    Swollen bottom, but not egg bound? *UPDATE-we had to put her down-EYP*

    One of my Australorps has the swollen bottom. I first noticed her closing her eyes while standing. She has been getting soaks, lubed, and calcium for 2 days now and nothing. Her poop is normal. Pretty sure she has not been laying, but can have a tendency to lay large double yolk size eggs. Any help?

    Egg bound relieved//still not right

    She passed it earlier today and was bound since yesterday. She seems content for tonight. She was quite a bit more relaxed since everyone went to bed for the night. She has been eating good and I have been putting electrolytes in her water. The vet gave her a shot of calcium and some pain meds...

    Egg bound relieved//still not right

    My Buff has finally laid her egg that was stuck, but has gone back into the nesting box. There was only one egg according to the x-ray. Any ideas why she would be doing this? I am deeply concerned. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Not Sure if You've Got a Pullet or a Cockerel? Click here! thread 3

    I got 3 Australorps from Tractor Supply and one had shorter wing feathers and developed tail feathers slower than the other two. That one was a Roo.

    My flock

    These two are a mess. The one on the left is always coming up and tapping on my butt to get my attention. The girl on the right, I can't keep her off me. The other day I had to catch her as she came up while I was standing.

    Hello

    Thank you all for the warm welcomes. We have Austalorps, Isa Brown, Red sexlinks(I learned on here), Dominiquis, a RIR, and Cornish XL Rocks. We didn't quite know we were getting the XL until they astonishingly outgrew the rest. Kinda sad about it too, because I have one that is quite a...

    Ball on toe

    I got 4 chicks from a feed and seed, 2 RIR & 2 Dominique. One of each of them appear to have a hard round ball on a couple of their toes. I first thought it was just dried poop due to so many chicks in the brooder. I have had them for 2 weeks now and it's still there. I have tried soaking in...

    Any ideas on what these girls are????

    Are they all so personable? I have one that takes it to the next level, but all 3 are sweet and like being handled. I also have 3 Isa Brown girls and only one of them is super sweet.
