Reproductive Disorders in Chickens

HomesteadHensandHoney

Hello! Episode 31 covers all my hive news (spoiler: it's not great), the loss of a hen, the introduction of a new hen, and finally some common reproductive disorders in chickens. I go over the reproductive system of our feathered friends, and talk about a few disorders that you might come across in your flock.

Please check out my website for a rundown of everything discussed (and photos!).
