    Wry neck

    I have a 5 month silkie mix that has a bad case of wry neck. I brought him in and we've been having to feed him. I give him a food mash so he can get water also. I've also been giving him some Nutridrench. My question is. How much Vitamin e does he need daily? I don't want to overdose him. And...

    Ick on my showgirl

    I have a showgirl that was just fine two days ago. I was taking pictures of her. I go out this morning and she has this green/yellow crust around its neck. Any ideas?

    Chickens with eye problems

    I have 4 chickens that I just can't figure out what's wrong with them. 2 older chickens we've treated for an upper respiratory infection and that hasn't helped. It hasn't spread to other chickens but I can't get them better. The 2 young chicks I think were just born blind? Any help or ideas...

    What chicks will I get with this cross?

    So, I have a showgirl rooster. He's been pretty much fertilizing whomever he can get his hands on. 🤦 If he mixes with my cuckoo marans hen, what are the possibilities of what the chicks will look like? Thank you. 😊

    Flock sneezing, some sound congested, rooster's crow is squeaky

    I put the vetrx in a pan of water and warm it all up. This is the silver I have. It's a liquid

    Flock sneezing, some sound congested, rooster's crow is squeaky

    I don't know if it'll help because I'm going through about the exact same thing right now. I have a "farmer" friend that told me to warm up vetrx, put it in a clean waterer, and then add microbial silver (a very small amount) for 5 days. Someone else also told me to spray them in the face with...

    Multiple new chicken owner random questions that's happening in my flock.

    Ok. So, a week ago we had a terrible rain. My coop area got flooded so we had to move the chicks until the flooding went down. Now that everything is back to normal almost my entire flock is sneezing, has runny noses, some of them are making gurgling noises, a couple of them have swollen right...

    Sexing my new salmon favorelle.

    I've seen and read that in a lot of places also. Which is weird to me. Every hatchery sells them and a bunch of locals where I live sell them also.

    Sexing my new salmon favorelle.

    I have a new salmon Favorelle. She's about 4 weeks? The lady didn't know. She also swears she's a girl. These bottom feathers are super black though. Any thoughts?

    Chicken with an injured leg

    I have a chick that I'm assuming hurt her leg when a roosting bar somehow fell. Her gift leg was swollen and red for a day. We felt everywhere for a break or fracture but didn't feel anything. It's now a week later, and there is no more redness or swelling but she's still limping really bad. I...
