Semi newbie questions...
Our four 8 weekers have really taken to traveling on this holiday weekend vacation... Seemed to love the new country digs and clover... But I realize this exposes them to another flock and also the neighborhood wild turkeys...so my first question is, is there anything I should look out for in terms of symptoms in case they picked up anything?
At the moment they've never looked better and are eating like I've never seen before...
Question 2, is it possible their peeping presence could have inspired broodiness in one of the resident hens at our PA place ? Or is it just a coincidence that she decided to start now...?[/quote
You have to just keep an eye on them now. Healthy chickens can be carriers of different things .
Just watch them for now. It could start with something as simple as change in stool.but then again giving them watermelon could cause that..
