    PLEASE HELP! Hen with dying tissue

    My pet sitter separated my hen out while I was on vacation because she couldn’t walk. I came back and and all I noticed was an extremely swollen jaw and hard ears and waddles right away. There is also black discoloration that appears to be dying tissue. I have no idea what to do and I doubt she...

    Can I use safeguard pellets on chickens? Dosage?

    My chickens have roundworm diagnosed by a vet. He said to use safe guard that goes into their water but all I can find is the pellet feed. Only poultry it says it’s for on the packaging it’s for is growing turkeys. Can I use this for my chickens? If so how much do I give them? I tried calling...

    Please help! Mystery sickness

    Update: found a vet an hour and a half away. He examined my two birds which were showing further symptoms. One was extremely underweight and the other recently started acting lethargic. I thought I brought some pretty good samples to see what it could be. After looking at a fecal sample under a...

    Please help! Mystery sickness

    Also, I have a duck and two turkeys I read online they can’t infect each other because it’s they have different species of coccidia. I have seen nothing from them so I assume they are good? I have chicks I am raising who have been on medicated feed before but have been exposed to my sick...

    Please help! Mystery sickness

    Yes I have corid. Can I still eat my birds after treatment? I wanted to process some but definitely wasn’t planning on it now they are too young. One bird started acting lethargic yesterday. No other symptoms besides that.

    Please help! Mystery sickness

    I sold the eggs before I noticed the bloody poop, I definitely would not have sold them if I knew my birds weren’t healthy.

    Please help! Mystery sickness

    I have no idea what do do. My egg customers said my eggs smell like petroleum and diesel. They have been pooping blood but no other symptoms. I just cracked some of my eggs now and they seemed fine I’m going to see how they taste. They have been barely laying and it seems to be spreading to all...

    PLEASE HELP! Bloody chicken stool

    Starting yesterday I have been seeing some bloody poops and I’m starting to get really worried. They are acting fine for now but I want to try to get ahead of any problems. Could this be coccidiosis or parasites? If anyone knows what this could be and what to do please let me know I really...

    PLEASE HELP!!! Chicks gasping for air

    they Been on soil for maybe only 3 days. No red fruit or berries just grass and feed. The poop is not runny most of the time. The thing is I’m not really sure they have it. I think the symptoms are too minor for me to go full on with treatment. I also am not very educated on it in general so I...

    PLEASE HELP!!! Chicks gasping for air

    Btw this it was more repetitive yesterday but the video is just to see what I mean by “gasping”. Of course it’s not severe but I’ve seen birds with it worse just drop dead so I want to get ahead of the issue.

    PLEASE HELP!!! Chicks gasping for air

    I’m working on posting the video so I will reply with that hopefully soon. Here are the chicks they are a few weeks now, the black one is about a week younger. One of the buffs was skinnier but now it’s not looking too bad. I swear they are looking better but I just really care about them and...

    PLEASE HELP!!! Chicks gasping for air

    No, the poops look healthy. The only thing is I have been seeing some red… I think chickens shed their intestinal lining if I’m not mistaken (I read that somewhere idk if it’s true my birds don’t experience it from what I see) I haven’t seen it this much which also just occurred to me now to be...

    PLEASE HELP!!! Chicks gasping for air

    Aditional info, I only saw the gasping session once and the chick has stopped. Due to what I have seen with birds getting thin and gasping im just a little paranoid

    PLEASE HELP!!! Chicks gasping for air

    Not sure what you mean by how hot but today reached 90 but at their age that should be comfortable with shade and access to water. The other ones seemed fine other than that one out of the two that I was concerned about. We have well water and other than problems with minerals from the soil and...
