    Water belly Question

    Hi everyone, My 3 year old New Jersey Giant hen, big Mama, is suffering from water belly. If I’m being honest, I believe it could have even been there last year but just not to this extent. Today, I drained it for the first time. I got 40ccs out and then left the needle in for it to drain for...

    Stuck egg in vent, causing prolapse. Now trouble passing poop.

    And just a large syringe and flush it in there?

    Post prolapse help!

    Not sure if my response triggered since I didn’t respond to this actual post! I did below if you can see? I just coated some lettuce in tums for her

    Post prolapse help!

    Hello, So I have made sure she has calcium (tums) as well as oyster shells. This morning when I soaked her, I got some poo out (just a bit) and she has only pooped minimal and very “mucusy” it seems since. She is puffed up and uncomfortable but also eating and drinking . I cannot feel an...

    Post prolapse help!

    Hi everyone, my Big Mama ( almost 2 year old jersey giant) had her first prolapse on Monday. I was able to get the prolapse back in. Now, so a few days later, she is penguined and seeming to struggle to poo? Her vent is constantly contracting and I am unsure how to help her. When she prolapsed...

    What do you use for the enema content?

    I think this is exactly what my hen is currently experiencing! Her prolapse is staying in but she is struggling to poo it seems. I seperated her and started her on Tylan in case she had an infection from the egg since she did have a soft shell I had to pull out (no yoke) How is your hen?

    How did your hen do? This is seeming to be what my hen is currently going through after her first prolapse

    Swollen Eye!!!

    Thank you so much. Mohawk is still doing good, she’s angry because since the predator attack I’m not letting them free range right now, which I normally do. I do very much believe they are happiest free ranging so I always want to provide that but until I am able to discard of this predator...

    Swollen Eye!!!

    You have been an absolute savior thru this. Today has been awful as 2 of my ducks were taken by a predator. 1 is gone and 1 is in critical condition, still fighting. Mohawk is actually seeming a lot more active as the day has progressed and seems to be on the mend. I plan to vetrx her again...

    Swollen Eye!!!

    I wanted to give an update - her eye is no longer shut this morning! However she still is not herself as she isn’t wanting to walk around and really just wants to stand/roost. I have her roosting right now and I applied the vetRx to her head/comb/wattle/eyes/nose and under wings and will reapply...
