    Lump on Neck 😭

    Ok I did as good of an investigation as I could.. she doesn’t like being held under my terms ha! If I’m feeling it right it actually seems to have gone down.. I don’t feel a tick or see any.. (hard to see with feathers) I’ll look again when I have a second person to hold her. It seems to move a...

    Lump on Neck 😭

    I’ll give it a test today when I get home… it seems big to be an insect bite.. maybe the size of a grape.. she is such a pretty girl. My oldest head hen. 🙏🏻🐓

    Lump on Neck 😭

    Thank you! I LOVE to hear about your chickens living such long lives!! She was preening it (fussing.. not sure how describe) it the other day but I haven’t seen her do that since. She eats.. drinks… free ranges.. poops are fine and is laying eggs so I’ll keep an eye on it. Like I said this...

    Lump on Neck 😭

    That’s my guess… I’m not sure which.. I’m not even sure if it’s something new or has been developing. :( Like I said, I never would have noticed if I didn’t see her messing with the area. 😞 She doesn’t seem to like it when I touch it.

    Lump on Neck 😭

    Hey there friends, I feel a little worried about my almost 5 year old Golden Wyondotte Hazel and was hoping for some advice. The other day I noticed her kind of trying to itch or scratch or was annoyed by something on her neck.. so I felt her neck and noticed what feels like a lump.. hardish...

    Hi friends.. just wanted to send an update that Lilac lost her battle with cancer. She started to decline pretty badly this past week and I made the difficult decision to have her put to sleep. I was hoping she would pass with her flock under her favorite bush but the suffering became too...

    Hi! A few of them I ordered online.. fish antibiotics or other online versions/birds etc.. just generic ones for emergencies. I had some left over from a previous vet appt.

    Since I have to wait a week here is what I’m thinking… perhaps giving her the 3 injections of LA200 and the anti inflammatories I have from the last time she got this… not sure if 3 injections is smart or will do anything? When she got this in summer doctor gave her la200 and it didn’t quite...

    Thank you so much. I’ll keep loving on her until we can get into the vet and hope it’s not too late. I had a feeling it would be chronic and at some point I know the difficult choice is coming but she is worth another vet appointment. I hope she can stay strong until I can get in next week...

    If she had an infection would I see signs? Yellow poo or anything? Not seeing that.. if it’s ascites would antibiotics even help? I’m sure if that’s what’s going on vet will drain her but I have to wait a week 😭
