    Hen With Swollen Abdomen 🤨

    Hi! I have a 2.5 year old Golden Laced Wyandotte who has been kinda off the last few weeks. I was watching her and seeing if she’d improve, however, she has slowly seemed to decline.

    Advice for Hen with Sour Crop???

    Update: So last her night her crop felt slightly smaller and this morning it had reduced drastically and had only a little left in it, I’d say 80% cleared.

    Advice for Hen with Sour Crop???

    This is very helpful thank you! I did end up providing her with plain water for the first couple hours and then gave her garlic infused water for the remainder of the day. She took about 10 sips in my sight over the course of 8ish hours.

    Gapeworm or Respiratory Disease?

    I really hope that that’s all it is. The only thing is though, I’ve noticed my oldest EE girl just recently now shaking her head maybe a bit more and another hen honking as well, and just today one of my Golden Laced Wyondotte girls looked like her breathing could have been a little off, yet...

    Gapeworm or Respiratory Disease?

    Hi! Okay so we did start implementing sand into our coop in about the end of May, and I have noticed that it can get dusty when I’m sifting it, but it is construction sand not play. We did add First Saturday Lime at the very beginning of adding the sand. That’s the most recent dust I can think...

    Gapeworm or Respiratory Disease?

    Hey everyone, one of my hens has been showing some weird signs of something to do with her respiratory, but I’m not sure what it is. After reading an article on the two I think it may be; I’m thinking gapeworm, but I don’t know for sure. If any of you have delt with gapeworms could you please...
