Definitely will switch over to all flock feed next payday and take a look at that article. Thank you all for responding and taking a moment to help me out @Eggcessive @cottagecheese @microchick and @Melky.

Wow. I feel so bad that I've basically been slowly killing her. :( Next payday (Wednesday) I'll pick of a bag of all flock feed and switch her and her flockmates over to it. It's just not in the budget before then. She and my 4 year old RIR lay on average two, sometimes three eggs a week each...

I will definitely do that. So sorry to hear you have gout.

Her feet have looked like this for at least two-ish years if not three, but it has gradually gotten worse over this time. I got her as a four or five year old, so I'm unsure of what her diet was before she came into my care. Her diet as long as I've had her has consisted of either Purina Layena...

Hello, I have an elderly (around 7-8 year old) red sex-link hen, and for the last couple of years her feet and ankles have become more and more swollen. I don’t believe it’s bumblefoot, because there are no wounds or cores on the pads of her feet. Her foot pads, ankles, and toes are just...

Good to hear. :) Thank you!! Thanks Brownie! I suck at it too. I talked wayyyy to quickly, stumbled over some words, and internally panicked so I wasn’t taking time to breathe, meaning I’d randomly gasp for air. Oh well. :idunno

Struggling through this week. Next week is finals and I’m both trying to prepare and procrastinating for them.

Same girl! I haven’t been on here in MONTHS. I miss it!

How’s your day going?

Same! Right now I’m procrastinating on my 7 minute informative speech I deliver tomorrow for speech class.

Hey! How’ve you been? :)

Howdy Dan! :highfive:

BROWNIE!! (How’ve you been?)

Also hi everyone! I’m not dead, just haven’t been on BYC in FOREVER. :lol:

I’m so sorry Sarah! :hugs It’s always hard losing them. I lost another one of my flock (Feathers) in August, meaning I’m down to 3 birds total, and only one left my original 6 (Snow White.)

Ahhhh, that makes sense. I’ll have to pick up some vanilla air fresheners when I go to the store next time and try them out. My chicken coop is 90+ years old and made of chinked whole cedar logs, and sadly when they made it they didn’t consider adding vents, which has left me dealing with some...

Ooooh I like that idea with the air fresheners! It sounds like an awesome longer lasting fly deterrent for the coop. On average, how long do you find the fly deterring aspects of the air freshners last?

With spring finally having officially arrived in my neck of the woods, :celebrate I figured I'd share with you all my super easy fly spray recipe. It's natural and non-toxic, unlike the flysprays that can be bought at feed stores. I use this stuff to detour flies around my coop, and spray it on...

Yeah, she sadly is. :( They can be, although Ruby decided it would be a good idea to bite my grandma the other day. :lol: :oops: Awwwww:( I did! How've you been?

:hugs :)
