    Nasty Tumor, no symptoms.

    Upon examining, I could feel the lump is exterior. I also noticed I could feel feathers at the top of the lump. I've also noticed smaller lumps that look like feathers trying to come through. I searched feather cysts and found that they look very similar to what I'm dealing with. Most people do...

    Nasty Tumor, no symptoms.

    So my Roo Roo has this nasty tumor. We noticed it a while back and now it's gotten bigger. We didn't do anything about it initially because it didn't and still doesn't seem to bother him at all. He's two years old now & his personality has stolen my heart. At first we thought we would let nature...

    2 yr old Hen stopped laying 6+ months ago

    So I get home when it's already dark so I didn't want to bother the girls for a picture but I picked up two eggs and they appear to be different in size and slightly off by shade. I'm guessing it's one from each! Could they be laying one every other day and switching off? Anyway. I'm gonna say...

    2 yr old Hen stopped laying 6+ months ago

    I can post a photo tonight when I get home :) Mine are not molting. They did last summer, there was a whole mess of feathers everywhere so it was pretty obvious when they did.

    2 yr old Hen stopped laying 6+ months ago

    Hi, I have 2 hens. One of them, my black Australorp went broody about 6 months or so ago. We broke her by taking her out of the coop and keeping her out with the other hen (read online to break her sooner then later so she can eat and "snap out of it"). Since then, she has not laid eggs. Our...

    Bleeding from Rectum! I'm scared pls help!

    They only had Sulmet I live in what is considered a city area so there's limited resources. I will be very careful to treat her but I'd appreciate any additional advise! Should I treat the others chicks as well or just separate them? She is bleeding little droplets every now and then, like...

    Bleeding from Rectum! I'm scared pls help!

    I called the Seed & Feed where we bought our chicks from (they're always so helpful!) and they recommended "Sulmet" to cure Cocci! I'm rushing now to get some now.

    Bleeding from Rectum! I'm scared pls help!

    I just received a call from home that my 4 month old Silkie, "Tofu" is bleeding from the rectum. They are cleaning their area now. I'm really concerned and really scared. I'm reading about Coccidiosis & it just all jumbles together. Is it fatal? What can/should I do? I'm really freaking out...
