I feared this :( Thank you for your help!

This story just keeps unfolding... separate from the tube feeding chicken, I noticed another chicken with a HUGE booty issue. I had noticed it a few days ago (my reference of diarrhea) but regrettably I ignored it between the mites, the previously sick one I lost, and tube feeding the other...

Thank you! Glad it works for you. I was going to spray them at night. How important is it to get the skin vs the feathers? Do I just spray vent, under wings, behind neck, and bald spots? Or do I move feathers out of the way and make sure I'm getting the skin? I was going to take all hay and...

Worm results are back (attached) and show Ascarid eggs. Even though it's classified as a "small" load, do you think should I treat the flock for them? Or is this normal? Been looking around at other posts and see mixed thoughts. Thank you!!

Thank you. Will do all of these tips!

Thanks so much. Bullying and feather-plucking are definitely coming into play with the weak ones. I did check last night and there's lice or mites, can't tell which. They were REALLY tiny, little beige creatures on the skin. I could see them with with a flashlight where the feather patches were...

Thank you so much. I will check tomorrow for mites. I see everyone eating throughout the day except for the two in question, but I'll try a crop check before food comes out in the morning to make sure I'm not missing anything and crops are emptying. After reading up on it more, LL seems highly...

❤️ I love them so much too. Thanks for sharing. That's very good info to have on hand. This is exactly the sort of thing I was looking for, but also unfortunate that it seems on point. I wasn't familiar with this but felt like there MUST be a sort of poultry virus that can cause these clinical...

Thanks so much for this info and your reply. They eat a 16% layer feed. There's definitely some bullying and feather-eating so I do have a smaller feeder of grower feed (18%-20% protein) available when I notice this kind of feather loss or during molts. I don't give them much grower feed and...

Hi, I have 11 golden comets (4 years old) and know that they're on borrowed time now. I just have a hunch something contagious and possibly preventable/treatable is going on. They are really healthy birds and were doing fine up until the last few weeks. Things I've noticed and deemed normal...
