My dad has been using garlic to cure his sick pigeons for the past 40 years. It works great. Just cut it up in small pieces about the size of corn and force a couple down their throats. I've seen pigeons on their death bed, not even able to walk. A day after a garlic treatment they looked 100% better and survived. And yes, always separate from flock so they dont get picked on or spread it.

One of my favorite hens died and when another was not looking well I took a stool sample to my vet to be tested for coccidiosis. Negative. But after upping her calcium (oyster shells and grubs) and adding probiotics (yoghurt, fermented feed, and scobies) she passed a lash egg (very weird) and now she has really bounced back. I'm so glad that I did not cull her and sad that I wasn't more proactive with the other one.

[@amberkat8147]

What is a lash egg?

[@Ravencall]

@@amberkat8147 It is a mass of pus and tissue that gathers in an infected and inflamed oviduct. The proper name is Salpingitis. Sadly, after she felt well for a while she sickened again and died :-(

I add Apple cider vinegar and garlic to one of my waterers. That seems to keep them bright and healthy.

[@NaturesAlwaysRight]

Nice suggestion, ACV is a fantastic supplement for chickens I've heard. I drink it quite often too!

[@CarolinaGirlCreationZ]

@Dragon Gaming if you have one that is dehydrated, I'd recommend the product I linked below. You can get it at Tractor Supply Stores. ACV and garlic water aren't for dehydration as far as I know. I've only ever used garlic water for an impacted crop, and I've never used ACV in their water. I think some people say it's supposed to help naturally kill worms but from what I've read and learned, it's not true. In terms of dehydration though, I'd recommend keeping the below item on hand, along with Nutri-Drench. www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/rooster-booster-vitamins-and-electrolytes-with-lactobacillus

My mother and grandmother, in growing turkeys, used black peppercorns as an antibiotic. decades, if they had "x" chicks, they also became "x" adults. The pepper is administered, one bean, every day, from the first days (logically, by administration ... forced. one bean in the beak of the chicks, and aimed to swallow it). Valid recipe, verified (also for decades) on chicken.

I had two chickens with impacted crops. One was shaking and falling over. I removed them from the flock and set them up in thr bathroom. I took food away. Offered water only that first day with probiotics, acv, and electrolytes in the water. They drank. Crop did not go down. So I had to vomit my chicken which is risky but it worked. The sickest one was doing better n the next day I did it to the other one. Day three I fed them egg yolk for nutrition. Day 4 they were pooping up a storm, bocking at me and trying to fly out of the bathroom. Later day 4 I removed the food dish from the run and put them back. They ate scraps but very little so they didn't get back into that blockage. It's been a week and they're both fine now. Thank God. 😊

Rosemary or Calendula is good for their skin or topical in a salve. ❤

Hi there! I just found this particular video and your channel 2 days ago. This is my first time raising chickens and I've already had a lot of adversity. In my couple day old chicks, I had a little chick with curled feet who wasn't eating or drinking and I went to YT. Taped her feet and she ate and drank the 2nd day, but then she was gone the 3rd. Then another chick developed severe cross beak and many recommended to euthanize chick if I was going to incubate in the future, so I did with many, many tears! So, the other day, I noticed one of my favorite hens and who happens to be the largest, acting exactly like you describe in this video. My remaining chickens are now almost 10 weeks old. I always have medicinal grade oregano oil and garlic is a staple. So, I had those and my chick waterer, so I made up the garlic, oregano oil water and put it out. Then I was on a mission to get a LOT of Kimchi. So, I went to the city to the Asian market, got 2 big jugs of Kimchi and then to Tractor supply to get another small waterer and put out the Kimchi secret sauce. My chicken is completely transformed! She is back to her old self and then some. I know this is long, but I cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful, natural remedy that saved one of my favorite gals! I am following you now sir! LOL! By the way, this chicken looks like a bald eagle, except the white is golden on her....she's beautiful! Many thanks!

[@phoenixkali]

Diatamaceous earth is good for detering mites too. Put some in an old wash liquid bottle or jar with holes in top and sprinkle over their bedding, and squirt in their warm places. Under wings, tail feathers an back of their necks. If they've been preening alot and pulling out or eating feathers they need heavier protein diet and will stop laying. I put them on strict diet for a week of chick pellets and they all grew back and were happy again.😊

I want to make market garden like you in next year and also thinking about geting poultry, but its hard to decide for me should I keep chickens or ducks. Ducks are healthier than chickens, their eggs are better. But chickens can made compost fast and don't need so much water. Ducks can use a bathtub as a swimming pool, and they will poop there, so water from that bath tub will be excellent for fertigation. From the other hand ducks will eat slugs. Salad green also, so free ranging in beds is not a good option. Hard to decide. Justin Rhodes know a lot about chickens but I think that you already know his channel. Cheers mate.

I'd say go with which eggs you can make more profit after all costs in your market if that's what the main purpose of them is. If it's for soil then I'd say chickens are better. Ducks are better for orchard systems in my opinion. Free ranging in the garden is not an option.

@@NaturesAlwaysRight thanks mate I finally decided. I will have mixed chicken flock for color eggs for market.

Colloidal silver! I use it on myself, dogs, birds, etc! Actually make my own, swear by it. Do your own research, form your own opinions.

Silver is a heavy metal and toxic if overused.

Epsom salt bath for an egg-bound hen???

Did you continue giving this garlic oregano water for a month until she was all better?

I now have 3 chicken hens, but unfortunately they are not very strong. They have been treated with antibiotics for their airways 3 times in the last 3 months... We just keep them because we like the sight of a chicken running around in our garden, so killing them won't be an option as we are way to attatched to them. But I am looking for a list of herbs/natural products that I can give them, just to boost their immune system/ help them stay more healthy. To you happen to know a website where I can find that? Thank you in advance!

Does the anti bacterial nature of the garlic and oregano not cancel out the good bacteria in the LAB? I only ask because I drink milk kefir and have been advised not to use honey to sweeten as it’s also antibacterial...oh yeah, honey! I almost exclusively use natural remedies on all my livestock, including homeopathic as well as essential oils, so much resistance to modern medicines, antibiotics, wormers etc. It’s not a common approach here in U.K. and home steading is still quite a small movement so I get a lot of my info from US sources, you are much further ahead of the game!

[@NaturesAlwaysRight]

Yes you are right they would cancel the effect over time, I was just trying to show some different ways of helping them I should have explained that. I need to check under a microscope to really give a real answer, but I think it would take a while for the garlic and oregano to totally wipe out the LAB, they drink it up quickly. I asked on the KNF group on FB and they give nutrients like WCP, WCA, FPJ + LAB together and do natural antibiotic/viral in a separate waterer.
