    Riboflavin feed and treat suggestions?

    Did you have any luck with this? I have two hens exhibiting what sounds like the same thing as yours. One has been for months, unfortunately.

    Young hen inconsistently sneezing

    We switched to using fermented feed months ago which got the other sneezers to finally stop sneezing while eating, so that shouldn't be the issue. It's been at least 2 months since we noticed her regular sneezing and no one else has the symptoms.

    Young hen inconsistently sneezing

    We have a younger White Crested Splash Polish hen (~20 weeks) who sneezes randomly throughout the day. I just heard her having a sneezing fit at 6am but typically her sneezes only occur while eating. We've had other hens sneeze while eating (food gets in the wind pipe) and they sneeze/shake...

    5 wk old with prolapse

    We have a hen that this happens to from time to time. When it happens continuously, I use Prep H and push it back in, then hold it for 10 seconds. Last time this fixed it for months before it started happening again, but I haven't seen it get bad again (defined as multiples times per day, every...

    Buff Brahma pullet with droopy tail

    Our lovely Buff Brahma is about 14 weeks old now and we've noticed that her tail has been droopy ever since it came in. If we pick her up and push her tail up in the "proper" position, it'll stay for maybe 15 seconds then slowly droop back down. She seems fine otherwise. Clean vent, no...

    My Polish Journey

    We got our first Polish this weekend! She's about 2 weeks old but is still small. I wanted to find advice for how to keep her head feathers trimmed when she gets older and found this thread. Will stay subscribed!

    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    Been a while but thanks for checking in! We've lost three girls over the past year but our flock of 8 is going strong otherwise. They're all Mareks positive but I think the ones remaining are all vaccinated, so we should be ok there. We've been experimenting with fermented feed lately in an...

    Did she ever get better? We have a Barred Rock with the same symptoms right now and are perplexed.

    Lets talk automatic doors for the chicken coop!!

    I couldn't be later to this thread but we also use the Omlet door and LOVE it. Keeps us from having to worry about our girls seeing the wrong side of a predator at sundown if we're not at home. It was super easy to retrofit onto the wood coop I built a year and a half ago and creates a nice seal...
