Where would you get this antibiotic? Can you get it from Tractor Supply or would you have to order it online? My hen has an infected prolapse and I need a strong antibiotic...
I've had 3 Silver Laced Wyandottes and every one of them have turned out to be very flighty and don't like much attention at all. I tried to give them extra attention as chicks but they never seemed to take it in. They are quite pretty though.
I have had 2 JG and they were white. Both of them had very sweet personalities and I didn't even raise them from chick! (I bought them at a poultry sale.) They always let me walk up to them and hug them, they appreciated attention, they were happy to walk up to you (especially if you had...
The very first time this happened was with my hen, Puffy. Her bottom got swollen and I thought that she might've just been constipated or maybe just had a very big egg she needed to lay. So, I gave her some olive oil in case she was constipated and that didn't help. So, after that lasted for a...
Well, she passed away today. I almost wonder if it was an infection or something because she lost her appetite the day before she died. Thank you for the information though; I'll remember that for next time I have a problem with legs.
I have a chick that is four days old. For the first two, she loved running around and then all of a sudden she started getting, "floppy" and wasn't moving to get food or water. So, I tried feeding/watering through syringe which she was very happy to eat and drink from. Confused, I checked the...
I have a chick that is three days old. For the first two, she loved running around and then all of a sudden she started getting, "floppy" and wasn't moving to get food or water. So, I tried feeding/watering through syringe which she was very happy to eat. Confused, I checked the bitty and found...
We bought chicks from a hatchery and they arrived yesterday. This particular chick has been unable to walk, (either too weak or uncoordinated from splayed legs) and just recently today, I noticed that the poor thing has bloody poop. I heard that Corrid is a solution to Cocci but I don't know if...
I have a chick that is perky and willing to drink but has splayed legs. Is there some sort of splint to "set" its bones right? Is there a little wheelchair I can make? I need this quick because I don't think this baby can get around to eat or drink. Please help!!
My Blue Laced Wyandotte hen has a giant crop but is extremely skinny. I just now found out today because she's really fluffy and I didn't notice any behavior that would indicate a problem but I'm sure it's an issue. I felt her around and checked everywhere for issues but I found none besides the...
Thanks for the info! I've kept at this and we've been giving her intramuscular shots of Penicillin and the wound seems to have begun closing with less and less pus* as time goes on. Do I need to give her yogurt or something to get her bacteria back?
I used the liquid frontline using 1-2drops right below the spot on the head where the Roos grab but above where the hen can preen. We had a infestation that was on all of our 45 chickens including my 1 guinea. We didn't eat the eggs for 7 days and all of the bugs went away. The eggs and live...
