Hi guys. I have a favorelle hen that I noticed limping today. I noticed 2 things. I saw an injury on one foot and what looks like bumble foot on the other. I sprayed vetericyn plus anti microbial poultry care on both. Here are some pics.
any suggestions on how to treat?
I know silkies are really hard to sex, just was wondering what this community was guessing so far. I’ll update once I know for sure. (Waiting for a crow or an egg 😂)
Hey guys. I know silkies are really hard to sex at young age but wanted to ask your opinion on the gender of this 10 week old silkie. I’m thinking I’m seeing steamer feathers on the head to indicate a roo.
UPDATE:
She is much better this morning. No wheezing at all! and she’s back to her normal clucking sounds when I give her treats!!!
I’m not sure what caused her to wheeze, but we’ve cleaned out the coop again this morning in case something in there was bothering her.
I’ve isolated from the others to inside the house now and keeping a close eye on her. Got her some nutrition supplements to put in her water. I hope she gets better...she’s such a sweet girl. 😔
