    Seeking Help/Advice: Why is my rooster’s eye closed? Could it be due to molting?

    Thank yo Thank You!!!! I will do that today. Quick question, I was seeing online that an upper respiratory infection could also lead to this. He was sneezing earlier last month, but hasn’t been sneezing since (nor does he have other respiratory symptoms). I do have TiaGard and I was wondering...

    Seeking Help/Advice: Why is my rooster’s eye closed? Could it be due to molting?

    Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice about my rooster, who doesn’t seem quite himself. I’m trying to figure out if this is just molting or something more. He’s eating and drinking normally but feels lighter and seems to have lost some weight. I checked for mites and found none. He’s likely...

    Possible Respiratory Infection? Tiagard? Natural Alternatives?

    Hmm I haven’t noticed any of those other symptoms. If it’s a virus, can it not be treated by TiaGard? If not, what can I use?

    Possible Respiratory Infection? Tiagard? Natural Alternatives?

    Hi everyone! I’ve noticed that my rooster has been sneezing intermittently over the past few days. I recently cleaned the coop and run, refreshed their water with poultry cell for added vitamins and minerals, and provided fresh food. Overall, he appears to be doing well—he’s drinking, eating...

    Chipped Beak?! Why do I do?

    I do have a brick under his feeder (I have his feeder elevated). He’s definitely rubbed his beak on that before. Would this be fine? What if it doesn’t come off?

    Chipped Beak?! Why do I do?

    Hi everyone! My little silkie rooster has a chipped beak (images attached). This must have occurred this morning, as his beak was normal/fine when I put him into the coop. I do not see any redness or dried up blood. I touched it to see if it was loose or could be removed/wiggled off, but it...

    Best Tyosin Powder? Possible Respiratory Disease | Foamy Eyes and Sneezing

    Thank you! This is very helpful. I do not have a picture of his eyes. He definitely looks like he is doing well. I wanted to treat him just in case, but if that’s not recommended unless he evidently has a respiratory infection or more consistent symptoms, then I will just continue to monitor...

    Best Tyosin Powder? Possible Respiratory Disease | Foamy Eyes and Sneezing

    Hi everyone, I’m making a post again about a possible issue with my Silkie rooster. Today I noticed tiny bubbles in the corner of his eye and have also heard him sneeze a few times. Otherwise, he’s acting completely normal—eating, drinking, active, no open-mouth breathing or gasping. I...

    Is this fowl pox? What can I do for treatment?

    He is very docile and lets me pick him up whenever, so I might check him throughout the week to make sure he doesn’t have any scabs inside his mouth. I do have another rooster, but he hangs out with the other hens throughout the day. They all are inside the coop to sleep, but they do not fight...

    Is this fowl pox? What can I do for treatment?

    He is a silkie rooster! As of now, he does not have scabs on his earlobes or wattles. The past three days, I have noticed these white scabs, but I was not sure since all the pictures online do not show silkies with fowl pox. Yes we have a lot of mosquitoes out right now, thats why I think it...

    Is this fowl pox? What can I do for treatment?

    Hi everyone! Is this fowl pox on my rooster? I’ve noticed some little white bumps or scabs. I’m scared. He’s acting completely normal, eating and drinking. I added some poultry cell into their water, just to boost their immune system. I don’t want to touch the scabs, but what else can I do to...

    Is this Scaly Leg Mites?

    Hi everyone! My rooster has a limp. He is acting completely normal otherwise (eating, drinking water, exploring, etc). I searched online and it says that sometimes a limo is caused by scaly leg mites. Now I’m paranoid and thinking my rooster probably has that? He could also have just sprained it...

    What feed do you give your silkies?

    Would it be fine for a rooster as well? I just don’t want to feed my rooster the wrong thing
