    Sick Chicken

    Well she's been quarantined for about 72 hours. Eating, drinking, and pooping. Seems a little more perky. We've been giving her calcium gluconate. Besides not laying an egg she seems to be doing fine. She's going back to the general population today and we'll keep an eye on her and see how she...

    Sick Chicken

    Sweet! Thank you so much! One more question. Can I put it in the drinking water for my other birds? If so what is the dosage for that?

    Sick Chicken

    I found liquid calcium gluconate that is touted for milk fever in cattle. Can we give her this orally? If so how much? Do we mix it in her water or give straight with a syringe?

    Sick Chicken

    She has layer feed, with a bowl of oyster shell next to it. We just did the warm bath/massage thing to try and help it along if she has a bound egg. Also tried to feel around again internally and didn't feel anything.

    Sick Chicken

    If it is a stuck soft shelled egg how do we go about removing it? She's eating and drinking this morning, poop is normal. Last night she escaped her pen and the backyard and we found her in the coop with the others, so she's ded got some spunk. Would it be worth it to give her Duramycin, in case...

    Sick Chicken

    I poked a finger inside her vent about an inch...didn't feel anything. We put oyster shell in with her food and gave her a small bowl of it as well. Guess we will see how she is in the morning

    Sick Chicken

    So far she's eating and drinking. I fed her an egg with buttermilk and she ate every last drop. Poop looks normal from what I can tell. I did a thorough exterior check of her and didn't feel any eggs but I'll put on a glove and see if we find anything.

    Sick Chicken

    We have a white leghorn hen who is just under a year old. She's been a great layer and the leader of our flock. Almost a week ago she laid a soft shelled egg. We didn't think much about it but the last few days she doesn't seem to be herself. She's still eating and drinking but her comb is a...
