    Looking for Advice & Sharing Progress on My Sick Pullet

    No, she hasn’t started laying yet. Her hatchmates haven’t either, which is normal for my Marans. Her tail position varies - sometimes it’s down, sometimes up. I haven't noticed a pattern. Her poop is now solid with a tinge of dark green, her urates are white. I’ll try to take pictures. Her crop...

    Looking for Advice & Sharing Progress on My Sick Pullet

    So, my 24-week-old pullet (not laying yet) became very lethargic. At first, she slept on the floor instead of roosting, and by the second night, I moved her inside so I could monitor her. She stopped eating and drinking on her own, spending most of the day standing still or lying down with her...

    Sick chick

    Hi, unfortunately he passed away. I also had two more chicks die in the following month with similar symptoms, so I decided to take one in for an autopsy. Thankfully, it was confirmed not to be Marek's disease, which was a relief. However, I still don’t have an answer as to what the cause was...

    eggs under broody exploded

    Out of the eleven eggs under my broody hen, two have broken/exploded. It's only day five, and now there is egg goo on all the remaining eggs. Should I wash them, or should I leave them alone? I attempted to candle them to check their condition, but I couldn't see anything. What should I do...

    Sick chick

    I'm really hoping it's not Marek's. I work from home so I'm able to be tube-feeding him on a schedule as long as he has the will to live. No strange pupils, he looks very responsive. He can move his wings, head and legs but seems to be too weak/disoriented to stand. Thanks for the reply!

    Sick chick

    Not much has changed. Yes - 400iu of Vit E and for the rest our vet gave me injections with b-complex and selenium so i'm sure its the correct dose. I didn't notice the video issue, I'll try to upload and link them. Thanks!

    Shaking/twitching head lethargic 8 week old chick

    About a week ago, my 8-week-old pullet was pecked on the head by my adult hen. She was distressed but started eating and drinking normally within an hour. She seemed normal until 3 days ago when I noticed she was not coming out of the coop like the rest of our chicks so took her in the house...
