I am so sad to say she just passed away a couple hours ago. :,( I am so sad about it. but I did all I could for her. just wish I could have gotten to her sooner. thank you to everyone for the encouragement and support. my poor tom is sad too. I can only try to find another hen as sweet as her...
April, I can't thank u enough for all the vital information. I hadn't been able to find ANYTHING online for something this severe. so im praying I can get her well.my hen is overweight and I Thot maybe that is why she has had such a hard time. I just had a surgery on a cyst on my ovary, and am...
I have a turkey hen emergency!! my turkey hen started laying for the first time a month ago, and since, I've had a couple soft eggs laid and have seen her look egg bound, but she ended up laying her eggs just fine!! we'll I come into the coop this morning and see this. it literally looks like...
thank u!! I gave her a drop of vitamins last night and tried to put a little wrap around her legs but she kept wiggling out. Ha! But this morning I looked in, and sure enough, she has her legs under her!!! Yay! Thank you so much!! She's a little cute showgirl
Well I've hatched a baby here that seems to have her little legs too far forward? So instead of under her, or out to the side etc, she tries to paddle her way where she wants to go. They are CAPABLE of going under her, but they keep going out front. Im not sure what to do for her? She is a...
oh that sounds like it was challenging!! Im just so thankful its helping her. Since I was out of options too!! Its amazing how quickly some are able to just cull them rather than help. I don't have a ton of chickens. Only about 30, and I've raised almost all of them, so I try to do what I can...
OK everyone, I gave my hen 1cc of tylan 50 yesterday and used vetericyn in her eyes (kinda pricy) but let me tell you, she is so so much better today than she was yesterday!! So just ONE DAY of this and showing improvement! I really believe it started as something simple, like the mild case of...
the really bad eye seems to look opaque, but she can still open the other one a little when I clean it. This all started as little watery bubbles in one eye. And has gone to this in a matter of 3 months now. But I should have kept a closer eye on it. But I'm just worried I won't be able to...
I'm not sure what coryza is but I will look it up and get some terramycin for her when I get.the tylan. Keeping my fingers crossed that I'll get her some relief from those and I'll post pics just as soon as I know! Thanks so much
I don't know what those scab things are. I haven't tried getting them off. I guess I was thinking they were covering a blood spot or something, but they are really weird. I will get the tylan tmrw and praying she shows SOME kind of improvement. If you think of anything else I should try let me...
I just don't know what else to do. Especially if she has spread this to others. I didn't see anymore white in her eye, but its hard to look very deep. The scab things by her eyes seem to be on a raised hard part of the skin around the eye. The vet really didn't know what it was. And I don't want...
OK so I cleaned her eyes again and attempted to open the really bad one and then took pics of the other one too. She can kinda open her left eye but it doesn't stay open for long. Here is right after I clean them. And the scabs right behind her eyes? Idk what those are or where they came from...
