wings Posted October 13, 2010 Report Posted October 13, 2010 Hi i was given a daughter to Red Danial 3 years ago she is a 97 pigeon and have had over that period 2 hens and 1 cock from her but she is now strugling to fill her eggs is there any medication or vitamins or any thing i can do to may be help her to maybe fill some more eggs?
Tony C Posted October 13, 2010 Report Posted October 13, 2010 I'm sure I read somewhere that a hen has a certain amount of Ovum, once all these are used she'll never lay another egg that'll hatch.
wings Posted October 13, 2010 Author Report Posted October 13, 2010 It doesn't sound very promising then. Ok thanks for the reply.
gd Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 are you sure it#s not the cock thats at fault - if the hens laying she#s done her bit - try her with another cock IMO
Wiley Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 are you sure it#s not the cock thats at fault - if the hens laying she#s done her bit - try her with another cock IMOhave to agree with this as i feel if her ovaries had stopped being produced shed have stopped laying
THE FIFER Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 if the hen is laying it looks like the cock, is she allowing the cock to tread her, make sure the feathers around her bottom is not too thick,
Wiley Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 also how old is the cock she is paired upto?
THE FIFER Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 yes ,if the hen is laying and the eggs are ok, it just the cock which is the problem, are they sitting them ok, not getting chilled, i would get a qhick lay from her and put them under another pair of birds just to try, but looks like the cock to me
