    Muscovy gender help

    Hello friends. Can anyone identify the gender of this Muscovy please? I thought this color indicated female but the more I research the more confused I become. Thanks in advance!

    Hen with swollen face

    Thank you. Is it okay for the rest of the flock to take the medicine also? And ducks? They use the chickens drinkers

    Hen with swollen face

    No new additions and I haven’t noticed anyone else with any issues either. I do have mareks in my flock and this particular hen is not vaccinated because she is one of my originals.

    Hen with swollen face

    Hi everyone, tonight I noticed my 3 year old barred rock hen, Angela, has a swollen face on both sides. She also appears a bit pale. She hasn’t exhibited any other strange behavior. Does anyone know what this could be? Thanks in advance!

    Current Michigan air quality and egg production

    Hello friends. We live in southwest Michigan and currently the air quality is very bad, the AQI has been in the 200s this week. It is very smoky outside and I noticed this week that my girls aren’t laying like normal. Yesterday we only got 1 egg. I don’t mind because I’m just here for the...

    12 week old sick silkie pullet

    We live in southwest Michigan and it has been hot lately so maybe it could be weather. Right now she isn’t interacting with anyone. I did notice that one of the big girls was chasing her yesterday trying to peck her. I am getting corid on my way home. Is it okay to treat her even if we aren’t...

    12 week old sick silkie pullet

    Hello friends, I have a 12 week old silkie pullet (I’m not 100% sure it’s a pullet but I’m leaning towards that) who started acting odd Sunday evening. She has stopped eating and drinking and will just stand or lay down not moving. On Monday I gave her a drench and force fed some eggs. Yesterday...

    Chicken died from mites?

    Thanks everyone for the information. When I found out we had mareks in the flock I knew I was going to experience losses eventually but it never gets easier.

    Chicken died from mites?

    We used this one. My husband did the calculation of mixing it. He said less than 1/2 an oz to probably roughly 3-4 gallons of water. I used the DE cause it’s all I had when I first noticed them, but I’m going to add some dust to my emergency kit now. Can lice kill them?

    Chicken died from mites?

    Hi everyone. Earlier this week I discovered mites on my 1 year old Easter egger. We dusted everyone with DE and then last night I bathed her and was going to do a dip in permethrin. I soaked her in soapy water and then clean water for a rinse. When she was in the clean water she started to...

    Silkie rooster mating

    Oh my girls are bigger than the roosters, except my bantam but she’s not much smaller than them. That’s so sad about your little girl, I’m getting silkie hens this year so I’ll be sure to watch them

    Silkie rooster mating

    Hello friends. I have 2 silkie roosters in a mixed flock of hens, no silkie hens. Will my roosters be able to mate with them? They are almost a year old I think and my girls are almost 2 years old. The boys have exhibited some mating behavior, running around the girls, chasing them with their...

    The Ethel saga

    That makes a lot of sense. Ethel is doing much better now but she is spoiled rotten. She knows all she has to do is scream during treat time and I will make sure she get just as many treats as her sisters. She refuses to eat treats off the ground, only out of my hand. I would be lying if I said...
