    Whats wrong with Charlie?!

    I have a four-year-old rooster and he started making this motion with his mouth like he was trying to get something to go down his throat or had something stuck. Like as if i gave him peanut butter or something. This was awhile back and it stopped for awhile. Now he's doing it again but also it...

    What breed of chicken is this?

    I bought her from Wilco I was told that she was a Jersey Giant but I am having serious doubts about that. Any idea of what she could be?

    Help with Chicken Lice, tried Elector PSP

    I Strongly suggest Neem Oil. In a large tub or 5 gallon bucket Mix 1-1 1/2 tablespoons of oil per gallon of warm water (and a drop of soap to help the water and oil mix more thoroughly). Then place you bird in the mixture. Submerge everything up to the neck and hold them there for a couple...

    Spoke to Elanco regarding Elector PSP

    I know how you feel. We've been battling red mites, NFMites, and scaly leg mites. The coop, nesting boxes, and roosting poles. We sprayed the Neem Oil mix all over in there and it would kill the ones in the open. But they would be all over the sprayed surfaces the next night. I finally convinced...

    Spoke to Elanco regarding Elector PSP

    Update: I have had more success ridding my chickens of lice and mites by dipping my chickens for a few minutes in a bath of warm water and Neem Oil 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of water and a drop of soap to help the oil mix with the water) than Elector PSP, which has never been tested as a dip...
