I suspect my chicks have cought the "mareks" or the “Gambuoro”. They seemed ok yesterday, but this morning, there's two who act really lathargic, and their wings are not in place. They were pretty cold, so I put them in the brooder. One of them is significantly smaller than the rest. They have...

In the last 2 days our ex-battery hen has been lethargic, her behaviour has changed (she usually comes to the coop door when I let her out and follows me round the garden but she has not moved much), she is not as alert and her poo has been watery and white. She hasn't been eating and her crop...

Our 3 year old hen Fajita who is one of our friendliest hens started acting standoffish yesterday. She also didn't go up on the roost last night, she was huddled in the corner on the floor. This morning she didn't come out of the hen house for breakfast. I took her off the roost and put her in...
