Midget White poult. Anyone recognize this problem? Turkey is otherwise eating, drinking, acting fine. A few of them have the same symptoms but this one is the worst. We've been treating with colloidal silver with antibiotic treatment around the eye, and a 1/4 - 1/3 cc of Tylan 50. Just started...

So, we had two barred rocks that we got as day old chicks. They were great layers. In the fall, however, we found one of the barred rocks dead in the nesting box (age 1 1/2). We didn't really investigate the cause of death, I thought maybe she was egg bound since she was in the nesting box, and...

Hello! We have an Ameracauna, a Golden Campine, and 6 brown egg layers (2 RI Reds, 2 Barred Rock, 1 Brahma, 1 Australorp). We just got our first eggs two days ago. The Ameracauna escaped the chicken pen and laid in the front yard in a bag of leaves. I saw her nest and discovered a somewhat...
