    4month old chick dislocated hip/leg? Help!

    I have also given her a nice Epsom salt bath/soak. I know that helps my sore muscles. Figured it wouldn’t hurt.

    4month old chick dislocated hip/leg? Help!

    I’m concerned that she still isn’t acknowledging that leg. She will not put any pressure on it at all. She doesn’t seem to be in any pain. I get her up and out of the cage 3 times a day. Stand her up and let her drink and eat. And she will try to hop around on her good leg. Here is the leg...

    4month old chick dislocated hip/leg? Help!

    A vet is not an option right now. I tried a sling, but wondered if it was causing her dangling leg more harm than good. Then I tried a splint. That seemed painful for her. I think the break is above her elbow, in that vicinity. This is what I ended up doing last night. She prefers to lay on...

    4month old chick dislocated hip/leg? Help!

    Hey guys! I need your help, once again. I have around 40(ish) free range chickens. I have a group of 4 chicks that are around 4-5 months old. I was giving out snacks yesterday and (I didn’t see it, but heard) one of my big chickens trample one of the babies. The baby flopped over the side of...

    HELP! Dying Rooster!

    Thank you all! Satan was such a little butthole, but we all loved him, and enjoyed him! He was my guard rooster. It didn’t matter what time of the night it was, if something came on the property, he crowed. Whether it was a bear or a raccoon! He let us know! Every time I pulled out of the...

    HELP! Dying Rooster!

    Satan is still down. He is better than he was, but still not up to par. He’s still not eating very much. Drinking some. I have some powdered antibiotics, I might try a round of those

    HELP! Dying Rooster!

    The neighbors thought it was coccidosis. A few of his younger birds were just fluffed up, huddling together. And then they died, one right after another. He went around 2 weeks, then a few more died.

    HELP! Dying Rooster!

    Maybe his face turning white is from age. These are photos from the last few months. The white us present, just not as bad

    HELP! Dying Rooster!

    I believe he is a Minorca, or when he was well, the spawn of Satan himself The last 2 days, he has felt more like himself. He seems a little more spry. He isn’t better, by any means, but he has perked up a bit. He did eat a boiled egg yesterday, and today. I have tons of before photos of him...

    HELP! Dying Rooster!

    Crop is good Poo is more less water. He’s not eating much. A little bit not much. He is drinking better today. He will close his eye when I put my hand up to it. Is there any explanation of why his face has turned white? He’s always had a very handsome, vibrant red face! Here is a photo of...
