    Three Silkie Roosters need good home

    Thanks! I will probably still need to rehome them because a big problem is the constant crowing but I may try a rooster flock.

    Where are you from? Just wondering distance-wise. Sadly, I am too busy with roosters to take her or else I would in a heartbeat. Good luck :thumbsup

    Please help!

    Update: She passed recently after this post was made. Unsure of what the problem was but suspected respiratory infection. She was too young to fight it off and we hope she rests in peace in chicken heaven.

    Dog bite: Single Puncture on duck's rear end

    Try to keep other animals from pecking at it and apply an ointment if you can. Try to clean it out and make sure the duck is getting good food and water.

If I left her alone she would drink water until she vomite and would drink more water. She is a little slow. We usually feed her crumbled but today we had no choice but to...

    I use Sulmet (sulfamethazine sodium) that goes into their drinking water. Last time my hen had the eye problem it was borderline at the place of her possibly losing her eyesight since it was swollen. It did miracles to her.
