Show off your Peas!

just got done redoing the bedding with straw..put down seven dust...and they dont look like they are doing it as much......but what i forgot to put in the problem part...is that they are opening and closing their mouths really fast when they shake their heads and scratch at their face....could this be capillary worms...? i did put down seven dust earlier....man i cant wait for them to get on sand in the new coops...seems like with all the birds there is less problems with everything since i added sand....they have at the feed store liquid stuff for mights that i could get and put in a sprayer and spray them in the morning...i think i will get some and do this....

kskingbee i had a baby chicken that got feed in its eye and i noticed it was swollen so i took it out and put it under slow running water a week later she is doing better...never had that happen before....also my peas have no swelling of the face or discharge or anything like that...still learning tho...

thanks for the advice...and still no pea eggs...got 30 pheasant eggs

It could be the beginning of a respiratory problem. Keep an eye on the sinus area and if it begins to swell start them on Tylan.
 
will do...thanks again...building a bunch of hoop coops right now...getting show quality barred rocks, and white crested black polish...

no pea eggs yet...bummer...
 
I have no idea why at least five of my seven Cameo hens are laying and none of the other hens are not. Well, I did get one IB egg about two weeks ago but that was all from them. It just occurred to me that IB egg could have been a Cameo egg that rolled under the divider into the I pen.

Anyone think that some colors lay sooner or later than others?

ETA: Last year I didn't get my first egg until May 1st. This year March 22nd. and I had those Cameo hens then too.

I only heard that greens lay late, but i still see people getting eggs from them early.
