Does anyone have an opinion whether the lavender birds look sick too? I smelled the one I found on the paper this morning. It was quite small but I opened it and it did smell a bit like puss. I gave her an antibiotic concoction this morning but wondering what you used. What dosage and how...

I am also wondering if Copper Sulfate kills cocci. Can I spray the ground with it and cover over with sand and solve the issue?

She has had a bad dose of worms. She had cocci I think and how she came to the barn initially. She has been on the preventative for MG that you recommend (nonsymptom bird). They say if one has it they all do. I have had all of those issues mentioned above in my flocks here and there (6...

see if I understand this lash thing. She is 7 months old and should be laying according to her hatch mates timing, 1 month now. She is a bit bigger now but roughly half their size due to her illnesses. (I treat the sick so to learn, I'm fairly new and want knowledge) is this correct?... She...

Dawg is she dying with this? Is it because she was so sick? The worms that came out of this lil gal was unbelievable. She hasn't ever laid.

I reckon I need to look that up, I don't know what it is. Seems since I penned up my babies I have all kinds of problems. I'm not losing them to coyotes and hawks but MG, Cocci, Mycosis all kinds of crap including Trichinosis(? it's like cocci microorganism) I can't win. Now I have an Oct 15...

I will have to check in the morning and dissect that one. I forgot I threw it into the fireplace and burned it.

I gave it like Dawg 53 said do on many of his posts. A pea-sized dose, I think it's 7 or 10 days apart. 2 times a month apart. Then I did the Ivermectin horse paste internally and on her feet between her shoulders and @ the vent about 2 weeks after the 2nd fenbdn dose. I did the copper...

Sorry for the yucky graphic pictures. I found another one when I went to clean up their poop board this morning. It's hard to see but I turned it over too and got a better shot from the back. This is morning poo. If it had been during the night it would be more dried up

Has anyone experienced this (see photo)? I was especially hoping Dawg 53 would chime in too. cause I follow his advice on most things I read up on but would like to see what everyone else thinks too, if they have an opinion or knowledge that will help. This Lil pullet was hatched back in late...

I got my idea for one of mine from this video. It was very easy and turned out a lot nicer than the pallet chicken houses I saw vids of. I plan to build another very large one. I got all of my pallets free and used scrap lumber for cleats and such. I used 1.50 fence boards to close the gaps...

double post and I can't figure out how to delete

Australian Shepherd ?

love the painting. I always think they look and act like lil armless people!
