Thx for this thread! Very helpful for me, a newbie. My Buffy had a crack at the end of top and it chipped off yesterday. It appears to be just the tip & didn't extend into the nerve/vessels is my understanding. She's still pecking at everything. I did get a deep dish of h20 for her because I...
I posted in a more detailed account on the em thread per a suggestion on here. I can't really tell if the eye lid is swollen in comparison to other I'll attach pix. No bubbles, foam, head shakes nor mucus or respiratory symptoms. No new birds. Got 6 as babies in Spring including her. Neighbor...
This is my Buffy. She's a 25 week old Buff Orpington. I'm new to this and got 6 chicks in June . 2 was ago I was up north while son was taking care of hens and came home to her puffy right eye. No other symptoms. Breathing fine no nasal or eye discharge. Other hens all fine . Everyone eating...
Oh thank you! I'm new to this posting thing. Ok thx I do have neosporin no pain relief. I do have a neighbor who keeps chickens and she has some tylan antibiotic. Also someone on this site said hers looked similar maybe some sort of bug bite and benedryl cleared it up in 2 weeks.

My girls and roo do not snuggle for long. some are calmer and more docile than the others. Some only if I pick them up and hold them. Ruby will sit on me but doesn't enjoy snuggling. Izzy always pecks at my moles especially.
I love the name Odette! What's her personality? My Ruby was the bossy beans of the brooder for awhile. Now she sort of goes back and forth in terms of who's the boss with our Saphire Gem Roo.
