    My hen’s comb is pale.

    The last I saw her poop was watery. Not sure what he breast bone should normally feel like but it’s pretty sharp. Unfortunately, when I went out to check on her again this evening she already passed away.

    My hen’s comb is pale.

    My golden lace Wyandotte is about 5yrs old. I just noticed within the last 2 days that her comb is pale and she’s been hiding out when I let her out of the coop. She hasn’t been laying for maybe 2wks. She doesn’t run away so I’m able to pick her up easily. I checked her over yesterday. I don’t...

    Woke up this morning to find my chicken didn’t make it thru the night. So sad. Such a pretty chicken. I guess her injuries were too extensive internally. I tried

    Dog attacked my chicken!

    Did you use just plain raw honey? And did you mix the water honey and yogurt all together? I’m assuming you used plain yogurt?

    Dog attacked my chicken!

    Just changed my girl’s bandages. I did a second dressing change last night. Irrigated the wound and applied honey to it. This dressing change I irrigated again, sprayed with veterycin, then applied coconut pile with a couple drops of oregano oil. She is very bruised. I just hope that all that is...

    Dog attacked my chicken!

    Yes that’s a bandage. I have her in a crate on my back porch. I didn’t want her getting maggots. Anything I can give in her food to help her?

    Dog attacked my chicken!

    One of my Easter eggers got attacked by a hound dog. I managed to get the chicken back but it was badly hurt. Large lacerations across back and a couple on either side. Back laceration was deep but don’t think anything major was hit. Not sure cuz I don’t know what I’m looking at. I stitched her...

    Thank you so much for answering my questions! Regarding the first pic that you asked questions about- yes that should be connected and I’m not sure exactly what you’re pointing to but I believe that is a ligament or something. I will do all that you suggested and see how it goes! I will post...

    Prolapsed Vent - Can a hen be born without an opening for egglaying?

    I'm dealing with a hen of my own with a prolapse vent also. Prolapse was not that bad. Did a prep h and reinsertion yesterday. Popped out a couple times after her pooping. But stayed in all thru the night. How long do I keep her secluded and in dark lighting to discourage egg laying?

    Blisters on foot

    Soaked her foot this morning. The blisters were already draining on their own so I just put pressure on it to drain it all. Went to tractor supply and bought a bunch of stuff. Sprayed it with veterycin. Put triple antibiotic ointment and wrapped it. Hopefully she heals quickly.
