She has a bump between her toes. She is a 3yo Buff Orpington and is acting normal. No limping. I'm going to go clean the bottom of her foot to look for a black spot.
I hope your turkey starts feeling better. I have had two chickens go through this. One girl, once I helped her to regurgitate up what was in her crop, she felt better immediately. The other one, I'm still working on. She's not looking good.
Don't get discouraged if no one writes to...
Also, she's not jumping...a sign of the lethargy. I have to pick her up and out of the run to free range and put her back in the coop at night. Poor thing tried to roost under the coop since she couldn't make it in.
Hello,
I've got a three year old BO that is not feeling well.
The other day I noticed her just standing by the fence, not moving so I picked her up. When I did that, she puked up all over me. It was all water...no food that I could see. I held her upside down and massaged her crop a bit...
Hello! I'm dealing with impacted crop with one of my girls as well. I gave her olive oil and a massage and that really seemed to help. But she's back to having a very hard crop again. I guess I'll keep trying the olive oil treatment. They also get ACV in their water.
Good luck! Sounds...
Hello,
I've got a 2year old Buff Orpington who is acting completely normal but her droppings are bright green.
There are 7 girls total and this is the only one with the green droppings.
Her bum was quite dirty and tinted green so I gave her a bath. She's drying out in the bathroom right now...
I got a normal egg from Sweet Pea today! I was in the coop when she laid it...she seemed to have a hard time pushing it out. Made more noise than the other girls usually do....I'm just glad to see things working properly :)
Hello,
There were no symptoms. She was fine in the afternoon and dead in the evening. There were absolutely no symptoms that we could see. The vet said a ruptured liver would be a quick death.
Thanks so much! She loves her greek yogurt so I'll crush up a Tums for her and let her go to town with it. Since she's at the bottom of the pecking order, I worry that she doesn't get to eat as much as the others. But, I do keep several feeders out for them so she gets a chance. The oyster...
Hello!
I've posted in the recent past about my Sweet Pea....a 2yo Buff Orpington. Recently she had soft egg shell hanging from her vent. I gave her a warm bath and let her rest but nothing changed. The next day, the shell had come out and she's been acting normal ever since.
However, the...
I am very lucky and our state poultry vet lives about 2 minutes from me. He did a necropsy for free out of the back of his truck. My girl had died of a liver rupture :(
