    Constipated or eggbound hen

    She’s about a year and a half, I did put my finger in her vent and didn’t feel anything, let alone anything I think would be an egg. She has been laying normally and normal eggs. Her poop is green and white. She mostly eats later feed, scratch, and has oyster shells and other things for calcium/...

    Constipated or eggbound hen

    Egg bound or constipated chicken?? I have a hen that is lethargic and kind of walking funny. I brought her inside and gave her a bath and let her soak for a bit with her vent under water. She had a lot of poop stuck on her. She also has pooped before and after the bath. I’m not sure if she’s...

    Lethargic chick- was attacked

    I had a meat bird chick attacked by my dog yesterday- mostly just feathers plucked. But the chick is still being lethargic. I would have let it inside but it screamed to be with the others. It’s crop seems to be full and the only outside injury is a slight cut to the skin around the crop...

    Day old chick with broken leg

    She had been taken from the nest by another chicken. I hadn’t separated momma from the others yet since I had been busy and didn’t want to make her uncomfortable. Really sucks but I know she has at least one egg the same age as the chick’s. So hopefully there will be more babies. Momma hen is...

    Day old chick with broken leg

    Side not as well. I have previously dealt with injuries with my ducks and chickens- mostly with animal attacks though. As well as if this chick continues on she will be an indoor chicken

    Day old chick with broken leg

    Her breathing is strong as well, as it is easy to see her breathing. She is currently lethargic but if I am to disturb her she will move. A while ago she was attempting to walk around, so she’s not out of it and is still wanting to survive

    Day old chick with broken leg

    I also do want to take her to a vet, but i and my family do not have the money. And my family wouldnt anyway since there’s a big chance of losing her as well thinking it’s not worth it

    Day old chick with broken leg

    I did clean the leg very carefully and applied neosporin. I know it’s got to be hurting but she’s not panicking and she is very calm. She also hasn’t gone into shock since she will respond to me touching her and getting moved

    Day old chick with broken leg

    So I have a chick that’s a bit less than a day old. (I hatched her) She was removed from the nest and her right leg is broken in at least one spot- the bone protruding out the back. Chick is resting and I separated her from everyone and have her under a heat lamp. Any suggestions of what to...

    Ducks and chicken attacked

    Also- my duck is able to eat! She’s also gotten better at understanding when I have a bowl of water for her. Once she realizes it’s there she’ll go to town drinking it. She’s doing good, it’s the main issue of not being able to see. so all injured animals are eating and drinking and all doing...
