I have just the one rescue leghorn. No eggs from her in 6 months. Not her fault. Poor thing was not fed properly before coming here. The others that came with her also do not lay. All are just over 2 years old.

Have you tried to pump them up on some protein try some canned salmon

Sorry rj had to do it

Thanks guys
Jammer is already asleep. I'm terrified she may have aspirated.

We are all hoping for the best possible outcome. Hopefully she didn't and if she did just a little she'll cough it up.

Yup! Actually canned mackerel. Canned salmon here is nealy as expensive as crab meat. A tuna can size is 4 bucks last time I looked. The first year of their lives the feed was 80% whole corn and 20% layer pellets. The cheapest they could get too. Walking into where they were housed the mice were literally running up my legs.

No to mention the poo, dirty water and flies.

I been thinking of @Rubysword and Jammer all day. Poor chickie under the weather and Ruby not feeling well either.






I am off to bed. Morning comes early here.

It's pretty hard to offend me I was born with thick skin. Personally I think it's ridiculous that people get so offended by so many things these days. I told a lady at one of my vendors office the other day that she had a bat in the cave and nobody else could hear me and she got offended. Wth next time I'll just let it flap in the wind

My leghorn pretty much stopped laying. I'm getting one a week from her for the last month weird

I'm down to just one girl laying. 1 is broody and 4 are molting.
Ugh.

You need some teeny tiny ukuleles for them to sing some cowboy songs around that lamp.

Why is it they don’t freak out at night in the coop, but they freak out during the day when I go in the run???
