    Chicken CRYING BLOOD!? *Graphic pictures*

    I got this chicken a few weeks ago that... Yeah, I definitely don't have a chicken that cries blood. But, it seems that at this forum, the only way to get people to even look at your post is to have it be some sort of oddity. Well, if this is what it takes to try to get some help, that's what...

    Major leg problem, please help

    That's her knee, it's just kind of an odd angle in the picture. Although, that does not eliminate the possibility of it of previously being broken and healing wrong. She does have complete movement of the knee though, and all feet, I don't know if she would if it had been broken or not:( But...

    Major leg problem, please help

    Recently, I was given two Pekin ducks by my "friend" who had raised them since hatchlings. This "friend" has a tendency to compulsively buy animals and then neglect them/take very poor care of them. She kept them in her garage on slick, cement flooring. One of them developed slight straddle leg...

    All about POOP.

    LOL! That's kind of hilarious! I'm so glad though, I was getting worried. Geez, everyone wasn't kidding when they said they were messy! I wasn't expecting this though! Thanks so much for the help:) (Here's a picture of my little mess-maker, right after I got him at 1 week)

    All about POOP.

    That's such a relief, thanks! Does it ever come out projectile? I kid you not, my duck could spray a good foot across the room, and it makes a squirt sound!

    All about POOP.

    So, as some of you know, I've had quite a bit of trouble with this whole "duck" thing, and I finally found success in my baby, Motley. I got him at a week old from Reber Ranch, he's about... 4 weeks now? He's a cayuga duck. Anyways, he has some really strange poops. He almost never has normal...

    Botched Science Experiment *Slightly Graphic Pictures*

    Okay, I will post pictures very soon! While I'm at it, do you guys know anything about duck poop? My duckling has been having very strange poops. They're slimy, dark brown diarrhea, and it smells EXTREMELY BAD, and it only comes out at little bit at a time, and it's projectile usually. I feed...

    Botched Science Experiment *Slightly Graphic Pictures*

    I wish I had good news.. After Casportpony mentioned it, I realized I did have a "sticky chick" on my hands. I decided that the only chance I could give him is to get that thick liquid out. Since he hadn't internally pipped still, I figured he was still breathing fluid. I had the idea of a...

    Botched Science Experiment *Slightly Graphic Pictures*

    Yeah, this is all what I was afraid of... I'm honestly shocked he's still alive. So, at this point... I mean, is he suffering? Should I... Put him out of his misery? Or will he just continue hopefully developing if I leave him be? I'll try to contact more people:(

    Feather loss, shaking head in multiple chickens

    This is probably a silly question, but are you sure they aren't just molting?

    HELP!!!!!!!!!! Sick hen

    I'm new to this but will try to give the best advice I can. Bread is not a good thing to feed birds, despite common belief. It has gluten and it tends to swell in their stomach and they can't digest it and it can cause problems. Maybe she's constipated from bread? Was she having this problem...

    Botched Science Experiment *Slightly Graphic Pictures*

    Update on my unborn duckling. Today is the 34th day, and there is still no progress. Thick, unreceded veins, large yolk, no sign of beak, and yet there is STILL movement. This duckling is a runner duck, so it should only take 28 days. The temp has been between 99-100 with 70-80% humidity...

    Necropsy - **GRAPHIC pictures** - diagnosed! Ovarian cystadenocarcinomas

    Thank you!

    Necropsy - **GRAPHIC pictures** - diagnosed! Ovarian cystadenocarcinomas

    You would save yourself a lot of time if you looked into the diagnosis I gave the chicken. My diagnosis matches the picture and symptoms as well as being the most logical explanation.... "Cystic echinococcosis". Here is a picture showing a perfect example...

    Necropsy - **GRAPHIC pictures** - diagnosed! Ovarian cystadenocarcinomas

    This is really interesting, I'm surprised there aren't more responses! I'm new to chickens, ducks, etc., but I do have extensive knowledge in the medical field. Unfortunately, this seems like a textbook case of cystic echinococcosis. What you're looking at is cysts, but more specifically it's...
