    Help needed - Possible canker

    So there is no smell that I can detect (what does it smell like?). I cleaned her up this evening after taking pictures and it looked like it MIGHT be improving. I'll see how she looks tomorrow. The attached pic is this morning before cleaning it, the brown is just dirt and debris that was...

    Help needed - Possible canker

    I'll try to give it a whiff and attempt a picture tomorrow morning. If I fishzole should I try to dose all the flock or just her?

    Help needed - Possible canker

    Hello, I have a chicken that about 7 days ago was suddenly overly full of water/liquid in the crop when I went out to check on them in the evening. She was drooling it out, shaking her head, making a bit of a wheezing noise. It had been very hot and I'm sure that played a role but she looked...

    Help! Possible mareks.

    Sorry for not updating, I've been a bit bummed and a lot busy. We ending up culling poor Edward yesterday morning, he had lost use of both legs and it was too undignified to keep him going. I tried to get a hold of the state vet, and they were supposed to call me back but never did and I found...

    Help! Possible mareks.

    I'm in AZ. I actually just separate out one chick who was having issues, but again it's hard to tell if mareks is the culprit because this chick has had issues since birth. He was always a bit lame and I've thought I was going to lose him several times. We are probably going to cull him anyway...

    Help! Possible mareks.

    I have no issues culling sick birds, I would prefer not to see them suffer. The issue I have is with needlessly culling young birds that appear to be in perfect health. I will call my states department but if it costs more than $20-30 I won't likely be able to afford it. What are the chances of...

    Help! Possible mareks.

    Hello byc members, it's been a while, which means I've had very little problems with my flock. However about 4ish weeks ago I noticed my rooster picking at his foot and then limping off. He was fine earlier the same day and I though maybe he got stung by an ant or even a scorpion (we live in...

    Silver laced wyandottes sexing

    They're wyandottes, they had a mix of different variety wyandottes though. They're hatchery stock so I don't expect them to be too true to breed. I won't be keeping roos so I could care less about the comb lol.

    Silver laced wyandottes sexing

    I have 6 straight run silver laced wyandottes that we purchased from TS. They're about 5 weeks old and I THINK I have 4 girls and 2 boys. What do you guys think?

    Sick baby chick HELP!

    Wendi how is your baby doing? If you haven't already I would add some of this stuff (or something similar to their water).

    Sick baby chick HELP!

    I thought I would give an update. My little Ruby seems to be recovered! She is doing great now. I'm not sure if it was a vitamin deficiency or a leg injury but her resting and my adding rooster booster vitamin & electrolytes with Lacto baccilus seems to have worked. I have been keeping it in...

    Sick baby chick HELP!

    Mine will get up and walk but she seems a bit week on her legs. I was watching her today and it seems like I may have been off base before and that perhaps it's a leg injury that is actually causing her odd behavior because it seems like she is actually limping. Besides the frequent laying down...
