I had them all in doing the mix in the water but I pulled her yesterday she got a drench dose of 1 ml Cori’s yesterday and today refused to open her eyes unless I aggravate her. Tried to syringe in the egg yolk as slowly as possible she waits a minute before swallowing mostly still sleeps her...
I had some young chicks in a chicken tractor in our yard about a week ag found one dead one sitting at its feet and one beside it the other 4 where up in a nesting box .long story short the one sitting at its feet didn’t make it the day and I grabbed all and started treating immediately. All...
Thank you , yes I think the temperature was just a little off on this set the others hatched fine but this one tried very hard and I can’t bear to see him keep pushing to hold on when he’s just gonna suffer through longer . I very much appreciate the help thank you .
This little one is now about 16 hours old first to hatch obviously too soon from what I read he has no hope is there a quit and painless way to cull without using scissors I don’t have the heart for that
I did , completely legal to kill here if it threatens your flocks on private property, apparently We have lots of them so they also do have a hunting season when not on private property. We try not to kill anything if we can shew it off first though.
It’s PM the land is family land , these guys haven’t come around here before . We dug the pond 20 years ago . I have never had this problem with their enclosure and haven’t seen anything else around. We did have raccoons 5 years back but they only took heads and mostly only my ducks . Which is...
Ok so we have about a 10-15 ft deep pond that is spring fed full of fish and I think 3 turtles maybe. Three days ago I was missing a chicken 2 days ago one of my chickens had her tail feathers ripped to bleeding , 1 day ago I found a dead silkie on a nest with her sternum and right wing ripped...
Thank you , I don’t know why I didn’t think of that. I’m so preoccupied with the two that I did save one doesn’t seem to be able to hold its head yet and seems to be gasping for air . I believe from pain though I can’t tell where .additionally it will not open its eyes so I’m afraid that might...
I need a lot of help. I have a chicken who was sitting for three weeks in a different location than the regular chicken coop and the rest of the group because of this we let her sit outside the coop so that she could hatch her eggs . sometime in the last 48 hours she did hatch 6 eggs but before...
Also gabapenton is a pain medication that a vet gave me for a dog that passed with sudden cancer in November. So I know it’s animal grade and from what I read good for ducks in pain. I just am not sure of a dose he is a bit squinty eyed and seems a bit tense though after we splinted he did preen...
So I did put the poultry cell and vitamins in with a seperate water for him and added the starter and nutritional yeast for niacin I will look into getting that salve to see if that helps I don’t think it’s too bad yet there is no smell at all year so I’m hoping it’s more a superficial than deep...
It’s not looking like this particular splint is working great he put his leg completely backward and I just had to carefully turn it back I have that fan blowing above not direct now and per advice of others on here he’s got poultry cell and grow crumble mixed in with the scratch and some...
Hey folks I have a male duck under a year but fully matured. He got into it with an unknown animal and lost quite a few feathers ( maybe a hawk, maybe a cat ) thing is his leg is totally broke at the hip joint and it’s completely limp . We took a bumble food boot to spread his toes apart and...
