    Turkey with yellow discharge from ear

    someone told me that they had a rooster that sounded like this and the vet said it was casein buildup and he used an instrument and cleaned it out. I'm thinking infection because of the odor, but he's not acting sick in anyway.

    Turkey with yellow discharge from ear

    I've got a 3 year old royal palm tom turkey. He had a scab on his ear the other day - I picked it off today and it was yellow scabby underneath and really stunk!! It doesn't look like infection, but don't know what else it could be. I applied some neosporin on the area but there is still a lot...

    Sick Tom Turkey

    You're right - not too much about turkeys! I switched to Duramycin and he got better in about 2 days; I probably didn't continue it long enough though and about a week and a half ago, he started leaning to the side again and not perching on his roost. So I'm back giving it to him, but he's not...

    Sick Tom Turkey

    I have a 6-7 year old royal palm tom turkey. On Monday, he suddenly became weak - leaning to the side, head drooping, not eating. Put him under a heat lamp, wormed him with ivermectin. no improvement. Fecal was watering and white, not frothy, no nasal discharge. I have SMZ pills and have been...

    Anyone know anything about sheep in labor?

    does she look like she's pushing? I personally would probably try to reach inside to see what I can feel. There usually isn't a bloody discharge unless the ewe is in labor and if it started yesterday, there could be some problems.

    Curly feathered pigeons/doves?

    I just bought a frillback over the weekend at a reptile show (of all places); not sure if it's a hen or cock. For frizzle chickens, you breed a frizzle to a non-frizzled cochin; do you do the same thing for frillbacks? I don't think so, but I do have one lone "barn pigeon" that just was flying...

    Quiet ducks?

    muscovies are quiet - sometimes called the "whisper" duck.

    Horns or no horns?????

    No, NO! think of the positive - you won't have to dehorn as many goats!!

    Horns or no horns?????

    my billy goat is polled and about 50% of his babies will be polled. I have bred polled to polled and never had a problem. There seems to be a common thread that there will be problems when you do this - it is usually thought that you end up with a morphodite (half male, half female in...

    Horns or no horns?????

    I have all my goats dehorned too - they may not used them on purpose, but if you're bending down, or worse if a child is near by, and the goat swings its head, the horn can go in a child's eye and horns really hurt!! Not to mention the damage they can do. We still have a patch on the wall of our...

    Mixing silkie colors..pics of how I got certain colors

    thanks for clarifying that she is a partridge - the man that i got the buff rooster from, said she was a partridge; but she's not as dark as some of the ones that I've seen on this thread. What color are partridge when they are chicks? do they look like the "chipmunk" color that americanas are like?
