Our chicken's eyes have both healed from the MG. We kept an eye on her for a few days in the beginning because she wasn't eating at all. Her appetite came back though and she seems to be eating a lot, however she's still very light and not gaining weight back. Would this still be due to the MG...
Here are pictures of both of her eyes. The closed one is very swollen and protruding. I actually don't see any discharge right now coming from the other open eye, but there definitely has been clear fluid coming from both the past few days. I'm not sure what the black spot is below her open eye...
She recovered from the fowl pox scabs and her comb looks healthy now. But she has been noticeably thinner than the other chickens since then and never started laying eggs again. She is only 9 months old, so she was laying for 2-3 months before she got fowl pox and stopped. Her other eye does...
We have a small flock of four backyard chickens that free range all day. About 2-3 months ago they all had fowl pox (scabbed combs/faces, weight loss and stopped laying eggs). Since then three of them have fully recovered, but one has not. Her scabs healed and her comb looks healthy now, but she...
Now that our chick is a couple weeks older and bigger I have finally figured out where her leg is injured. It’s high up on her leg where it’s feathered and is very swollen compared to her other leg (probably double the size). We have been trying to let her go without hobbles but now the majority...
Ok thank you. She is definitely mobile now. We have kept her separated from the brabanter that hurt her since it happened. The brabanter is actually double the size of the Java now, so I feel like it’s for the best at this point since her leg isn’t very strong. I know eventually the Java will be...
Our java chick was sat on by a slightly larger brabanter chick when she was 2 weeks old. Her left leg was injured, she was unable to walk initially and it has been turned out to the side ever since. We kept it in hobbles using athletic tape consistently for the past 3 weeks. She now has regained...
