Oh your poor chicken condolences. Hawks sound terrible to deal with, I'm glad I don't have to. Can't believe they would come into the coop.

Goodluck, hopefully that works. If it gets worse though then even a regular vet should be able to help.

Unfortunately left untreated the infection can spread into bones and tendons, causing debilitating pain, lameness and death. Performing the surgery yourself would be agonising for the poor chicken so better to leave it to a professional if you have access to them. The vet put mine out &...

Yes azygous they did have red mites in their coop which was replaced as a result & the birds treated, however that was recently & the feather loss started a long time before that. I haven't looked into feather lice before but I will now. My other hen doesn't have any of these symptoms. I just...

My hen has gradually been losing feathers on her neck for about 6-12 months. I originally thought they were getting pulled out by my one other hen as I saw her do it once but as it gets more bare I'm not so sure. I don't see her pulling at her feathers enough to explain this (only once) and I...

When I noticed my chicken limping I inspected her foot and found a black scab similar to the one in your first picture. It was bumblefoot so she had the infection treated at a bird vet. You'll want to get her seen by a vet quickly as the earlier you control it, the better (if it is bumblefoot...

Yeah I can't seem to find out either :/ I'll see if I can get fenbendazole or a more general wormer, thanks for your help.

Yes I don't think it's roundworms anymore as they coming out in the droppings still moving. Also I was wrong & wasn't seeing just the tips, whatever they are they're only a few mm long and yellow. I'll attach some pictures (warning - gross!). Thanks for the links, could be cecal worms or...

What I saw were tiny tiny little white worms sticking out of fresh droppings & wiggling around, I never saw an entire worm (i'm assuming they were the tips and the rest of the worm was inside the droppings). It was very hard to get a good look at them without a magnifying glass, I tried to look...

Thanks for your input Wyorp Rock, I ended up doing just that as the chicken breeder I bought them from advised something similar. The label needs far more information! Now i'm trying to find out how long the medicine should take to work as I haven't seen any worms in the droppings. I'm worried...

Hi all, I've read every thread on this topic but still can't find the right information so am hoping someone who uses this product can help me. Label dosage: 90mls per 11 litres for 100 birds. The label dosages are for 100 birds so when I convert everything down for just 2 chickens i get...
