    Male Turkey and male goose problem

    [So I've talked about the goose on here before, and while he doesn't go after us humans, (except when he is behind a fence) and our male turkey, he has slowly become more aggressive. And four-ish days ago he decided to attack our male goose, they weren't in the right stalls so they were able to...

    Update and questions

    This is just me being a worried chicken mom, so we've given our 3-ish month old chicks Corid water for about 10 days, (diluting it the past 3) and I just want to see if it would be wise to re give it to them in another week? I've read that it is recommended but want to get info from fellow...

    Coccidioisis in young chicks

    No photos of the poop, I probably should've said this, I ment that we refill the water every night so it goes on through the night and into the day, so the only source of water day and night is the medicated water, we are using liquid Corid(also have powered) the weather has been VERY warm so...

    Blind duck

    I separated her in the morning but she is never really around the other ducks, she for at least two years stays up in the woods alone, she did have a friend named Amber but unfortunately she did recently die, Amber helped her navigate around when Cuddles was just blind in one eye, but even...

    Blind duck

    She can hear, I moved straw around and she'll get a little defensive. I don't know when she ate last, I'd assume it was the other night, she might've eaten some of the pellets but I don't know as shes outside, the light is a good idea! I'll look into that in the morning, thank you

    So we have a about 9 year old duck, She is a khaki Campbell and her name is Cuddles.. Awhile ago she lost her eye become of our two boy ducks, and she's been slowly going blind in the other eye, as of recent I'm pretty sure she is completely blind. She is separated from everyone else so no one...

    Random guinea hen

    DE may not be the name of what we use, as we have a different kind of dust but we used to use DE so that's what I'm calling it, but we have used DE since we've had our birds (14+ years) unless my parents are calling it the wrong name, but thank you!

The little thing has just made chirping sounds and...

    Random guinea hen

    I know about the diseases and such yes but I don't think any of them actually interacted with it as they were more scared of it, I just am worried and wonder what we should do or look out for if they start acting strange. We don't know if the neighbor has them, we just know that they have had...

    Whats the best way to put down your hen?

    Hello, I come back for a simple question, we have a hen who's not doing well and we are now thinking about trying to put her down just so she stops suffering. We have never really put down our birds except for once and that was our first year of getting chickens so we don't know how to put them...
