    Hen gaping and wheezing

    I was thinking this might be my next treatment. I’m at a loss to what it could be. I’ve basically ruled out a lot of things it could of been. She only has the wheezing and occasionally gaping. When she does gasp it seems like she will quit breathing at anytime so I’ve been massaging her and...

    Hen gaping and wheezing

    No head shaking, nasal drainage or foaming eyes. She occasionally sneezes and will scratch her face like something is on it but it is only if she sneezes. I know gapeworm isn’t common but I did do a treatment with safeguard. I did do another Tylan 50 injection tonight’s she is still wheezing but...

    Hen gaping and wheezing

    Crop is good actually pretty empty. She’s not been eating enough to fill it. I’ve looked several times in her throat and havent seen anything. I’ve also massaged her neck trachea and esophagus in case there was something lodged. Nothing seems to be in there. It’s just odd. I just feel like...

    Hen gaping and wheezing

    I have a hen 5 months old that started wheezing. I brought her in the house almost 2 weeks ago to keep an eye on her. She got worse after 3 days (due to not having antibiotics) started her on Tylan 50 injections x3days. She seemed to get a little better then back to gaping again. Gave her...

    My chicken was attacked by a dog, can he get sour crop from lack of movement?

    I didn’t see any injuries except his back. The dog could of squeezed him. I’m not real sure. He’s still with me and it’s been over 24hours so I’m hoping it’s not internal. We lost 2 polish and a Sussex so really don’t want to lose him now. I just wasn’t sure if the stress could of caused a crop...

    My chicken was attacked by a dog, can he get sour crop from lack of movement?

    So yesterday my flock was attacked by the neighbors dogs. My rooster fought well but has back injuries (which I’m treating) and is now in a dog crate resting. Anyhow I noticed today he seems to have sour crop. I’m treating that as well but I don’t want to handle him too much due to his wounds...

    Help, I have a feather picker!

    If your picked chickens are bleeding you might want to separate those ones as well. Not sure if any still are but once blood is drawn they all seem to pick at it and can cause more damage. I had one that was picked at because my Rooster drew blood on her so they all started picking at the blood...

    I woke up and my Rooster I saw dead

    Ok I gotcha. They are kind of like that now. The roosters were white with accents and the hens mainly reddish brown with some white. Deffinately good for knowing early who was who.

    I woke up and my Rooster I saw dead

    It might have been because I said I wanted to keep one Rooster of each breed. I actually had 2 roosters of each breed tho lol. Well not now lol.

    I woke up and my Rooster I saw dead

    They are now at 15 weeks so I’m sure the battles might get worse. We have been hoping to build another coop for the Sussex and the time is just going by. Right now we are doing the silkie coop so hopefully we can have one for the Sussex next. I want to free range the Sussex and cinnamons just...
