Hi everyone, I finally got the chance to have access to the internet. Sequoia, my hen who is sick, is alive but as before she's only stabilized. I made her a little vest with shoelaces that were attached to a overhead board to help her stand and gain back movement back in her legs.But I didn't...
I still haven't gotten my Internet back so I won't be able to post the picture of the parasite.
Sequoia has not made significant progress. Although she can move one of her legs and slightly stand on it, before she couldn't do this. She can't stand on her other leg and cradles it in front of...
Hey guys I'm so sorry I haven't written back. My Internet has been down because i didn't pay the bill and I went to use my neighbor's wifi signal in order to write back. I'll write back later if I can get access to the Internet.
My hen, Seqouia, is doing better. When I left her up, she...
Maybe you should carefully cut her vent feathers so that the poop doesn't get stuck. I did that for my hen and it's much easier for me to clean her up.
I'm sorry about your hen. Give her a chance. My chicken was egg bound and now an egg has possibly burst inside her, but she's been steadily going on for three weeks. I'm going to take her to the vet soon to see if we can get treatment for her.
I'm not sure if she's going to make but she's still...

Sequoia's red, waxy comb now looks dry and puffy. The cuts near her mouth are from when she tried lifting herself out the edge of the dog crate. I wasn't there to scoot her back.

I do have a new veterinarian place that treats chickens. The other place I went to was expensive as they were charging $65 for the exam (to see the patient) and if I decided to euthanize my chicken it would cost $70. But I understand why the prices are so high because they need a fair income. My...
You can try finding them at Micheal's Arts and Crafts store. Visit their website to find a store near to you. Hopefully there's a residential store in your area. Good luck!
Does anyone know why she can't walk? Did she strain so much that now she's paralyzed?
Today she's doing well. Her face doesn't look as pale and she still has her appetite.
Tomorrow will mark the 3rd week that she hasn't been able to walk or stand. I'm thinking about putting her down, but I'm...
Thank you for replying.
:)
I thought so as this is a difficult topic to go through. Do you know what are the chances that she'll become an internal layer, and how does this condition develop? Is it over time or when the hen can't successfully pass an egg? In her case, it was the next day.
If...
