Thank you! I’ll be sure to ask the vet about those on Tuesday when I go!

No smell at all that I noticed! And I understand! I don’t breed or anything w my girls they’re just my backyard pets who lay eggs for me!!

I want to say a lot better!!! It got really swollen these last few days after we removed puss and I got worried and made and appt with the vet for Tuesday but looking at it today the white film is almost totally gone and swelling is starting to go down! She’s still acting normal too so I am...

Also tho it didn’t seem like it was attached horizontally? It looks more like puss on her eye I will try and get a better picture later!

Omg I really hope we were not yanking on third eyelid going to leave her alone for a few days an continue meds 😩😩😩

Thank you for you reply! I’m in south Texas Btw. We removed as much puss as we could today with saline solution and paper towels but it wasn’t like any of the videos it was a very small amount. We removed as much puss as we could but there’s like a thin film attached to her eye that we couldn’t...

Also aside from her eye issues she is totally fine! Eats, drinks, poops, and walks!

Hello everyone! Having issues with one of my 6 month old Easter egged pullers with what I’m pretty sure is eye worms? Noticed swelling in her last week but got caught in the winter snow storm and wasn’t able to leave my house all week. Picked up some terramycin as soon as I was able to and have...

She ended up having Mareks disease and had to get put down. Just praying this doesn’t infect my whole flock!

not long! I refilled the water bowl earlier today and she was drinking out of it! Going to get her vitamins and electrolytes and treat everyone for cocci tomorrow. I’ve looked up a few different things and it’s just hard to tell bc my chicken has no other symptoms aside the from walking issue...

So, today I noticed my only bantam chicken have issue standing and walking. She was walking and running fine in the coop but I was noticing she kept falling back on her butt! She seems fine, no weight loss, not lethargic, is eating grubblies but avoiding water. Kind of unsure what to do since it...

I have a Rhode Island Red rooster that I ended with in my first round of chicks last April. Ive hand raised but now that he’s coming into maturity I’m going to need to rehome him. I live in Downtown San Antonio and his crowing is bothering neighbors and I only have 3 hens that I keep in the...

He's still not crowing, he does like a little honk noise right now lol So, I try and pick him up whenever I can because my idea was it would get him used to people but should I stop doing that? I just hold him and tell him I'm in charge mostly lol

Thanks for the info! Yeah, we always knew he would have to be rehomed if he got too unruly, but he's not really aggressive yet and the ladies still dominate over him so I'm hoping he doesn't become to aggressive! It's so hard to imagine! He still eats out of the palm of my hand! :(

Thank you so much for this info!!! After talking it out with my roommates we were still really unsure about getting getting another chicken. I think I'm going to try and introduce her using these methods. I'll probably keep them seperated for a few more days then introduce her to Melody my...
