    Euthanized chicken had purple face and comb

    Thank you for your answer. Does that mean that she died slowly? It seems like it took a long time for her to be returned to me. I thought that euthanasia in that manner was supposed to be 30 seconds like it is with a dog.

    Euthanized chicken had purple face and comb

    Today my chicken was euthanized using euthasol. I didn't see her during administration of the drug. After death (but not before), her face was dark purple. What would have caused this?

    Hen mouth hurts too much to eat

    Thank you, much appreciated. I did not smell anything in her mouth and didn't see any mucus buildup, but only one of the many times I opened her mouth, I did see a clear mucus string from top to bottom near back of throat. I bought Spartrix for canker, and Medistatin for Candidiasis (before...

    Hen mouth hurts too much to eat

    Hello! I was advised to post in this forum because my sweet girl might have Fowl Pox or Canker? She is very hungry but food seems to hurt her mouth too much to eat. I'm attaching a photo of her mouth (the dark is the tip of her tongue - not her mouth). I also a video of her behavior. She...

    Chicken has sore throat?

    Thank you for working through this with me. She is my only remaining bird. None of the symptoms you listed but she is not roaming around foraging like usual (I'm guessing just because her mouth hurts) because she seems otherwise normal. I suspect she'll start to decline if I can't get enough...

    Chicken has sore throat?

    She acts like she wants to eat. Even her very favorite, fresh corn, seems to hurt her. I'll keep trying different things. I just fear that there is something that I'm overlooking or not aware of that could alleviate the pain.

    Hello! Thank you. I've tried cold scrambled and sunny side up eggs, pumpkin and pea purees, smashed fruit, and wetted crumble. I'm going to try the things you suggested.

    Chicken has sore throat?

    I just checked again - no masses, nothing stuck and no smell. I did notice that the tip of her tongue is black but it looks like natural coloring.

    Chicken has sore throat?

    Hello and thank you. I've looked in her mouth and see no lesions or growths. The back of her throat may be a dark color but it also might be shadow or natural coloring? She is a Welsumer, so has dark colors. I just looked again and the tip of her tongue is black but it does look like natural...

    Chicken has sore throat?

    None of those but I will try. I have tried cold scrambled and sunny side up eggs, pumpkin puree, pureed peas, and wet crumbles. Any idea on what would make her mouth hurt to eat? I looked inside and see no lesions or growths. We are currently battling lice with ACV baths, DE, and Poultry...

    Chicken has sore throat?

    My eleven year old chicken is having a hard time eating. She is hungry and wants to eat but squawks loudly and jolts away from food after taking a bite, as if it is attacking her. Has anyone experienced this? There is only one vet sort of far from me who charges $295 just to see her. I don't...
