    Chicken in cow trough

    Found my chicken in the water. She is cold. Shivering. I rinsed her in lukewarm water and have her in the house, wrapped in a towel. What else can or should I do? Temps today were in the 30s ans went up to 50s. Not sure how long she was in the water but for sure several hours.

    Roundworm?

    i found two of these worms on the poop board this morning. Google says this is a roundworm? How do I treat?! I have 4 week old baby chicks (they still sleep with momma chicken in their own area, no worms there). Do I treat them as well?
