Hello Everyone! I am so glad to have found you! My family and I recently moved to a new home with land. We have always wanted chickens so bought some and incubated some as well. We have two children and two dogs. The children are happy to help with the chickens and I would definitely say we consider them like pets, each having names that my children have given them.

ADVICE PLEASE - All has been going well until I notice something with one of our 2 month old pullets. Her eye has become swollen. I read some of the threads about swollen eyes and have used saline and VetRX for the last 5 days. While it did get a little better, it is still not 100%. And now, she and another chicken have discharge from the nostrils. Of the 6 pullets who are all together, two have the discharge (one has a the eye issue as well), two have runny stools and two seem to have a cough. In doing some further research I purchased CORID (amprolium) and put in in all their water yesterday. I also read that perhaps Tylan 50 should be considered. I ordered it and it should arrive tomorrow. My husband will have to do the injections because I am a wuss. Are we doing the right thing? Should we be using
