Diary & Notes ~ Air Cell Detatched SHIPPED Chicken Eggs for incubation and hatching

[Sally Sunshine]

Hey hoping someone can help me, i had a chicken die the last day because i couldnt figure out what was wrong with it now two more are showing the same symptoms,

1. Stopped laying eggs.
2. Watery poo
3. Droopy tail feathers
4. The chicken gets very quiet almost seems tame and doesn't move to much and is fluffed up

These are the symptoms in the order i noticed them happening.

They aren't egg bound because i couldn't feel anything.
They are new chickens i bought in a farmers market a wile ago.

Any help is much appreciated, thanks.

how is her crop? watery? did she get into mold or moldy feed or bedding?

I just made the BESTEST Banana bread in the entire WORLD! YES I did! and so easy too!



Ingredients
BEAT:
½ cup butter, softened (stick)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar (plus some for tops)
Add:
2 eggs
4 well-ripened bananas
½ cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add:
2 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cinamin
½ teaspoon salt

grease 2 large loaf pans add batter 3/4 full
GENEROUSLY top with brown sugar

Bake 325 for about an hour for large loafs or 20 minutes for those 6" mini pans, when pick comes out clean they are done, after I see tops getting brown I layed foil loose over the top to keep from browning too much.

YUMMY sweetness!! I have tried so many and this one ROCKS IT!

OMG, going to the store for stuff.....LOL

Quote: Yeah, i have 4 of those, but they eat more than my EE's and are half the size. both groups producing about the same amount of eggs. I'm thinking I need more chickens for more eggs........Funny I don't hear anyone saying no more chickens.....

I bought those several years ago. Wal Mart was the only place to have them. Now no one has them.

I know. I can only get them when I visit my Dad. They get a bunch for me at $1.00 a box from the factory, and I bring them home in a cooler just to have them. I'm out right now

What happened? Did you guys get a big storm or something? I really should watch the news sometimes. I have no idea what's going on in the rest of the world!

Give her some eggs

She has been collecting the eggs today.

It sounds like Cocci. You need to start them on Corid right away.

Treat for Cocci. If they are new to you they probably were introduced to new strains of coccidiosis that they had not previously been exposed to. I don't think a round worm would be that fast but cocci can be. The main symptom is they look cold all fluffed up. Neck pulled in close to the body. They can have watery loose and even yellow foamy looking poo.

She has them out under the honey suckle bushes by the coop. I could watch her and the chicks all day long.
