Hello, I was wondering if anyone has ever downloaded an android app called "SaveTheChicken". It is supposed to use artificial intelligence to identify disease in poultry and almost instantly give you back the results. If this technology is legit, this is a HUGE asset for all of us chicken...

Update - Thank you for the above article on the air sac. Will have to give her a good look over. I have saved it to my computer. I tried to make an appointment today with our vet. They didn't have any openings so I left a message for the vet to call me back so I could explain her situation. He...

Earlier today, my husband let our puppy out without the cable. He said the dog rammed into one of our chickens. Well, I noticed that one of the chickens has labored breathing right now. I know earlier today, she was fine with no issues. There could be something stuck in her windpipe or who...

A few weeks ago, I noticed my duck's bumblefoot was starting to form again. When I went to the vet for her yearly check up recently, I showed him the new bumps. He prescribed "Healx Soother Cream Plus." This cream greatly reduced the bumps already and if I continue to follow through by applying...

Hello cazsteggles2012, I am still treating my duck for bumblefoot and it is now almost gone. I put enough antibiotic to go into the hole where the cap was removed. You want to lightly swab the DMSO over it. If the q-tip is fully saturated and you are going over the antibiotics, it will suck them...

Hello again. So glad you got to the bottom of things. I give my duck and bird gatoraide (which is filled with electrolites) every now and then when they need it. Just give in small amounts. I have bathed my duck in Epson salt. In fact, it works great for treating bumblefoot. I use about a couple...

Wow so sorry to hear about your Drake. It's bad enough dealing with Margaret's problem. I don't know how many ducks you have, but I would definitely isolate the 2 sick ducks from the rest of the flock. It sounds to me like it could be some kind of virus. Ducks are usually pretty resilient (more...

Wow! I never heard of that condition. I did a search on google and found the following post... "~~Our chicken "Angel" has egg yolk peritonitis, but is rapidly recovering since we began giving her DURAMYCIN-10 (tetracyline hydrochloride soluble powder) just 1 day ago :). I was really surprised...

Sounds like good news. Watch her belly though. If it doesn't go back down, something is probably going on. Please keep us posted on her progress.

I could definitely tell she was struggling to push an egg out shortly before the hernia was discovered. I could feel the shape of the egg in her gut too (although it was pretty hard to find with the hernia in the way). When I went to the vet for x-rays, that is when I was told she had the hernia...

I have a beautiful 8 year old female Indian Runner. I adopted her when she was 1 years old. I also have a pet bird who I raised since she was a fledgling. I joined this website forum to learn and share information about ducks. Since I have had my duck, I have been through just about any...

Sometimes a bloated belly could be due to being egg bound or a hernia. You need to feel around the stomach. Is it hard or mushy? If it's hard chances are they may be egg bound. Many times you can feel the shape of an egg. My duck was egg bound and had to have surgery. Many times egg bound...

I received directions from a avian licensed professional for my pet duck and I am currently treating her right now. You will need oral antibiotics and DMSO watered down solution (1 part DMSO to 9 parts water). You will also need cotton balls, gauze, vet wrap (cut into long 1/2" wide strips)...
