    Help! Turkeys face is swollen - tylan 50??

    i noticed my 3 month old turkeys face looked puffy about a week ago but didn't think a whole lot about since she's been acting completely normal. Well today I was hanging out with them so I decided to do a closer inspection. The other side is flat. Now I'm getting concerned. The swelling is...

    Congested & rattling sneezing chickens PLEASE HELP!

    A couple days ago I noticed one of my 17 week old babies started sneezing. I took note but left it alone because they tend to sneeze every now and then. Well it has gotten worse each day. It's been about 3 days now and all my chickens are sneezing and 3-4 of them sound congested and gasp...

    3 week old chick trying to mate with mom

    I would very much doubt that this behaviour is an indication of gender. My chicks love to jump all over their momma - trying to peck her eyes, hang onto feathers etc. - kinda normal in my experience. CT Yes they do that too, but this is not that. I'm hoping it's nothing like you say. Thank you...

    3 week old chick trying to mate with mom

    I have 3 chicks that hatched on Feb 15th - Presidents Day- we were hoping for hens but I think Abraham is a Roo because he was on top of his mom, grabbing her neck, and doing the jig...ugh! (She's a naked neck so I could see he had ahold of her good) Does this confirm he is a boy? Didn't think...

    Sick Duckling? Please help

    I have 2 ducklings. I'm a first timer duck owner. Had them almost a month. Seems to have a hard time breathing. Like heavy breathing. Also likes to be in the corner by himself like he's in trouble...most of the day. Nasal passages seem clear and are able to clear them. The quacking sounds like...

    Hi Everyone!

    Hi!! And thank you He is breathing rather heavy and sounds congested. I've put him in the bath tub so he can play and clean out his nose good which seems to help some, but the breathing is still heavy. Not sure what to do. It's been going on for about 2 weeks that I've noticed. He doesn't act...

    Hi Everyone!

    I just joined BYC today. I'm so excited to be here! My name is Jessica, I'm 39, in Michigan and just bought my first chicks & ducklings on April 29th. So this is a whole new experience for me. We are in the works of building a coop and they currently stay in a wood box. All of them seem happy &...
