    Bloody nose?

    Hello it’s been a few days and I think the spot has gotten a bit bigger. I’m not sure if I’m looking wrong but the spot around her nose seems to have been inflamed too. I noticed her scratching at the place well. Unfortunately, it seems her molting period started this week as well and I dont...

    Bloody nose?

    I do have some hardware cloth around the coop. I didn’t consider it before you mentioned it but it definitely could cause injury. Thanks for the advice!

    Bloody nose?

    I should mention this is only on one side. Hen is foraging and eating ok otherwise. I only noticed today when I came back home. There’s no sneezing that I saw from her either so maybe an injury?

    Chicken’s nail got hurt, what to use??

    Alright, thank you, everyone. I got her toe to stop bleeding. I managed to get some styptic powder on her, but she did pull off the bandage that I put on her foot. On the bright side, she is eating extremely well.

    Chicken’s nail got hurt, what to use??

    Did anyone use neosporin for this type of wound before? I heard it’s usually used on the foot, but I have it with me right now so wondering if it’s good on the toes

    On closer inspection, it seems some of her toenail has come off.

    Chicken’s nail got hurt, what to use??

    It’s good to hear that it cleared up for your hen! Yes, mine is a blue laced Wyandotte with pretty clean feet, besides having dirt on it. Do u think I should wrap her toe in anything to prevent her from picking on it after putting medicine?

    Chicken’s nail got hurt, what to use??

    Hello, I’m requesting some help for my hen that injured her toenail today. I think she got it stuck on a bite of wire while jumping off the roof of the chicken coop. I think the bleeding has stopped but is there anything I should put on her would to help her?

    Soft shelled egg with blood inside

    She’s been laying for a while now. I think this year she should be at least 4. I give them crumble feed, oats, and have recently been giving some boiled egg to them too. They also enjoy getting some crushed eggshell, but I don’t do oyster shell. Sometimes they get let out to forage for...

    Soft shelled egg with blood inside

    Monitoring her for the moment. As of right now, she’s being a normal chicken and eating well, along with digging around. She seemed excited to be let outside too.

    Soft shelled egg with blood inside

    A soft shelled egg was just laid by one of my blue laced wynadottes and I found that it was mixed with blood. Sorry, there was some bedding that got stuck with it in the picture below. I never seen this happen beforehand, but any ideas on what it could be? I should also add that the blood isn’t...

    A sign of broodiness? Yellow droppings and odd behavior.

    I offered some mushy food yesterday with some acv, but both hens didn't seem to like it. I'll try again later with just water and crumble. I saw her drink a good amount of water last night just before bed. As for her diet, she seems to have taken a liking to a goji berry tree I have in my...

    A sign of broodiness? Yellow droppings and odd behavior.

    Hello all. Yesterday, one of my blue laced Wyandottes was acting a little strange. Her wings were hanging a little low from her body, while her droppings all contained sort of yellowish urates. She had also held her tail a bit lower than usual. When I let her out, she wasn’t moving around as...
