    Non Respiratory Sneeze

    This was my thought too. I would have assumed it would be passed by now if it was a clipping. But after seeing this massive tumor like ball that the other Pullet pushed out of her eye, I’m not so sure. And she is otherwise seemingly totally fine. I have tried to oil her a few different times. I...

    Non Respiratory Sneeze

    I have a 4mo old Pullet. Almost 2 months ago she and a second Pullet presented with watery, goopy eyes. My first thought was something respiratory. Fast forward Hen A recovered within about a week. She showed no other symptoms other than her eyes. Hen B ended up with a massive growth in one eye...

    Chick blowing up like a ballon

    Me too! Fingers crossed this little babe is just fine. I can’t get over how much it was blown up and instantly deflated.

    Swollen chick - ruptured air sac?

    I will for sure, even 30min later it is walking better. So it looks promising.

    Chick blowing up like a ballon

    UPDATE almost immediately after posting this I found the exact video I was looking for. This matched the description of a ruptured air sack caused by injury, which explains why it came on so quickly. I was able to locate an area under the wing, where there was no down and clear visibility of...

    Chick blowing up like a ballon

    Hi All I have a one week old chick who was totally fine until today I noticed it walking funny. Realized it’s whole body is distended from the crop, under the wing and down into the lower belly, primarily on the right side. This is causing leg to splay out. It isn’t squishy like liquid it feels...

    Standard Brahmas

    That’s ok. It was a long shot that anyone on here would see it in time. But I’ve got brahmas up to my ears now!

    Dark Brahma Roo X Light Brahma Hen

    Assuming the buff females will also have some of the extra black leakage and varied pencilling?

    Dark Brahma Roo X Light Brahma Hen

    This is so great. Thanks so much for sharing the picture. I haven’t been able to find anything where there was a visual. But I’ve got 22eggs in the incubator so we’ll soon get a first hand account ☺️

    No, I mean a Dark Brahma Rooster. Not black.

    Leg injury or egg bound?

    Thanks for your reply. I am leaning more toward injury. Her demeanor and energy is still great. In our flock we have full grown Brahma roosters (they’re big boys) with our laying hens. The pullets share the run and coop and up until this week the roosters ignored them. But we have seen a few of...

    Leg injury or egg bound?

    Hoping for some insight from anyone with more experience. I have a 5mo old Brahma Pullet. Noticed her having trouble walking 3 days ago. She falls to one side. I’ve examined and don’t see any signs of wounds, swelling, tenderness etc. on the first day her right foot seemed limp, but she is now...

    Pullet with crop issue?

    Unfortunately I don’t think she is going to make it. I oil and massaged her yesterday morning, last night her crop was empty but she had isolated under the coop so I brought her inside, dried her off, did a little VetRX on her. She was having trouble keeping her eyes open and no energy to stand...
