    Year old Sultan hen spinning in circles, staggers, and turning head side to side? Ideas?

    I am having problems trying to include videos, figures. I don't believe the breeder vaccinated for Mareks. I was thinking wry neck, that's why I mentioned the vitamins. Question, I saw the softgels before, how do I give her that and the 1/4 tablet B complex? I have liquid Vitamin E, would that...

    Year old Sultan hen spinning in circles, staggers, and turning head side to side? Ideas?

    My year old Sultan hen just started doing this. Walks couple of feet like disoriented, then spinning around in circles. Stops, staggers, stands there turning her head side to side. Her half sister hit her head when baby, breeder told me before I got her. She turns her head in a similar fashion...

    How to get Mandarin duck eggs to hatch in incubator?

    Soooo happy, I finally did it. Helped 3 out of their eggs towards the end. 1 wasn't strong enough but the other 2 made it. Got 9 total out of 13 eggs. So excited.

    How to get Mandarin duck eggs to hatch in incubator?

    Ok, update. I found an old post that had some info. Get humidity up while lockdown. I never got it really high before. Usually around 65. Now I got it to around 75-80. Also, add a tablespoon of bleach to the humidity water pan. That helps kill any bacteria floating around the incubator. I guess...

    How to get Mandarin duck eggs to hatch in incubator?

    My Mandarin duck pair had eggs in the box with the hen sitting on them. About a week and a half into her sitting, she decided to stop sitting on them. I waited all day to see if she would go back to them. I took the eggs and put them into my sportsman incubator. There was development in all 13...

    Sulmet Powder? Is it still available?

    I found a Bird Sulfa that was in pigeon supplies that looked similar to Sulmet. I might look into that. Thanks.

    Sulmet Powder? Is it still available?

    Thank you, I kind of had a feeling about that. I remember when all that happened with certain meds.

    Sulmet Powder? Is it still available?

    I used to have some Sulmet powder then ran out. Went to Tractor Supply to get some more but no longer have it. I have tried places online but can't find it. Is it now something can only get from a veterinarian? If so, is there something comparable to it that I can get myself? I already have...

    Can Erkel Francolin be in trios or just paired up?

    I have a female Erkel I've had for few years now. Not a whole lot of luck with fertile eggs. I tried a different male but now wonder if she is real picky about her mate. Could it just be the male is overly doing it and needs another female in the pen? I don't think she gets it that she needs the...
