    Chicken with dislocated hock

    What did the joint feel like before? Was it all loose and floppy or stiff? I have a girl with a weird scrape on her back and leg injury, limping but doesn't feel broken. There's not visible injury to the leg but I don't want to try to manipulate it if it's broke!

    Bantam Ameraucana Thread!

    Any one have bantam wheaten Ameracuana for sale? Age is not a big deal and we would also be interested in hatching eggs. We just want a few and they are just for backyard pets I would defiantly buy birds that would be culled and will not breed them or sell them.

    Egg broken inside?

    I have been reading about other hen stories about this and have read to clean the vet out with vinegar and water. Can a use an infant enema? She is lethargic, has smelly yellow green "poops" around her vent and on her feathers. There was broken egg in the coop that the others were eating when I...

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    I am in NH and looking for a wheaten bantam but would take LF. Our flock of 14 was killed by a weasel. We have traps set and a reinforcing where it got in. Our little wheaten as actually a little blue egg layer we got at a TSC swap. She was our 1st bird and my little boy is really sad. We will...

    Bald Sizzle

    She's been in the house for almost a week and looking better. I just brought in the two other bantam girls. They are not as bad as her but I think now that sizzle isn't there they my pick on the other two more. Time for the roos to go!

    Swollen eye

    She ended up passing away. She was a carrier of Marek's disease and that's what got her in the end. I was giving her tylan for a few days and then tried metacam after a few days on that the swelling was going down and she was able to open the eye but then she started having green poops and...

    Bald Sizzle

    I have a bald sizzle that my bantam cochin roos liked a little too much. She has no feathers on her back and lots of broken feathers. I brought her inside in a dog crate with a heat lamp and have been feeding her extra protein. I plan on giving away the roos and I have a friend making sweaters...

    Swollen eye

    She has been on Tylan for over a week and she is just getting worse you can't even see her eyeball now. I called a local vet that used to work on chickens but he never called me back. I guess there is a another vet called Blackwater in Salibury that treats chickens so I'm going to call them...

    New Hampshire!

    https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/836704/swollen-eye Here is the link to the other thread I've been working on. She has had 3 doses of Tylan with no improvement, it's not getting worse but she's been like this for over 2 weeks. We tried lancing it but that didn't help either I don't think we...

    Swollen eye

    I have tried to find someone local that has experience with this but have not been successful. She has has 3 doses of Tylan and that's done nothing for her. So I guess I will have to wait for the other incision to heal before we try again. Think I should keep her on the Tylan longer or stop at 3...
