yes it looked just like the photo showing on the front of that video! Definitely not maggots from flies. If I just treated them with Ivermectin (I have to double check that's actually what I have at home currently), do you know if its OK to treat them again now with one of these other products?
For the first time ever, I found a pile of poop about a month ago in my chicken coop that had white worms in it. I quickly treated my whole flock, waiting 10 days and gave 2nd dose on 6/23. I thought we should have rid them; but we came home after a weekend trip for the 4th of July and I found a...
My 3 ducks were attacked last night. One gone with nothing left but a puddle of blood. 1 survived with almost no injury. The other has many missing feathers and an injured bill. What can I do for the bill? It feels very soft/broken…has gashes/cut marks on the tip. I’ve rinsed with saline and...
Unfortunately I don’t know how old she is :( I got her from someone else with very little information. I’m thinking it must be because everyday there is more and more feathers in the run but no one is pecking each other or has any wounds like they’ve been attacked. And she hasn’t laid an egg in...
One of my girls has been loosing a TON of feathers. At first I thought it was our young rooster…but then I started noticing how scraggly Ms. Peaches looked, and then came the bald spots. I’m almost positive she must be molting, but looking for others opinions as this is the first time I’ve had...
A little Update! I'm happy to say that with antibiotics and wound spray, my girl has rejoined her sisters and is back to her normal self! She looks MUCH better...just a little more healing to go but healed enough that the other girls are not pecking at it. Almost all swelling has gone away and...
Yes I just feel so bad for her!! Especially with this heat wave we are having, was 105 yesterday! She’s got to be so uncomfortable.
I was giving her a sulfamethoxazole antibiotic. I stopped yesterday in fear that if it was something else I may be killing off good bacteria needed but now that...
Here are some pics from this morning. That little spot that looks like a scab has gotten bigger over night. I also see the redness around her eye has turned to green bruising. When I separate her feathers on the back of her head, behind the bruised eye..the skin is also green. Poor girl :( I...
Thank you for your reply! Those scabs have just shown up yesterday but I’m not sure that they are actual scabs…they almost look like the skin is dying or something…? But prior to them appearing there was not any punctures or blood/wounds there.
she is eating and drinking without issue and seems...
