    Hen with Canker! Please help me know what to do to treat it!!

    I wanted to let everyone know, since I didn’t put it in here. The Fenbendazole & Metronidazole worked beautifully (along with scraping the plaque) to get her better. Lucy lived another very healthy year & 9 months. Then a particularly terrible/lasting (plus impacted) sour crop got her on October...

    FLORIDA!!!!!ALWAYS SUNNY SIDE UP!!!

    Hello Central Florida peoples! I’m trying to find a home for 4 kittens that were brought to our porch from a feral cat I befriended. They are not quite 11 weeks old. The mom and her older kitten was taken & is now on a horse farm. They got fixed yesterday. I miss them! Now it’s up to us to find...

    I’m trying to find the Central Florida thread. 🤔 Anyone know how to find the location-specific threads? I’ve been there before. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Anyways, I’m trying to find good homes for 4 sweet 10-week old kittens. (1 boy, 3 girls) I made friends with a feral cat that turned out to be pregnant! 🤦🏼‍♀️ She...

    Dominant hen or roo? (Meet Butter)

    We hatched out 4 chicks under a broody this last summer. Got two French Black Copper Maran x Moss Egger (dad) & two Alchemist Blue x Moss Egger (dad). The two that hatched from the Alchemist Blue mom eggs turned out to be pullets & the two of the FBCM eggs were one cockerel & one pullet. We got...

    Into 2nd week of treatment for sour/doughy crop; next steps?

    It was amazing to see that after my favorite hen Lucy died, the morning after my 17 & 1/2 yr old cat Bee died. 😔 October was a rough month for me. But what seems to be the same thing that killed Lucy, did not kill Hoola. Thank the Lord! 🙏🏻🥰

    Into 2nd week of treatment for sour/doughy crop; next steps?

    My gal Hoola is now back in the coop! Kept giving her probiotics, prebiotics & the papaya enzymes. Just switched between all of them. Gave her chick feed mixed with water and papaya enzymes when her crop was still big. Just so nothing else could back her system up. Gave her small amounts of...

    Into 2nd week of treatment for sour/doughy crop; next steps?

    I got the papaya enzyme chewables from Amazon. I just use a mortar & pestal to crush them & put it on her food. We keep oysters & grit in the coop, plus they go out foraging most evenings. I keep grit & a few oyster shells in the sick hen’s cage too… that was in case she ingested too many...

    Into 2nd week of treatment for sour/doughy crop; next steps?

    The nuke option got a couple of good poops out of her, but it’s still about the same. Just got back from the trip. And yes! I wrote a one-page typed instructions guide for my hubby! He followed it well enough, other than letting her out with the other chickens to forage for 3 hrs! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️...

    Into 2nd week of treatment for sour/doughy crop; next steps?

    Also bought some papaya enzyme chewable pills. Should arrive tomorrow. She is so lively… wants to eat & drink constantly, regardless of her huge crop! Hoping she will eat the papaya enzyme pills willingly.

    Into 2nd week of treatment for sour/doughy crop; next steps?

    I gave my hen the “nuclear option” today. I tried all the other things. I’m hoping we’ll have a major blowout (the best kind) and her crop will finally be emptied out! 🙏🏻 She’s been stuck inside for about a week now. My mom is coming here for my birthday & we have a trip planned for just two...
