So I have 3 silkies , 2 hens and 1 rooster. My rooster is over 2 years old, so I assumed he was sterile after checking dozens of eggs and not finding a single fertile one !! Last week I went to the pen and there were eggs under them so I decided to check them before throwing them.....well to my...
I know how much to give and everything I just need to know if I should crush it and put it in a syringe or if I should just give it a whole or in one piece
Can someone please tell me if I should crush this quarter of a pill and put it in a syringe with water that I'm going to give my Ancona for pain relief... Otherwise I have empty gel capsules that it would fit in that would make it go down much easier!?!?

Should I tie off the "bulge"?? When i push on it yolk started to leak into another part and drains out!!! But the openin at the belly is already only the ssize of a pea!?!?
I'm so sorry to keep adding more comments but I just wanted to mention that the opening from the stomach to the bulge is only about the size of a pea so will it just close up and then the bulge will just dry up??
