Hello Backyard Chickens Community!!

[Debbie292d]

I just became a chicken mama 2 days ago! I live in southeast Michigan. I have 2 Silkie chicks, Miss. Dolly (white) and Miss. Betty (black). I hopped on board so I could learn more about my sweet chicks. Currently Betty has a protruding vent. I'm hoping with she will be ok. She seems to be eating and drinking just fine. I have been reading a few Q & A's and may try some coconut oil. So glad to be a part of this community

Welcome. I am certain @Debbie292d will respond soon. She is a silky expert.

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!

I see @coach723 has given you expert advice on your ER thread. You were right on with the coconut oil thought though!

I sure hope your silkies recover quickly.
