I've had 3 chicks die & i have another who was doing great this morning, but she's doing so well now. As I was holding her & feeding the other birds I happened to look at my oyster shells which I had fed to all the birds rhis past week, had sunflower seed hulls, thanks to the mice i keep trying...
I need to get somethings off my chest & get it out of my head so to say! I have lost several birds before as I am only going in to my 2nd year owning chickens. But a friend had said to my Boyfriend that I need to not get so attached to my chickens like I have become attached. Backstory I'm 44...
This is the 1st time that my 2 5 week old Sizzlers are in the big coop with my other 10 & 12 week older Chicks! (Silkies & EE) We started the introductions earlier with them in the chicken tractor & now that the others have gone to roost & it's dark, I have moved them...... but now we are...
Ok my lil Splash's nose looks a little swollen & maybe a little black & blood & she kinda sounds like little sneezes & i can't make out her nostril on the left side any suggestions will be appreciated.
Thank you
