Re: [CHICKENS-101] Re: Sebright Report: Briarpatch Farm

 

George, Have you tried adding a little bit of ground of dog food to their chick feed?  I would also add b complex to their poultry vitamin water, and give them digging room.  I think you gave them a pen they can go outside they can dig and dust bathe in, right?

Di, I can understand that when a bird is introduced to an existing flock it's life is on the line but these chicks have been together from day one. I bought these at the grain store and it's possible that the big one came from a different shipment. If it's a few days older that would explain the size difference but not why it's being attacked. It appears to be developing a comb so it may be a Roo. Will post new Pics
