Stingless too I believe. See, not every Aussie animal is out to kill you!

They would be the only ones.

He passed away in my basement right after I brought him in and started to give him Corid. He died in my arms.

That's awful. I'm so sorry.

How do you administer corrid?

A dropper, because I could see he had no ability to drink on his own. I was hoping it might be enough to keep him going, but he passed away very quickly.

Thanks, I never imagined having chickens would be just one medical crapshow after another. We were able to overcome every issue we encountered until this week.

There is nothing worse. My Patsy died in my arms last year. She had been sick for a long time but it still wasn't any easier.

About this time of year as well. I believe. I may go look now.

I do believe that you are having a run of bad luck that maybe we can lesson with some changes. Post some coop and run pictures along with dimensions when you can. Maybe that will spark some ideas.

The small coop that has had many of the issues is a little TSC special, the other two are 4x6s. I'll post pics later today.

I was cleaning out a flower box yesterday and hosed down the dirt. Hattie thought it was a great place to cool off.
