She just crossed the rainbow bridge 😭 Thank you for trying to help 💕

Thank you for your help! I will get some for my chook medicine bag. I’m so sad, I don’t think she will make it. I’ve been checking on her almost every half hour to an hour and she’s declined. She now can’t hold her head up/stand up and her mouth is sticky and some clear fluid is seeping out...

She eats and drinks when I hold it in front of her. My question is, both her eyes are swollen shut. Do I have to try to pry them open or should I leave them to heal on their own? They look crusty with old blood but when I try to wipe with a warm cloth/ ear buds it won’t come off and she shakes...

I will try my best to entice her to eat and drink thank you! Unfortunately it was an older chicken that managed to find a way into her enclosure.

Thank you! I just read that post! What a strong cookie!! Do you have any recommendations for triple antibiotic ointment? I’ve tried looking for Neosporin but there’s none around me. Would you happen to know the ingredients or generic so I can look for something similar?

WARNING GRAPHIC PHOTO !!!

Hi everyone, I need urgent advice, my partner went into the coop tonight and found our sweet Brahma pullet (4 months old) on the floor. She looked dead but was still breathing. On further inspection an older chook got into her enclosure and she scalped her to the point that some of her scalp...

Just an update for everyone zoomys necropsy came back. She had a birth defect that mainly happens in dogs/cats/humans but nearly no chickens have had this to their knowledge. They said she had a stricture with webbing (like scar tissue) in her oesophagus. The way they described it was think of a...

Thank you so much for all the hope and wishes. The vet said that the part between her crop and stomach (the long tube thing “second oesophagus” I’m not sure what it’s actually called sorry!) was blocked/tiny so hardly any food and water was getting through. So she was starving to death slowly...

Thank you for your suggestion and thank you for wanting to help. The vet did normal X-rays and X-rays with contrast and they are abnormal. There looks to be a blockage but there was nothing outlined on the X-ray. They said it could be adhesions but it would have shown and it hasn’t. They said...

She’s back at the vet for emergency care. She would throw up all food and water (she loves drinking water more). They will do X-rays and send a dye through her body to see how it travels to see if there’s a blockage. Hopefully this tells us something. She has lost over 100grams of weight since...

They sent her home with an anti fungal for another day which makes the 7 days and antibiotics. She’s not improving still throwing up and minimal poop. They want to see her again tomorrow but there is so much back and forth. I don’t know why she isn’t getting better and the poor thing looks so...

Thank you so much for this. I will take it into consideration for other chookies. We got miss Zoomy back today from the vet. Her thrush is cleared but her crop isn’t getting any better. They said she has crop stasis and they think it has something to do with the duodenal part of her body. We...

Thank you very much! I just got an update from the vet. He said it’s called thrush and it’s through her system. It would be secondary to whatever is going on to stop the food emptying from her crop. Which we have no idea if or what it is. They said she is a little perkier today but will still...

Unfortunately no she didn’t specify a name or anything. I rung them before and said they’ve emptied her crop as much as they could but it’s still not emptying on its own. They have given her antibiotic and fungal shots but they’re not going to feed her overnight which I’m a little worried about...
