One of my roosters has died after losing his voice. I did a mini necropsy and didn't see any blockages in the trachea or any signs of parasites.He never stopped eating or drinking but he did start to struggle with breathing. Just curious if anyone had any other ideas of what the issue could have...
I have a peahen with a swollen eye. the picture was from yesterday and today it's completely swollen. I washed it out but I'm wondering if there is anything more I can do for it. Im in California so I can't get any medication and we don't have any local vets.
One of my guineas appears to be missing scales on one leg. I'm not too worried but they do not want to put any weight on the leg. Is there anything that might help it heal/give comfort?
One of my guineas has a broken wing. To me it looks like it might be impossible to fix since there is protruding bone. Has anyone else been able to fix a break like this or should it be put down?
I am working on getting a link. They are mixed Coturnix quail. The healthy ones are in a brooder with warm and cool ends and eating a gamebird starter. This baby I have separated out.
No curled toes. I'm trying to upload a little clip but it's not allowing me. It hasn't eaten any of the food but it's a gamebird starter that I grind for when they are small.

My aunt's duck has had what she thinks is bumble foot for a while now. She has soaked her foot and put on a spray for injuries but it hasn't seemed to improve. The heel of the foot and up the leg are swollen and hot but there are no obvious signs of injury. I was wondering if there was an...
I'm making a new coop with a wood floor and want to put down a protective layer. I am wondering what would work best a layer of vinyl or flex seal. I didn't know if the flex seal would be toxic at all.
Today for the first time it has started to open it's eye a little. They eye itself doesn't look like it was punctured or anything. I will have to see if I can find a vet near me.
One of my guineas was attacked by a predator. Most of the wounds are superficial but it's eye is having issues. The swelling that it originally had has gone down some but it is still not opening the eye. I have been using the vetericyn plus spray. Is there anything else that would help it?
