    Turkey hen w sour crop

    I believe my turkey hen Kaisellin might be suffering from sour crop, her crop has been slightly full and squishy the past few days and she has a foul oder from her mouth. I also noticed some green/teal sort of droppings which are concerning. I'd like advice on how to treat her as it's my first...

    Cancer or internal laying?

    My 6 year-old barred rock hen was acting strangely about 5 days ago, (not wanting to go into the coop w everyone for mealtime) I've had issues w this hen in the past so I waited until she roosted to check her abdomen. Just as I had feared, she had a swollen and slightly squishy abdomen. I...

    possible internal laying

    Yeah that's what im worried about. I was tempted to use ivermectin since I have it on hand, but I've never used it before and i'm worried it would be too much for her to handle right now. None of my other birds are being affected like this, so i'm thinking the mites are more of a secondary...

    I need any advice I can get, I desperately want to save my girl. She's a 6 year old black sex link who recently has become incredibly lethargic. this girl runs the flock so its needless to say I noticed she was off right away. Yesterday, I noticed she was sleeping with her face tucked and the...

    Looking for broad spectrum antibiotics/advice

    Hi all, recently, my 6 year old barred rock Bandi has fallen ill. She's lethargic, though not excessively. She's just been sleeping more and her face is very pale at times. I went through the basics, made sure she was parasite free (both internal and external) I've kept an eye out for...

    Totally bare wing and tail feathers

    My first thought was my drake possibly messing up their feathers, but his wing feathers seem all wacky too, just not as much. I’ll definitely see if more protein helps, I’m sure they won’t complain about more treats lol

    Totally bare wing and tail feathers

    Thank you for the advice! I have looked them over but I didn't see anything, I went ahead and cleaned their coop out and sprayed for mites just in case, though. I've heard of feather fixer but I've never used it, might have to give it a go 🤔 My only worry is that these guys have already molted...

    Totally bare wing and tail feathers

    I noticed this awhile ago but figured they’d molt out or something, my ducks have totally bare wing and tail feathers! Is this a deficiency or mites or something? Not all of them have it. I’ve also noticed they aren’t fully waterproof so I’m definitely thinking deficiency, but what kind? For...

    Sickly poult (VERY WORRIED!!)

    My all time favorite is Hyro-hen, it's probiotics, electrolytes, and acidifiers mixed. (3 in 1) I prefer this one because it's just easier lol another brand I always have on hand is save a chick. They come in three packet bundles, and are really great to have on hand. They can both be found at...

    Sickly poult (VERY WORRIED!!)

    He’s doing great! He’s kind of become a little menace with how much energy he has lol I started him on a higher dose of corid then I had him on before (2 tsp per gallon for 5-7 days. I was worried it may harm him even though I knew it it probably wouldn't, so I had been giving him 1 1/2 tsp.) I...

    Turkey poult pooping blood (Please help)

    This thread seems to have died out so I'd just like to add here; Kaisellin is doing great! I think I was just way over worried after his friend died. He's gaining weight daily and even has some friends to meet after they quarantine. I started him on corid again with a slightly higher dose then...

    Turkey poult pooping blood (Please help)

    He also seems to have a very raspy peep. I honestly thought it was just his voice maturing but it's almost like a whistle sometimes so I'm thinking it may not be normal.
