    Cocci - Not responding to Corrid

    I also use Colliodal Silver. 20 to 30 drops per gallon of water (500 ppm colloidal Silver). For very sick chicks, i dose them with a dropper with a little higher concentration. I have heard some people use silver as a preventive measure as well. This in addition to the corrid, saved my flock...

    Underdeveloped Gosling from Metzer?

    She had a twisted neck, i believe she was deformed in the egg. We did everything we could. I force fed her the first day thinking that would get her going and she would grow, but she never did. She would drink a little, but would not eat on her own. Her sister is lonely. I can't find any...

    Underdeveloped Gosling from Metzer?

    Update, Metzer refunded my money for the gosling. She is still alive, but not hopeful that she will live. She only drinks and will not eat on her own. I have force fed her and she is not much bigger than when we received her a week ago. I should probably cull her, but she is not in pain. She...

    2 Day old Gosling with a twisted neck

    The one holding her head up really straight, is the healthy one. The one that is scrunched up is twisted. She will hold it up and then get tired and hang it down. Thanks to everyone for your advice. I know she will make it, I just want her as healthy as possible. We have been waiting since...

    Underdeveloped Gosling from Metzer?

    I just received a gosling with a twisted neck from Metzer. I ordered 3 females and received just 2. Not sure if the quality of the geese has anything to do with the fact that the geese did not lay well and they have not been hatching well. I am at a loss as to what to do for this sweet girl...

    2 Day old Gosling with a twisted neck

    I just received a Roman Tufted Gosling that was shipped from Metzer. It arrived with a twisted neck. Is it too young to have a vitamin deficiency or could it be from its position when growing in egg, or damage from being shipped? Can I do anything or should I wait a couple of days and see if...

    I ordered Geese from Murray Mcmurray, but they are coming from Metzer! Anyone know what the deal is?

    I had ordered from Metzer last year, but did not like that it took 3 days to get Alabama, so I ordered from Murray Mcmurray. To my dismay, i just got a shipping confirmation and they just left California! I hope that they get here in 2 days this year. I hope that it was slow last year due to the...

    Silkies will not move, eat or drink on there own.

    Not my only chickens, but there pen is separate because they are so small. They are in a coop within a coop. There food and water are separate from my other layers and roosters. They do not directly interact with them. They can see each other through a fence.

    Silkies will not move, eat or drink on there own.

    Yes, I treated the coop and the area. I opened the waterer and there was what looked like black mold. That is the first time I have ever seen that. I usually refill every 2 1/2 weeks. They are lethargic. One looks like it has bumblefoot, the other ones feet are fine. I was going to soak her...

    My chicken keeps laying soft eggs while I am holding her

    What a sweet duck! That is interesting. I felt like she was so relaxed that she just let one go just like you described with your duck. They are free range and I feed them ground up egg shells and no other girls are laying soft eggs, so I am perplexed. My son told me to quit holding her...

    My chicken keeps laying soft eggs while I am holding her

    I have the friendliest white leghorn. She comes to me when I am in the fence and pecks my leg until I pick her up. Two days in a row, she has fallen asleep in my arms and lays a soft shell egg that falls to the ground and breaks. Has this ever happened to anyone? Is there something wrong?
