    Swollen leg/foot

    Hi there guys! I know it's been forever since I've been on. Most of you probably won't even know me anymore. I got married and moved out of my parents' house (obviously) and don't have chickens anymore, so I've not had a need to post. But anyway, I was at my parents' house today and my mom told...

    Dog Attack. Tylan 50 question

    Thank you. I'm going to continue giving her Tylan because she does have a bit of rattle-y breathing sometimes. I think it's probably physical damage, but I'm not taking any chances. There aren't any vets that treat chickens anywhere around here so I have to treat my girls on my own. I flushed...

    Dog Attack. Tylan 50 question

    My leghorn hen hopped the fence into the neighbor's yard today and their german shepherd got ahold of her. :( Her tail area is pretty ripped up. Will giving her Tylan 50 help prevent infection? I know it's mostly for respiratory infections, but does it help with skin infections?

    Can chickens have reptile calcium/vit D supplements?

    We use Dumor when we shop at Tractor Supply, CowTown (local) when we shop at CowTown, and Lone Star (also local) when we shop at Lone Star. When they are free ranging, their feed is enough, but being cooped up, it just isn't cutting it. Their eggshells are starting to get too soft and if we...

    Can chickens have reptile calcium/vit D supplements?

    My hens used to be completely free range, but due to the rise in predator problems, they are always kept in the coop now. We are in the process of building a run, but it isn't completed yet. They aren't getting enough sun or calcium right now. They still healthy, nice bright combs, shiny...

    Atwoods Bantams. A little help here please?

    I picked up 4 little bantam babies at Atwoods today and could use some help figuring out what they are. I think 1 is either a Gold Dutch or a bantam Brown Leghorn, because it looks exactly like this (internet pic) The other dark one I believe to be a Gold Sebright because it looks just like...

    please please please say this isn't coryza

    I used Tylan 50 for 4 or 5 days and then stopped and started giving her oregano oil in her water. That's when she started getting better. The giant scab along with a huge hunk of that cheesy gunk fell off of her eye. It's a good thing I don't have a weak stomach, but it made my mother gag. Both...

    please please please say this isn't coryza

    I noticed yesterday that both of one of my pullet's eyes were swollen. One way worse than the other. I took her in and started her on tylan 50. Just now I decided to soak the bad eye with a warm wet rag and it opened up to reveal a nasty cheese like substance. It doesn't stink. No other...

    Emergency Help ASAP My hen is VERY ill

    She just died. She went fairly easy. Just laid down in my lap, closed her eyes, and died. Can't save 'em all I guess.

    Droopy hen

    You poor thing. :( I have a hen in the same state right now. She's pretty much dead, but still breathing. How did your girl do? I'm so sorry you never got a reply.

    Emergency Help ASAP My hen is VERY ill

    Doesn't seem to be a prolapse. I'm gonna shoot some vitamin E oil down her. Can't hurt, and if it's a neck problem there's teensy weensy chance it might help, right? She's one of my favorite hens. I don't want to lose her. :(
