Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

I need the help of experts here, Junebug, the pullet I've had less than 48 hours, has diahrria, sneezing, and drinking a lot! What is this?!?

The first question is do you have the new birds quarantined? Second do you have vet access?

 

[ILoveDaffy]

Yes, and I took her inside. Poppy is with the others. Yes, but I would rather do this at home. The vet only does poultry sometimes.

In between medical issues how about some fluffy butts.

To be clear you already had her with the other chickens. You have only just now removed her, correct?

Wonderful.

Since they only came home 2 days ago they are alongside, not touching the big ones, a few minutes ago she was taken inside away from poppy.

Do you ferment your feed? Mine get this every morning. Once you let them out of the run they may pick up a little. A few days in the week I add a half or a tablespoon of cider vinegar to their half a gallon water. I'm just sharing what I do as an idea for you.

Thanks, Marie.

Sorry mich, I think it’s hard to know what is the right thing to do at times.
See how she goes with the new meds and go from there, don’t count her out yet
You have the weekend to look forward to

Thanks. I am looking forward to allowing them to enjoy their chicken lives this weekend.

all you can do is the best you can with the information you have. In that regard, I feel you've done right.
Hoping this weekend of live and spoils does them (and you) a world of good

Thank you, Red.
