    gynandromorph chickens

    Hello again. I just wanted to post this because I had made a post a couple years ago, in reference to one of my chickens who was laying what looked like a fertilized egg. Well I got a few rude comments. This just popped up in my email about such a condition so I just wanted to share it. It is a...

    Swollen ankle on a very fat duck

    My very large Pekin hen has a sore ankle, I've soaked it in Epsom salts and keep her confined but I want to give her a round of antibiotic since I just came upon some and believe it will help. Any idea on dosage for augmentin 875? Please and thank you. I did just spend an hour looking for info...

    HELP HEN LAYING FERTILE EGGS WITHOUT A ROOSTER!

    Funny you should ask, I posted the same question oh about a year or so ago. Same thing, dot appears to be a fertile egg laid by a hen with NO rooster around. Boy did I hear it! Lol, I believe that freaks of nature do happen, we both have one. As far as, if it would hatch out a chick, well I...

    Sick Silky/Game cross: Lathargic can't eat.

    She's around 4, hasn't laid an egg in a couple years. I'm afraid she's not doing well at all she bent down to eat and fluid came out, her crop is empty, I'm afraid at this point I just want to put her out of her misery she was OK a couple of days ago but went downhill very quickly. Thanks for...

    Sick Silky/Game cross: Lathargic can't eat.

    This poor girl, it's not the first time she's had an eating problem. I de- caked her bottom and turned her upside down and fluid came out but every time she bends down to eat more fluid comes out. I tried stroking her neck to see if something was stuck. Last time I gave her some mineral oil and...

    Have a bi-chicken?

    Well I see now posting here was a mistake, it WAS an honest question. I shall retract it. She was laying eggs that had a red spot/Vien and/or the dot that in any other egg, makes them fertile. No I don't have a rooster, since this bird is a cross I'm guessing it's just a freak of nature. I think...

    Have a bi-chicken?

    Just curious if anyone else has had or knew someone else who has had a bi-sexual chicken? I have a Hen+- that has laid a few fertilized eggs and sometimes tries to crow. Anybody? Should I call Ripely's?

    Rehoming: Special needs Peking Hen needs loving caretaker NE Md

    Thanks for the tip, I did delete my email and took some pics, and thanks I hope a lonely duck lover has room and time for her. I was just sick when I saw they trimmed both wings!!! Poor thing can barely walk, what was the point in that I'll never figure out!!

    Rehoming: Special needs Peking Hen needs loving caretaker NE Md

    I was given this duck only knowing the owner had passed. Turns out she is crippled and had BOTH wings clipped (as furious as I was about the wings, since she can barely walk, an educational chat w the owner wasn't possible) she is very sweet and wants companionship with another duck but the rest...
