    Chicken not being able to eat, now growth on beak

    Thanks heaps, I agree. She had her second dose this morning. Can/should I clean out the yellow stuff inside her beak or will that be hard/painful/unremovable? Am also considering adding colloidal silver to the water canisters/bowls for the other hens as an immune booster, have no idea about...

    Chicken not being able to eat, now growth on beak

    Thank you, I have called pet food stores, they have none. The vet will only prescribe after seeing the hen; their response in the past was: we know nothing about chickens, we either put to sleep or prescribe antibiotics. I have some Amoxicilline left in the fridge and have just given her a 1/4...

    Chicken not being able to eat, now growth on beak

    Okay, that will be a good enough reason for me to go look inside her beak tomorrow when sun is up: do I look for necrotic lesions? If she has got that I treat all from here on?

    Chicken not being able to eat, now growth on beak

    Could you please let me know what it could be if it would look like that and if there then is an appropriate action? Or would it just be for diagnoses?

    Chicken not being able to eat, now growth on beak

    Hi all, Our nearly 5yo Australorp Smokey started to slow down a month or two ago. She wouldn't jump on the roost anymore but prefer to sleep on the ground under the other hens. To keep her clean I provided a tub with roofing for her under. Then I noticed she couldn't eat anymore a few weeks ago...
