I recently noticed my girl was having problems eating- didn’t seem to be able to close her beak - then I realized her top beak seems curved? Never noticed that before - anyone know what this is or why it happened? She still seems to drink and she scratches around - She is older but always my...

And thank you for your reply - I truly think it is puss - it has consistency of scrambled eggs - well done.

Thank you - I may try that - Ive been dealing with this for a while now and I don't feel like im getting very far.

I'm battling the puss - I have removed it a couple times now and wonder if I'm doing the right thing? My boy had fly strike - I think he had a puncture wound underneath between his legs that I didn't know about and then the flies attacked. I noticed him acting funny and he stank....I turned...

Chicken puss ?? Why do I have such a hard time finding any real info on what this is and how to treat or combat it? Everything on chicken puss talks about eye injuries....ugh! I keep peeling it off and it keeps growing....and yes it looks like scrambled eggs

Thank you for your response. I've been trying to decide if I'm doing right or wrong! It keeps growing back and it seems like it is growing new flesh underneath but pulling it off is like taking off a scab with a bunch of yellow stuff attached....geez it is gross! LOL.

Hello! You've helped me before, I have posted a question and some pictures and would like your opinion. It is about treating my rooster for fly strike and his wound keeps getting the yellow puss (looks like scrambled eggs) and I've been removing it but not sure if I should continue. I have...

I have been treating my little rooster for fly strike - I believe he got a puncture wound and I was not aware until he wasn't acting normal - We cleaned (soaked in epsom salt and Dawn Soap) and removed all the maggots. The wound was pretty deep and we Injected Vetricyn into the site, kept him...

Thank you ellend and getaclue. I Appreciate your help and input...

Here are the kernels removed from The toe!

Well my friend did surgery on it and it was bumble foot. A picture is posted below (in another comment/post ) of the kernels she removed. First they soaked her foot in Epson Salt. They gloved up and wrapped her in a towel to keep her from moving. After a small incision on the side of the toe...

Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips on how to treat? It looks like bumblefoot right at tip of toe. Hopefully you can see it in the photo....arrow pointing to it. Had a bumblefoot before in the pad of the foot and successfully treated but never saw one like this....

You're welcome. The vet wasn't positive it was a carcinoma but he said it would explain why there was no improvement - (and it was actually slowly getting worse) - over time. He was very suspicious of the growth that seemed to start the whole thing. He agreed with your assessment that it...

I wanted to post and keep you informed since everyone here was so helpful. You and @azygous @Al Capon @Kris5902 and others were all so supportive and educational. I learned a lot thru this experience. Thanks to everyone.

Update - Last week, after two rounds of different antibiotics with no real change, and months of caring for his leg, I found a vet who would see my poor rooster in a town about 30 miles from here. He looked at his leg, reviewed my pictures and listened to all that I had done over the past 4+...

Oh My! I agree! That does look very similar to what he had...He just had that one spot though....but now it is suspect because he did have scaly mites bad when we first got him. Hmmmm…although his feet never looked that bad....But when his (deposit??) fell off, it was hard, I had no idea what...

Just Curious....If mites feed on Keratin....why would I feed him Keratin? I do feed my birds some spinach and baby kale every so often....what food would you recommend?

Thank you for sharing your information. He was a rescue (along with 3 hens) we got about 3 years ago. We noticed his feet looked funny and he tended to lay around a lot....we didn't know what it was at first but figured out it was scaly leg mites. We also discovered the hens had it too so we...

Well, I've tried everything else I know....I'm willing to give it a try. Let me know. PS my rooster is a rescue too....we got him a couple years ago.

I won't do anything too soon, he still has 5 more days of antibiotic to try. He still crows, eats good, drinks good and mingles with the girls, I've even seen him mount them. But I fear I won't be able to heal this wound....Thank you for your concern. You've been a comfort and help....
