    Also, the bloody tissue that was coming from her mouth either fell off or she scratched it off.

    Mouth injury to 8 week old chick

    Thank you! I checked in her mouth today with the help of a friend. Her tongue is pale and it looks purple underneath her tongue. She also appears to have what looks like a cut on the side of her tongue. There is some blood on it still. I didn't see anything else.

    Mouth injury to 8 week old chick

    The tongue is just pale. I didn't see anything lesions or plaques. I am having someone help me hold the chick to get a closer look today. Could it be bacterial at all?

    I can't get a good picture of the inside of the mouth right now. I did see in there. It looks like the tongue is white. Maybe it's thrush?

    Mouth injury to 8 week old chick

    I noticed one of my chicks had something stuck to it's mouth. When I tried to help her get it off, she shrieked and I realized it was attached to the inside of her mouth. I picked her up and noticed she had some blood around her mouth. I smelled blood. Pictures are attached. What should I do...

    Hen with sticky saliva on/in beak

    I attached a picture of the feed and also a cute pic of the babes :) Bunny is flourishing. She is gaining more weight and adapted to the group just fine. I attribute it all to this food honestly. Those chick vitamins work too, the electrolytes and probiotics.

    Hen with sticky saliva on/in beak

    Breaks my heart. So sweet. Our sick chick, Bunny, made a full recovery. I don't know how or what it was but what I noticed was she couldn't keep the crumbles down because of the excess saliva. I had purchased an organic local chick starter/grower crumble that was more pellet like. Bigger bits...

    Reintroducing chick after recovery

    I have 8 BO chicks. They are 5.5 weeks old now. One was sick about a week and a half ago. I separated it. She is now doing great. The other chicks are now outside and I want to reintroduce her. Should I wait longer? I'm also worried about bullying. THANKS!

    Seems like the saliva is still there. It gets better and then acts up.

    Hen with sticky saliva on/in beak

    I’m so sorry about your chickie. My chick is having the same issue. Today is day 4. She seems better. She is getting food and water down. She seems happy. I put ACV in her water, a good amount. I also am using chick vitamin powder. I’m putting powdered garlic (organic and very good quality) in...

    Sticky mouth on 4 week old chick

    I noticed one of my BO chicks was acting funny. I immediately separated her from the rest of the flock (they are still inside at this point). She was shaking her head and sneezing. Earlier that day, I heard one of my chicks talking and talking. She wouldn't shut up. It was this chick. She...
