I came back home from a two week trip to find my rooster un able to move. After checking him I found a golf ball sized lump on his back with a gash through it and he seems to not be able to move one of his legs. He doesn't seem to be in any pain and will let me touch his legs without screaming...

This duck is about six months old and he was injured when I got him him resulting in the leg that goes up. But the other side, I believe he was stepped on, sticks up in the back more than it should. I’ll add a video, and listen to it with sound on because I am talking about what I see with him...

This duckling hatched last night she didn’t seem to have any trouble getting out of the egg, but when I went to take a closer look her, I was all messed up and not opening on the right side. The left one is fine. Her bill is crooked and seems to be turned to the right and then her right leg is...

Hey! So I was just completing my first health check in a while on my flock and I found what appears to be an old open wound (most likely caused by my roo) on the side of one of my hens. It seems to have been there for a while and I just feel terrible that I didn’t find it sooner! The skin around...

I was walking by my incubator when I noticed this absolutely horrible smell coming out of it, when I looked in I noticed one of the eggs was rotten and was leaking. I quickly took the egg out and cleaned where it was sitting, I also candled the other eggs and noticed one other was rotten so I...

Hello all, I've been stressing over this egg, as I'm a new hatcher and had became concerned as I noticed more bruising has started to appear on the membrane end of the egg. I'm growing nervous, as the duck is positioned awkwardly, and I'm unaware if he/she could be malpositioned and is...

Hi all, I'm afraid we're going to lose one of our original hens. This morning, she wouldn't come out of the coop with the rest. She was laying down, legs not working, BEET red eyes (they're usually yellow/orange). We brought her inside and laid her in the bathtub. This is when we noticed that...

For most of this week, my hen has been acting a bit unusual. My girl Max is an almost 6 year-old indoor Wellsummer hen. She lives indoors due to her previous flock abusing her to the point of borderline starvation. Normally, Max is energetic, obnoxious, talkative, curious, and a decent eater. I...

About two months ago we bought some new baby chicks for pets and from the start I knew we were given the wrong breeds but I didn’t mind because I’d love them no matter what. I’ve just come to realize we were given a Cornish hen, nothing close to what we had wanted and I’m very worried for her...
