I can’t see any other differences 😕 if it is mareks my guess is a tumor is pressing against the blood supply somehow.

ALSO when I mess with the cold leg, and try to feel for an injury she starts panting like it hurts her? I feel like with mareks they can’t usually feel the leg they can’t use, right? I don’t know what to think.

Hi! I posted the other day thinking my flock has mareks. I have sent out one of my hens body for necropsy to MSU VDL, so I’m waiting for results to confirm, but I have another hen who I brought inside a couple weeks ago because I thought she had a leg injury. Today I saw her sticking her leg...

Thank you so much. It must have come from my tractor supply for all of these chicks to be affected. I hope my older birds don’t start dropping too. I’m not happy my suspicions are probably correct, but I’m glad I pretty much know what I’m dealing with. I’m debating sending her to MSU for a...

Nope, everything looked normal to me! I’m no professional. Just a vet assistant, but nothing looked abnormal at all

I feed nutrena naturewise all flock, I have chickens, geese, ducks, guineas. I do not free range right now but I did this past summer for a couple months, it happened then too. This is not my first flock, I’ve had chickens 2 years and this has only happened to tractor supply pullets I got this...

I tried to look for the tumors since that’s what people say they’d have inside if it’s mareks. But I suppose some forms wouldn’t show that.

Hi! I keep having chickens die from leg paralysis. They all start out walking on their hock on one leg, then it progresses to complete paralysis where one leg sticks straight forward and one sticks straight back. I’ve cut one of these chickens open after it died and didn’t find any indication of...

Do males and females make different sounds like ducks do?

Hi! Is there anyway besides vent sexing (I have no idea how to do that) to tell a male from a female goose?? Just got these two African geese who were born this spring, the people I got them from couldn’t even give me a round about month of when they were born. 🙃

Thank you! They’re in their ugly teenager phase right now 🤣 I was thinking roo for that one as well

My thoughts too!

Thank you for that! I love to see the comparison!!

I got these 9 australorps marked as pullets from TSC. They’re 4.5 weeks old now. Do you think they’re all pullets so far? Or do any look like a roo to you?

Her poop looks totally normal too, wouldn't coccidia be affecting what her poop looks like?

She's doing a lot better today, something I did must have helped. lol she's still not super energetic, but she's eating on her own now and is drinking normally. She's just a little lethargic too.

I have before, but not recently.

Oh and I only noticed that she was acting like this today. She was acting normally yesterday!

I need help! My Rhode Island Red hen (she's about 2 years old) is very lethargic/lifeless, she won't move at all, she won't eat at all, and she only drank a little bit when I soaked her in the tub for 20 minutes. She also won't keep her eyes open unless she's startled. :( I just don't know...
