    Chick Can't Walk

    I know this is an old article, but just in case it helps someone else, this sounds as though the chicks tendons were misplaced. I had one like this - its legs were stuck out to the front and it literally dragged itself to move - occasionally flapping its wings - it almost looked like a bat...

    Strange and changing/shrinking pupils

    Thanks for that - having read the faq's, it seems that perhaps I'm too much of a newbie on here. Would anyone be willing to post the picture for me if I can email it to them please?

    Strange and changing/shrinking pupils

    I posted on here a while back that one of my hens had a pupil that went sort of starry and shrunken, but who seemed fine otherwise. She has continued to be in good health, and happily laying, but now her other pupil has gone starry and 'spread', and appears to be getting smaller. She shows...

    I don't know if it will work to revive this old topic, but the dodgy eyed hen is still fine in every other way. However, her other eye has now changed. If I were any good on this thing I'd try and add a picture, and maybe I will try and work it out later. The pupil looks as though it's been...

    Ah, what a lovely bunch you are - Miss Lydia, I lost my Nan in Australia a year ago, and she was also animal mad, my absolute heroine, into all things organic, permaculture etc, and one feisty little lady. What a lovely thought to have a replacement across the oceans. Thank you. Are there...

    Thanks Miss Lydia, I have experienced the bloody claw/beak thing with the parrots. Sometimes have to trim them and you cannot see the quick. I always keep a styptic pen to hand, or trimmex powder, though I have to say that I got myself a little hobby drill and tend to grind them rather than...

    Thanks Miss Lydia, she still seems fine apart from that pupil, so fingers crossed it sorts itself out. No babies or baby vitamins here, but I could presumably use my parrot multivits and that seems like a good idea. Don't want to stress her out catching her if I don't have to, so I'll just...

    Thanks Miss Lydia and gritsar - I can honestly say that I don't think I've ever seen one of the others have a go at this particular chicken. She's a light ssx cross - are some breeds more susceptible to Marek's then? Having said that, as she has none of the balance issues that present with...

    Quote: Thanks Terri - my goodness you have quite a range of pets. Have never seen/heard of a pitweiller:rolleyes:, all sorts of other crosses appearing over here and people asking crazy money for them:lol:, but have yet to see one of those - got any pics? Thanks for the ideas, I don't think...

    Quote: Yes indeed, but couldn't see a way to get that with my details - Kent - The Garden of England. Many of you seem to be in the States, is it a U.S. site?
