I've just bought 150 (whole flock) 10 months old ISA Brown hens from one woman (100 THB per hen). They are in pretty bad shape in my opinion - bad quality food and not really clean coop (but they looks happy) so I will have to first of all dust them all and maybe apply some Ivermectin for parasites. And make them some special food on the beginning (proteins and calcium) of course. I bought also 50 beautiful RIR hens and 3 roosters (120 THB per hen) from my neighbor who decided to keep only Thai chickens. There gonna be still space for around 100 chicks but no rush Btw does anyone know where I can buy fresh Stinging Nettle in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking good care, feeding nutritious feed and proper management can prevent almost all types of illnesses and diseases and provide healthy chooks and eggs. Ar they going to be free range or gaged, either way keeping their laying and sleeping areas clean is very important. I would recommend feeding them with layer pellets as their main food, with green veges and grains as a supplementary food, grated carrot is excellent for them and will give nice dark orange colored and flavorsome egg yolks. Get rid of any mites or lice a few on the birds is ok and normal but you need to avoid an outbreak /infestation. Treat your birds for worms also, you can feed them garlic regularly as well as a generic wormer that you add to their water. Things to look out for and preventative maintenance items would be; Rickets, You said they wern't fed well so ,rickets disease due to lack of vitamin D or proper ratio of calcium and phosphorus in their regular feed and you will know if they have it by, thin shelled eggs and lameness. Fatty Liver Syndrome, Also if the food was high in Carbohydrates e.g feeding the chooks with rice and corn, which is what most Thai's do, will greatly reduce the life of the bird and the eggs quality will be low. If your chickens look sick and miserable, not active/eating/drinking, has blood in their poo and exhibits other symptoms as listed here it is often safe to assume they have coccidiosis so you will have to treat all of them with a coccidiocidal medication. What do you want stinging nettle for? if you get it on you, you will experience the same as falling into a nest of bees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you want stinging nettle for? if you get it on you, you will experience the same as falling into a nest of bees Thanks a lot for all advice's I will most definitely take them under consideration and as I'm new to this business I have still a lot to learn. Those birds I said they weren't feed well are missing feathers next to the tail (almost whole flock) but I take few of them and checked for parasites - haven't spot any (I will treat them with DE and wooden ash bath anyway and special place for them to take bath themselves is ready - 75m2 coop and 240m2 running space) so my conclusion was that this can be because of poor food and maybe they pick each other (but entire flock?). And Stinging Nettle? I'm from Poland and I used to have contact with this plant thousands of times when I was kid. Not once burn me like hell... But in my country people give this to the chickens to eat. Special old timers (like my granny for example) who keeps chickens with out fancy food etc but chickens was happy and healthy and gave eggs always I remember as today like my granny mixed cut stinging nettle with boiled eggs and gave to small chicks which she hatched herself Regards.

lostinisaan Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 You can buy some nice ones from my school. The only problem with them is that they're always on their facebook pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
