    Hen is pale, not standing

    I found that yesterday and ordered it, thank you! I also ordered acidified copper sulfatefrom Jedd's, I read that is used for sour crop as well. Just hoping something arrives soon. I'm going to start giving her monsistat by mouth today since that's all I can immediately get my hands on.

    Hen is pale, not standing

    Thank you. We tried to give her nystatin cream I had onhand last night, along with moistened chickstarter (handfed) and water, but this morning it looks like she threw everything up. Getting some miconozole today. She's not eaten/kept down much in several days and is very thin now. We're going...

    Hen is pale, not standing

    Her crop was squishy again this morning, no change in her behavior. I tried ordering nystatin liquid suspension from Chewy and my vet approved, but Chewy cancelled the order saying they won't fill prescriptions for food-baring animals. I've called two Tractor Supply stores, Petsmart, and Petco...

    Hen is pale, not standing

    She's still eating and drinking, but she throws up liquid after. She had a little more energy during her bath last night, had her head up and was standing a bit in her bath. Her crop is squishy today. Still no egg, but our chickens haven't been laying consistently lately. I really wish she's...

    Hen is pale, not standing

    Update: No change since yesterday. We gave her some meal worms yesterday and she ended up throwing up a bit, which smelled sour. She moved herself overnight and also appears to have had diarrhea (normal looking, brown. no blood or foam). She drank water this morning and picked at her food a...

    Hen is pale, not standing

    She's about 5 yrs old. Wyorp Rock, you're right, the chick started doesn't have antibiotics, my mistake. She did move her position overnight, but she seems to be scooting herself around, not standing/walking. She drank a bunch of water this morning and ate a few blueberries. We have her in a...

    Hen is pale, not standing

    Hi! We just noticed on of our hens lying in the pen in the mud against the fence. We cleaned her off and she's pretty lethargic, she also isn't standing and her face is pale so assuming she's anemic. I was at the coop yesterday and didn't notice her, so no way to tell how long she's been like...

    Help! Can't get foot infection under control

    Thank you! I did think of that but my vet previously told me they weren't equipped for surgical repair for avians. Now I'm not really sure what that means exactly with regard to avians specifically, why it would be that different from other animal surgeries they perform. I'm hoping they call...

    Help! Can't get foot infection under control

    I have an Old English Game rooster, about 3-4 years old and about 1.8 lbs. He got in a fight with our big rooster about 6 months ago and his toe was broken. We took him in, cleaned the infection, wrapped his foot and waited. Eventually the toe fell off, leaving exposed tissue. It looked like it...
