    Sick pigeon

    I was letting her sit as she's quite cross when I was taking the eggs away. For such a small bird she packs a mean wing slap and bites like a shark. Right now she's on Oxyteteacycline and has been slowly perking up. Her poops are still mucos-y but she has regained some of her feisty attitude.

    I think she has something going on internally. She pooped out something that looks like...tissue? If I can figure out how to post a pic from my moble I will. Thanks for the link!

    Sick pigeon

    I have this posted on a poultry vet site but thoughg someone here may have some ideas.... My 5 year old pigeon, who lives in the house, pooped out whole grains this morning (I'm assuming she pooped them out, maybe she threw up?) Anyway, the grains have not been digested. She's fed pigeon feed...

    So I brought home a rescue pigeon.... Now what?

    I have 3 pigeons in the house and they do fine in parrot cages. Well 2 do, one's in a rabbit cage until I move and have more space (3 weeks and counting) My guys get a pigeon mix from from the feed store. But they like bird seed too. I read some where NOT to feed cracked corn (someone correct me...

    Indoor Duck-- is this a problem?

    My goose lived in the house for a year, I had to move and she had to move to the barn :( I think house ducks/geese are better then dogs (shh don't tell my dog). I also picked up a musvovy that was raised in a house. Lily is the nicest duck I have. She's a riot! And she tries to come inside and...

    mice!

    I wish mine were mice hunters. I had to tack tin down in every seam of the coops to keep the wee buggers out.

    What ducks are best with chickens

    My Calls, Crested and 'scovies range and sleep with my chickens, pigeons and goose. Come winter the 'scovies and goose live in one house (with a few pigeons) and the calls and crested live with the chickens and other pigeons. Only Pinky (call drake) has a "thing" for small hens from time to...

    pulling out all the feathers on the new duckling.

    Chicken wire around the crate will keep out duck heads. I second Miss. L's comment about the lights. If possible try seperating the problem duck(s) for awhile. I find some ducks (like calls) take to newbies right away where as 'scovies do not (my crew anyway) PITA or not I think seperation is...

    Duck on Metacam

    Good news! Corin doesn't seem to need pain killers any more. YAY!!!! Looks like she spent the day trying to have a bath (was wet when I went to put ointment on her) while picking at scabs (ick!) I'm amazed (again) at how quickly she's healing. What was a gaping hole on Sunday is now - mostly -...

    Duck on Metacam

    Hi It was/is a very serious wound. The horse not only skined her but sliced her open as well leaving a hole in her back and a knife like slash down her side. Had I taken her to the vet it would have been at least $500 (estimated by the last duck I took in who only needed medication. Over $200...

    Yes, please PM me the site :) This is my first serious duck injury (thankfully) I guess all the small ones the chickens have got over the years were just to get me ready :/ I changed her dressing last night and was very surprised at how much she's healed!! Thank god for Johnson & Johnson, they...

    Duck on Metacam

    Thank you! I was able to find one thread that Google brought up where a duck was on Metacam for a month. Another thread had a duck on it for life due to arthritis. For now I'll keep her on it for another couple of weeks and see how she is. I trimed some down feathers that her dressing was...
