I live in Mississippi, it is usually very hot and humid in the summer and very mild in the winter. I raise Cochin Bantams, Silkies, Seramas, and Silver-Laced Wyandottes. I have no problem with these at all. My sister-in-law and I share our coops and responsibilities. She really wanted to raise Polish. We have done everything we can do and can not raise these chickens!!!! Our coops are warm and dry. Our chickens are spoiled rotten, but the Polish drop off like flies. They will be perfect one day, sickly acting the next, and then dead the day after. They are in their own pens and they are very sanitary. What are we doing wrong? My other chickens are always healthy. I have gotten the Polish from a variety of different breeders and hatcheries. So, I know they didn't come from an unkept environment. Are they not good chickens to have in such a high humidity? It is 70 here one day and below freezing the next. Is it our climate? Are there any more Southerners on here that raise these chickens? Are you having trouble with them also? What are we doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance!!!!!!!
