    Unsure what’s up with our hen…

    Hey all!! I made a post a little while back about my hen having worms. We treated for worms and she seemed to be getting better!! We did the dose each day for 5 days and then we did one more at the 14 day mark just to make sure we got everything. Worms were never present in poo. Now she is...

    Are these worms or something else?

    I got these from the back end of a 2 year old Whiting True Blue. She's been acting off the last few days - sleeping apart from the rest of the flock, slow to come out of the coop in the mornings and slow to come for food and treats, and a very messy back end. Are these worms or something else...

    Chickens randomly dying

    Hi everyone, this is my first flock so please take it easy on me.

    Is this a worm???

    I cracked an egg this morning and found this inside the white of the egg. Is this a worm? All poops are and have been normal and healthy looking. No sign of worms in their poops at all.

    Unwell hen-poop pics included

    Hi all, thank you in advance for your help. One week ago I brought in a 10 month old hen after finding green poop on the dropping board a number of mornings.

    Stringy bits in chicken water. Larvae or parasites?

    Never had my chicken water dish look like that. Drained water out to get a closer picture but still says nothing to me. Seeing that my chickens are having health issues i want to make sure these are just some bug larvae or eggs not chicken parasites. Kindest regards

    Molting Hen Is Acting Poorly - Treatment Needed?

    My 4.5 y/o EE, Darla, is going through a pretty extreme molt. She's at the bottom of the pecking order and always pretty awkward, but is acting even more confused and flustered than usual, and is otherwise very low energy. This is normal for her during molts. However, I noticed the following...
