    Respiratory issues?

    I don't think it would get here or have that exact product nearby, it's okay. I did find this though which is at stores local here in Australia. https://www.petbarn.com.au/p/vetafarm-triple-c-bird-supplement-100g?srsltid=AfmBOopkyK-I9r6NxsFKmq8KB9vdoUA5FBh0UYQF8OApq1c3HK9ovYC7 What do you...

    Respiratory issues?

    Well I didn't go to the vet with her, someone else did as I was sick myself. He gave us 'Framixin ointment' 5gm rather than an actual antibiotic, to apply to both eyes twice daily for unspecified amount of days. It might be because our chicken wasn't doing the noise before and during the vet, it...

    Respiratory issues?

    Hey, if someone could respond asap that would be great. My old english game hen (~9 years old) has had noises while mostly beak closed breathing (if open, not super wide, just slightly), she isn't lethargic which is good, she is still trying to be active and alert, she did have foam like bubbles...

    Are these symptoms of impacted crop?

    Thank you for that, that's a really nice idea

    Are these symptoms of impacted crop?

    It has felt the same shape for the past few mornings. When I feel it it doesn't feel as big as it looks, probably around 2cm. I've been withholding food and giving her soft food every now and again to fill her up. She has water with a little bit of safe oil but I don't think she's been drinking...

    Are these symptoms of impacted crop?

    This is my nearly-5 month old hen. She is usually very active and hungry, but she has been very lethargic and has lost her appetite for the most part (only eats some food that is hand given). She is still alert and can run if necessary to but prefers to walk. Same thing with talking, she doesn't...

    Sick chicken?

    I don’t have any photos at the moment but my chicken is sort of hunched over / shoulders fluffed up, fatigued (moving slowly and barely running), has a lot of dry ‘food’ and I believe regurgitated spit on her feathers under her beak and around her neck. I think it might be digestive related...

    What breed is this chicken?

    Sorry I made a mistake, she does have feathered feet. And here are the whitish feathers around her cheeks

    What breed is this chicken?

    The hens do not have feathered feet. If it also helps, they have very faint strands of whitish feathers on their cheeks, I'll try and get a photo

    What breed is this chicken?

    Can anyone tell me what breed of chicken this is? If it helps, we got them from another person who gave us pekin bantams, but they're a bit bigger than our pekins. And as a bonus, the rooster on the last picture (a son of one of these breeds), is he also that breed but the rooster alternative?

    Chicken Is Not Sleeping, Squawking (Respiratory)

    No foam, bubbles, or any sort of discharge at her beak or eyes. Looking at that video, no, she isn't stridoring. I've uploaded a video taken on Wednesday of the sound she makes. It's become more frequent. She hasn't done it the past 1-2 hours, I've only heard little sneezes but I believe she is...

    Chicken Is Not Sleeping, Squawking (Respiratory)

    She is currently in our laundry (very quiet) with the door open a smidge for fresh air with only a small tiny light which can be turned off. I haven't heard her do overly-massive squawks, just her usual minor sneezes and coughs so I may be working. Yes, I'm praying they diagnose her. No chicken...

    Chicken Is Not Sleeping, Squawking (Respiratory)

    We are going to the vet at 9:30 am tomorrow (for ref, posting this at nearly 8pm), and my chicken keeps squawking and not sleeping. She's inside and I've comforted her and nothing is working. The vet said she has some sort of respiratory infection, gave her antibiotics half a week ago, they work...

    Chicken Respiratory Issues (urgent)

    They don't lay often, and when they do the egg eating is rare and normally done but just one of our chickens (not the sick one). What would you suggest is a good diet for them to have? Also I'm not sure what protein the pellets are, all I know is that they're supposed to help provide nutrients...
