Hi all - we have Lil old White here - came back home one fine day to see her laying in grass with her legs kind of folded. We’ve been taking care of her with heat lamps separating and gave her an epsom salt bath, Nutri Drench, tried feeding her she seemed better for a couple days (we were giving...
Thank you so much! So surely not worms? I looked up gasping for air and began thinking it’s Gapeworm! Would you be able to say what type of respiratory illness it most resembles so I can go research and read up on it? Or would anyone else?
Last year we hatched 6 fertilized eggs; 3 females and 3 males. Two of these males are my boys - everyone’s promised not to lay a hand on them and for good reason! Hei Hei and Wei Wei are nothing but pure joy! They sit on the bench with me and run over with the brood when i come

@Wyorp Rock here you go! One taken this morning and the other just now as I went to close the coop. My partner said he heard her making crying noises at night - not sure as I was asleep and didn’t hear them. I’ve purchased VetRX delivering tomorrow until I can pinpoint if they need dewormer...

Hi everyone!
I am asking here to confirm if the chickens have gapeworm or some other respiratory sickness - because what started as symptoms observed for a week and a half in one of the old Rhode Island hens has now spread to my favorite little chicken Judy, whose showing vastly different set...
I ask because initially only the little one showed a limp leg that it lifted up now another one had a swollen joint. We received the eggs from my mom in law’s friend - incubated them and the rest are all good and healthy but one passed from being too weak of spraddle legs; then these two and...
