    Ever heard a hen CROW?

    Ok. Some of the birds that I inherited are Wyandotte chicks. I know for sure that one is a rooster, but now I’ve got a “hen“ crowing. I’m attaching pictures and will attach a video later. Any help sexing these animals would be much appreciated. it should be noted, that all, but one have pea combs.

    I am using the permethrin also. The mites are dead an no live. We use wood chips on the floor of the coop and fake grass mats in the laying boxes

    We just lost 6 of my girls, turns out the mites lowered their immune systems and coccidiosis killed them. We treated the whole coop for mites and then have been putting antibiotics (natural) see pic below for the antibiotic. Found on Amazon, and a medication called Coci in their water. We have...

    Bantam Chicks slowly dying 1 by 1, at a rate of 1 per week, seemingly without reason

    I have been having similar deaths in my 2 year old chickens since Tuesday. Nothing has changed except we introduced some chickens that we inherited a month ago to the coop. My 10-12 week old chickens ( still in a separate coop) are doing well and my 3 week old chicks ( just moved to a different...

    Chicken with a broken leg

    What symptoms? You've lost birds over the course of a few days... Throwing up - that's a digestive issue. What do you feed? We feed a local feed, called pullen. Any chance the birds ate moldy feed, compost, something dead/rotten? No we have looked. Look for lice/mites as well. They have all...
