    18- 20 week EE behaving sick

    Update: She is doing better. Within 24 hours she was up and running around with the flock. Still had loose stools, but her over-all behavior is fairly normal. Although I'm still not sure if the Corid is responsible for her turn around. The others are still asymptomatic.

    18- 20 week EE behaving sick

    Eggcessive- Thanks for responding. If this happened last week (or the week before), I would agree about the heat. We had a terrible heat wave. But the last two days have been fairly mild comparatively. Today was mid 80's with a nice cooling rainstorm. Yesterday the temps were decent as well...

    Persistant yawning 7 week old Orpington

    Thanks Dawg53! I'd not heard of the tomato juice. I hadn't thought that capillary worms would apply since she is so young and have had her since she was 5 days old. I'll post an update in a few days.

    Persistant yawning 7 week old Orpington

    Raising the head half the time to yawn... no honking. As for the scratching... no more than usual. As for the shaking... only when you are petting and get too close to the ear... but all my chicks do that.

    Persistant yawning 7 week old Orpington

    Last night her crop was full.... This morning her crop was empty... good sign! Her persistent yawning was minimal at sunrise also. Then she started back up with full open-beak yawning, and hasn't stopped. I'm not saying that it is on and off... it is persistent/constant She is fairly active...

    Persistant yawning 7 week old Orpington

    This one has been doing it all day.... I know her crop is fine, but just in case, I gave her a little olive oil.

    Persistant yawning 7 week old Orpington

    Okay... I need advice!! Our 7 week old Orpington has been persistently yawning. This bird has not been exposed to the main coop, and is still in the brooder pen. None of the other birds in the pen are exhibiting this behavior. S/he seems to be eating and drinking fine. No oozing from the nares...

    Silkie's comb

    I have an 8 week silkie. I believe is a cockerel. He walks upright, bumps chests with my other young cockerel, and is twice the size of his "sister" hatched the same day. But the thing that really sticks out to me is his comb! It has already begun to turn red-ish ... Just wanted to throw it...
