I had a Serama rooster years ago that had white stuff building up in his throat. I loved my little Gandolph, he was 1 of my very 1st Seramas. It had seemed to be making it difficult for him to breathe clearly and easily. I posted my question and pictuses here on BYC and someone said it was...
I have a 10yr old Silkie ""rooster "" that has swollen belly and his crop is completely empty like he hasn't eaten in a month. ( for over a week)He was still eating like he's starving but nothing seems to stay in his crop. He has a hard time getting around because his legs are spread so far...

Thankyou everyone. I thought about the aspiration but I wasn't sure if it would help because she looks like she can pop llike a balloon. Where on the body would that safely be done? And how?
I have 2 beautiful girls that their abdomens have become swollen and warm and feels like a water balloon about to burst. I don't think its a reproductive problem since there's 2 at the same time. They hung out in the same boxes maybe bacterial?? They still eat and drink. I've cleaned the boxes...
