Is it okay to ask multiple questions about my pet chickens at once?

Yes, you may post a question here on the public forum for free and one our experts, experienced with the species in question, will do their best to help you. Please provide as much information as possible to help them assess as well as possible. If you require a private, or in depth consultation you may book this for a small fee.

Hello. Chickens can indeed spread diseases, like Salmonella, Campylobacter, Mycobacterium & Chlamidia. But if you have a normal functioning immune system & wash hands after working & handling the chickens & eggs, you should be fine. Chickens can be a lot of work as you need a proper place to keep them safe, a good coop for the night, proper food in the correct ratios, ocassional worming & make sure you only purchase chicks that have been vaccinated for Mareks. There are wonderful books & websites for new chicken owners. I like https://www.mypetchicken.com & https://the-chicken-chick.com. Thanks for using PetCoach.

Thanks for reaching out about Hens. The basic thing is to establish a routine and keep to it, make all movements slow and deliberate, other distractions need to be kept minimized. Give it a few days. Good luck.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Unless it is the same expert who answered your initial question, we would not know the details of the case. For this reason, it is best to always add background information with each question asked. Good luck and have a great day!

Thanks for reaching out. Sound like you have a full house. 1. Birds will often bond together but continue to work with them in a quiet environ, offering treats to win and re-enforce trust. Toys, the radio or tv, can all assist with boredom. Setting up foraging toys so birds need to spend time looking for food. 2. There is no such thing as too big a cage. 3. Heating rocks are rarely approved for use, as they will eventually become faulty and get too hot, potentially damaging the animal. A heat lamp is recommended. 4. The bunny's litter box should be spot cleaned daily and full clean weekly. If you can smell it you waited too long. Good luck.

Hi, thanks for using PetCoach. In order to help, a little more information may allow us to guide you better. How old is the chicken? What is she eating? What is her environment? Is she inside or outside? The coloration of stool can change depending on what the bird is eating or sometimes due to parasites or illness. This website might give you a little bit more info https://the-chicken-chick.com/whats-scoop-on-chicken-poop-digestive/ But please feel free to repost your question, with a little more information on how long this is been going on, if the Bird is acting normally and eating well, and possibly some pictures of the chicken and her stool.

It's ok, you can ask as many questions as you like! That's what we are here for, to help. Cats typically don't like bread, but tend to love chicken. Give Jasper just the chicken, and still have him seen by a vet.
