    Goose eye red and swollen. Was fine an hour ago.

    Hello, I came to check on my geese, I do it every hour when they are outside. It was fine last time I was out. I think it was a bug bite and the gosling scratched his eye and irritated it. What should I use for treatment? Should I cover his toenails to prevent further damage? Thanks in advanced.

    The Chicken Keepers Health Armoury.

    There are various threads on what you should have as essential items to care for your flock. This list is what I've found essential. The bulk of these items are from European sources but with the pictures many should be quite clear as to what they are and what they are for. Fenbendazole wormer...

    Bumblefoot?

    Is this bumblefoot? I noticed one of my ducks limping the other day, checked today and noticed this lump. Does anyone know how to treat something like this at home? I am going to call the vet, I just want to ask others who may have experienced this first and get their opinion or help.

    I’m in desperate need of help:(

    My 7/8 week old chick has a broken right leg. It seems disconnected from the joint seeing as it hang. I really don’t want to kill her, I barely have the heart to try and examine her leg and hear her peep in pain.
