    Chicks are making rattling noise! Help! Is this bad?

    Mine were fine once I moved them outdoors where they had more ventilation. Good luck to you!

    Mixing birds vaccinated for Mareks with unvaccinated birds

    Does anyone have experience with a mixed flock of birds vaccinated for Mareks with birds unvaccinated? What happened to the birds weekly/monthly/over the years living together? Thanks!

    Vaccinating for Mariks at home

    So it has been 6 months…did you still have deaths here & there in your flock after vaccinating already exposed birds?

    Ameraucana rooster collapsed suddenly

    No permithrin is a chemical it comes in dust or spray. It kills mites & lice.

    Ameraucana rooster collapsed suddenly

    Thanks! The hens all ended up fine. No issues thank God. I think it was the permithrin dust I put in their coop that week that killed the rooster. I went a little overboard with dusting the coop & run. He must have inhaled it & the hen that was sneezing inhaled some but not enough to kill her ...

    Chick with chronic eye infection

    Good to know. I suspect that bedding plays into this one’s eye infection also somewhat. She seems to do better when not in coop so as she gets older & has more freedom to free range hopefully she’ll get over it. It’s a pain to treat every day.

    Chick with chronic eye infection

    Thanks will give it a try. I also switched to a stronger antibiotic eye drop rather than the ointment so hopefully it helps.

    Chick with chronic eye infection

    I have a 2 month old showgirl silkie that has had an eye infection off and on since it was 3 days old. I hatched it with 15 other chicks and first noticed when it was 3 days old that it’s right eye was goopy and crusted closed. At that time I began treating it with terramycin for about a week...

    1 week old chick had solid masses in lower abdomen

    Mine still has it, it’s huge & hangs down but she acts fine , runs around & eats, drinks normally so it obviously doesn’t bother her. Although it’s obvious & huge she is least of my worries since im dealing with coccidia in my younger chicks right now. Ugh 😑

    Huge Mass on abdomen of a 3 week old chick!?

    Thank you! Around here an avian vet would charge over $100 just to see her & biopsy. Just not worth it for one chick to be frank. Hopefully it dissolves over time. So weird. I wonder if maybe she had a twin & the twin remains are what I’m seeing inside her? 🤷‍♀️ Either that or a tumor if some...

    Huge Mass on abdomen of a 3 week old chick!?

    I do wish I knew what it was though which is why I post on here to get other’s experiences.

    Huge Mass on abdomen of a 3 week old chick!?

    The chick is not in pain currently. It runs, plays & eats drinks. I’m an experienced chicken owner with many chickens & watch my chickens daily so notice small signs typically way before the average eye since chickens tend to hide their symptoms. If she was in pain I’d cull.

    Huge Mass on abdomen of a 3 week old chick!?

    Yes I watch her every day & she acts fine so I’ll let it run it’s course for now & hope whatever it is resolves. They will be a month old tomorrow.

    Definitely not normal!

    Huge Mass on abdomen of a 3 week old chick!?

    Thanks. It’s the size of a ping pong ball, approaching the size of a golf ball. Still acts fine though so we’ll see. None of the others have it.

    Huge Mass on abdomen of a 3 week old chick!?

    I still want to know what it is & if anyone else has experience with this. It’s huge & hard to the touch, lumps like tumors or something. But tumors on a baby chick? So weird. The other reason I want to know is because if it’s something contagious then I won’t integrate with the rest of my flock...

    Huge Mass on abdomen of a 3 week old chick!?

    This 3 week old chick has a huge solid mass on its abdomen that seems to be growing bigger. It wasn’t born with it…When I feel it, it feels lumpy like tumors…but it’s a baby chick!! It has had the mass for over a week & the chick acts completely healthy running around eating & drinking with the...
