The feather was a hackle feather. I first thought he got something caught on him when I first saw it on a second look I saw it was the very strange looking feather. Here is a photo of him
So I did not know where to put this question, so here it is I have a barred rock rooster and I have never seen this kind of feather, does anyone know anything about it? It is just so strange.
Could it be a difficincy or just a malfunction of the feather making process
Her nose is cloged and her face is like a balloon. I don’t know what to do. Can someone help? The other side of her face is OK just the one side is not.
The vet based it on the fact that all the birds got sick at once, and that it was the only thing that they had access to to eat. The vet thought that it was food born, but I need the feed tested to confirm. But how to get the feed tested is the issue.
To Start out the ducks have mostly recovered and are now doing ok.
I went to check on my Flock on Tuesday and I found my 1 duck dead 2 having seizures and the rest shaking and acting very strange. No injuries, no holes in the enclosure, they had plenty of fresh water, and it was not a hot day...
I was out doing errands today when I was near a different feed store and found they had the duravet B Complex in stock. is this the one you were talking about?
I was going to get the B complex at the feed store but we’re all out. So I grabbed what I thought to be the next best thing.
Is there anything I can buy at the pharmacy or grocery store that will do the trick. Will human vitamin B complex work and what would be the dosage?
I have her in a medium dog crate with some food and water but today her leg is still the same. I got her the poultry cell which had B12, but I couldn’t get the just B12. The local Feed store is out of that supplement. I also placed her in the pool today and let her clean herself. I also helped...
Here is another
I highly doubt it was a predator since I usually only let them out when I can watch them and I didn’t have the chance yesterday and she was walking just fine so it happens sometime either last night or this morning
The duck is 2 years old, I feed all flock feed, and normally give vitamins to the water. When a baby she was given the vitamin B complex and the duravest vitamin and mineral water additives.
My main concern is her all the suddenly not being able to walk wel. And severely limping.
Let me see...
