    What is this cloacal mass?

    You are absolutely right. Attached is a pic with the specimen cut in half. It is clearly a lash egg. Thanks!

    What is this cloacal mass?

    Yesterday AM my 3 y.o. RIR started acting as if she were egg bound. On exam her exterior was swollen and I was pretty sure I felt an egg and that I saw a bit of it poking through. We first tried a warm water bath with Epsom salts and the other usual recommendations. Nothing happened for several...

    Can anyone help diagnose this?

    I'm applying 6 drops of the Ivermectin pour on on their bare areas once a week. The bare area you see in the picture I attached was much redder before I started treatment which suggests to me there's been improvement. I thought it was just feather picking a couple of months ago and tried the...

    I have the same thing going on with two of my chickens. I made the presumptive diagnosis of depluming mites a couple of weeks back based upon my on line searches (no Vet visit). I've been treating with Ivermectin pour on for two weeks. I will let you know how it goes. Good luck and please keep...

    Pinless peepers and egg laying

    Thanks all for your input. I needed the peepers for pecking issues which have since resolved. The ones with peepers have started to lay again. I guess the initial stress of the peepers turned them off. They do have enough space and get enough protein so that's probably not the cause of the...

    Pinless peepers and egg laying

    I have a flock of six hens. I had to put pinless peepers on three of them about a month ago because of pecking issues and they solved the problem. Unfortunately the three with peepers have stopped laying. Has anyone else had the same experience? If so, what should I expect? Thanks in advance.

    Facial swelling/eye closure

    I just ordered Denagard from QC Supply. It probably won't arrive for a few days though. I plan on using the 16mls/gallon concentration. I'll put her back on the Duramycin 10. Thanks again for your input.

    If it's not to much to ask, who is your source for Denagard? Thanks.

    Facial swelling/eye closure

    It feels pretty hard and it's not too warm.

    Facial swelling/eye closure

    I have a 5 month old cuckoo Orpington. The left side of her face has been swollen for over a week. Please see accompanying pictures. Although the eye is almost closed it remains dry. There is no nasal discharge or abnormal smell. She is in no distress; she has no difficulty breathing. She is...
