    Omlet Autodoor Issue

    I have a Omlet and I think its a "glitch" in the software. Can they resend you a new programming control module? And not one that uses the same software version you have now?

    Sour crop

    She has none of Coryza symptoms. No discharge from eyes, or nose and her wattles, no sneezing, no labored breathing.

    Sour crop

    She passed. I sent her for a necropsy. I need to know what this was and how to help in the future.

    Sour crop

    It is such a "gut" punch. Thank you. Yes I use to be a Medical Technologist and worked in the lab so I'm very interested in learning more to provide adequate care in a crisis. Whether its euthanasia, pain relief, antibiotics or just peace and quiet isolation for healing.

    Sour crop

    She passed. Im sending her to Texas A&M for a necropsy because I need to know if that mass was a growth or water belly. I need to understand the look and feel in order to be more helpful to my other girls in the future. They also offer courses to understand and take better care of your flock...

    Lethargic hen, loss of appetite

    I can't help you. But used to be a Med Tech and occult bloods(human poo) were one of my tests I performed. Based on all your poo pictures I'd say the last one looks improved from the first picture. Good luck
