Today, she fought me more during treatment, but is still extremely lethargic. I decided to deworm her as well, with Safeguard (fenbendazole) Goat Dewormer. Her comb is still very pale, and she is still eating very little. I took some pictures of her outside. I noticed that her poop was closer to...
My hen, Roja, has had a rough year, she got Mycoplasma and is the last of her flock. She is 5 year-old (maybe more) ISA brown hen. She has been doing pretty well despite all of this. Since the passing of her sister, she started living inside to help with her depression. Yesterday, I noticed her...
I moved the pus a bit and her eye started bleeding. I also found a clump of what I think is harden blood in there. I didn't take it out because I panicked seeing the blood and I was worried it making it worse. I am horrified. It's looks so much uglier. Now a lot more pus comes out and is still...
I'm sorry no one else has responded. I found a similar thread that might be helpful to you. I've never had any bulling issues in my flock, so I can't help you. My flock was made up of three hens, and they were all ISA browns. They are very docile breed. From what I have read Plymouth Rocks are...
I got slightly better pictures of her eye. It's hard because whenever I get close, she immediately closes it. I think it is a pile of pus on her eyeball. She no longer stays in the nesting box anymore, now she just sits near her food and water. She also seems to have less energy? I can't really...
From time to time, I put garlic cloves in my chickens' water in order to boost their immune system. My mom's friend always gives their chickens garlic water, and she says they never get sick. Sadly, I do not have an answer to the rest of the questions. 😓
I am not experienced, but you should probably separate the hurt chicken from the rest of the flock so she can heal. What breed are your chickens? Also, what are you feeding them? Sorry, I could not help much. Hopefully, someone more knowledgeable will answer. I wish you luck! 🙌
I don't know anything about ducks, but I thought this would be helpful to determine what it is. Can you take pictures of her legs? What breed is she? How is she currently doing? Is she active? Is she still drinking and eating? I'll try to investigate a bit, to see if I can find something...
Hello, it has been a long time since I have updated. It has been really rough for me and Roja these past weeks. Last week, her sister died due to different causes. Ever since her death, Roja is even more lethargic than before. Now she is my only hen, and I'm worried she'll be depressed by...
Roja is latergic again, but her tail is not down anymore. Her eye seems to be bothering her. She is constantly scratching it and wiping it with her feathers. I have some oxytetracycline, should i give it to her? Will it help her eye and her latergic state?
I took some pictures of her eye yesterday, but the quality is really bad. She kept moving and my phone camera isn't that good. I would take pictures now, but she cut the inside part of her bottom eye lid, and now i can't open her eye for long. That yellow thing is a bit of her bottom eyelid.
My Roja's appetite is back to normal! When I take her out to play, she is digging and pecking almost like normal. Friday, my other hen escaped the coop and accompanied Roja-- I noticed she was more energetic with her sister. They are separated now. I got the terramycin Thursday but I haven't...
I checked her crop in the morning and it was empty. My order for terramycin keeps getting pushed back, other than cleaning her eye with saline, can I do anything else? Her eye hasn't gotten worse, but I'm worried it will. I've been also giving her electrolytes, and she seems a bit less lethargic...
