Is there a feed that I can give my flock every once in a while to help control any intestinal parasites?
Just wanting something that will work and is easy to use. Thanks!
Here are a couple of pictures of her in the tub.
The second one shows her leg position. It never changes unless I move it.
She did better in the water today, and didn't fall over as much. She's eating well also.
Suggestions?
Thank you!
Yes, I've check her range of motion and it will move to a natural position, but only with effort on my part and it will not stay. I will post pictures soon.
Someone brought in an apparently injured gosling to my husband's work. (It's slightly possible to be a swan, or it could even be a duck.) It's left leg sticks straight out behind him/her and the foot it closed. Both feet have damage to the webbing (possibly ants by the looks of it). He uses the...
We have a meat chicken, rooster, that has developed a large blister-like swelling between two of his toes. (It's soft to the touch, like a blister) It doesn't appear to be from a bite or any type of injury. (I'll post a picture when I can catch him)
Not real sure what to do, if anything.
He's...
I found our gold lace frizzle polish chicken wandering in a parking lot. Rescued her and found her (saying her because I've assumed it's a hen) with a severely cutoff beak, lots of mites and no meat on her bones.
Treated her for the mites and feed her all she'll eat.
She fits in well with the...
We have 4 of those set, and have since the day after it happened. Nothing. I'm very frustrated as I want to get this predator now. Our girls are all being locked up at night now and we're on alert every night. Wouldn't you think this thing would have shown back up by now?
What type of predator do ya'll think this was?
We had a momma hen and 3 babies (about a month old). Last night, something came in and apparently ate whole (no evidence left) of the babies, and momma's feathers and small bits of meat were everywhere. All our other hens and fowl were fine. Not a...
I purchased some new day old chicks to put under my broody hen, who is sitting on infertile eggs.
I just learned of the large issue coming out now about hatcheries with salmonella. Eek!
What can I do, or should I do anything, to keep my flock healthy? There are no reasons I should believe that...
Thank you CTKen. I do plan to raise them myself if she doesn't accept them.
I really don't know how long it's been, but it's been a while. We have a goose that tends to be loud and steals attention from the hens, lol.
I will do the nighttime switcheroo when the time comes. :) Keeping fingers...
