    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    Well I initially wanted this thread to be a weekly report of my quail's progress(and to find alternatives when my treatment doesn't work), and I have to admit, I've been lazy. I only applied the prescribed ointment once a day right before she goes to sleep. Thankfully, despite the neglection on...

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    :eek: Does your quail endure it..? Mine is quite rebellious so I wouldn't dare a soak or a wrap. Afraid that she would break her leg or something while writhing. I try to hold her for 5 minutes after applying the ointment for absorption, that's as far as my quail would let me do without raising...

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    I am using this thread to keep up with my quail's progress but it' taking much longer than I thought! It's two weeks into treatment and I don't know how effective the prescribed ointment was really :( . I sprinkled some oxymycin powder in the ointment yesterday, however, and it might be working...

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    Oh I didn't think of absorption really, I am going to flip the pad to the other side so the plastic side contacts her feet and see if she doesn't slip on it.

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    The drug doesn't have a name or content written on it so I just have to believe the vet saying it's antibiotic:(

    ! AGRESSIVE QUAIL !

    I think it's hormonal. My quail used to be really tame, but tried to peck at eyeballs and hairs anytime she got the chance, like a pupoy will chew at anything when its teeth grows, at that age. And she wouldn't follow me like a chick anymore. If there were things to her un-liking, she made me...

    Housing quail - boinking and hurting head, getting them to go into a coop?

    They will get frightened at anything. If you don't want them to boink, you either have to make the cage ceiling very low(like, the quails have no room to stretch their wings at all) or very high(over six ft or so). In average sized cages and aviaries you just pad the ceiling with foams, piled up...

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    :hmm Tricide neo seems to be the thing lately, and I might turn to that in a week if the vet's ointment doesn't work. I have oxymicin powder, whoch is supposed to be a similar thing to neomycin so the dosage and everything would have to be the same. I just can't imagine what my quail's going to...

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    It's a week into the bumblefoot treatment and it's not getting better/worse. If anything, slight 'cores' in her bumble are more discernable, so I think it's leaning on the 'worse' side. I have been applying the ointment liberally on her feet twice or three times a day, changed her bedding to...

    Eggs Blue on The Inside? Celadon Genetics?

    I thought all coturnix eggs are supposed to be blue on the inside! I live in asia and every quail egg has greyish blue tint inside its shell. My quail used to lay some shelless eggs and the blue would show through thin membrane. She even laid a spoltchy blue egg once. Does that mean those hens...

    Those pictures of her shows how happy she was with you. She must have had a good life.

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    Thank you so much for your concern. I think she is grade one going on grade two. The problem is that lesions seems to be everywhere from toes, little joint pads, webs between toes, to heels. It's not typical black spot on on the heel side, though that's where it's most apparent. I think I can...

    Not-surgical treatment of quail bumblefoot?

    Hello, I didn't think it will come to posting this thread but my quail's feet issue is growing into something serious. I went to the vet a week ago to treat her vomitting, runny poop, and weight loss. It turned out that she was infested with parasites. I and the vet saw that her footpads were...

    To cull or not to cull.. please help

    I liked this post instead of 'sad' by accident, sorry... :hit As a quail owner just the idea that something like this might happen to my quail always haunts me but sadly I still don't know what I would do. I really wish there were right answers or solutions other than 'its your choice', but it...

    Deciphering Adult Female Quail Calls, low pitched call (video inside)

    1st sound seems to be a normal chattering, they do it all the time. Maybe it becomes a slightly edgy "you are there, right?" call if it gets louder. 2nd sound is more like scared, lonelier "where are you? I am all alone!".

    Quail suddenly scared of me?

    Mine gets terrified when I dress in black. Maybe a raven fearing instinct? Quails really get scared at silly things :)

    Induced molting without fasting?

    I think I accidentally caused forced molting when I tried to get my quail off laying. I restricted her daylight to 7 hours per day. Anything less than 8 or 9hours will do, I think, but you have to reduce it a little by little, and keep them somewhere cool for the most of the time. More light, on...

    Help with my quails eye!

    ...description of vitamin A deficiency(or too much of it, in rarer cases)? I read this post on quail necropsy and the symptons seems quite similar. *I am inserting the link here, but you might still skip it and find other articles because the post includes really graphic images of a dead quail...
