    I'm new to backyard chicken tendering

    EMERGENCY PLEASE HELP ASAP

    Thank you for the prayers. Please, listen…I have been up and down this emotional roller coaster way too many times. She is still sick. She still needs to not lay anymore eggs to heal. She still needs antibiotics to combat the bacteria in her coelomic space, and her oviduct.

    Review by 'triciayoung' in article 'Increasing Vitamin E in Chicken Feed: A Practical Approach for Breeders'

    Well-written informative article. I did not know about the role of vitamin E in fertility, but I did know about it for the pathologies you listed. I will be looking forward to seeing if your statistics change for these pathologies. Thank you.
