Hi last night I heard my 3 week old Easter Egger screaming. I came in to see most of my flock running on her neck and body. I snatched her up as fast as I could but noticed she was flip flopping ending up on her back. Besides being trampled I've seem silkies with wry neck present this way. I...

Hi everyone. I bought two frizzle Easter Eggers. I know they can't guarantee each will frizzle but one of the chicks wings really started to frizzle out. The other not at all. Is there still time for the other to show frizzle or does it look like because the other isnt showing frizzle that only...

I got all my chick's vaccinated for Mareks at the hatchery. I usually do and I've NEVER seen this before. One of my buff orpington chicks seemed lethargic and sleepy. I gave her a small amount of sugar water to try to perk her up. Then I noticed she started sticking her leg out like paralyzed...

Anyone else use probotics on their chick's? I have used and still use probios multi species on my chick's. I noticed in a day their loose stool has firmed up and is less watery. It also puts beneficial bacteria in their gut. In theory it can fight the negative effects of bad bacteria they might...

Hi friends, just wondering if any of you folks have ever tried the no crow rooster collar? If yes, how well did it work? I know if adjusted correctly its "supposed" to significantly reduce the volume of the crow. Ive watched some videos and some seemed more successful than others. This year with...

Some of us live in very hot areas. I for one, do. Today is 107 degrees. It sometimes gets to 115 degrees here. Here is how ive been protecting my chickens from this heat.
