    Help! Is this fowl pox??? What do I do??

    I've been searching through the site to find pictures, but I can't seem to find something like this on black skinned chickens. I assumed it was a bite but now I'm wondering about fowl pox. Does this look like anything other silkie owners have had?

    Slipped tendon? Not splayed leg? Help please 🙏

    Unfortunately the chick did not survive. I believe it was due to aspiration not the leg. But, I also feel I took to long to figure out how to help it.

    Egg bound or parasite?

    Thank you. Do you think that poop picture looks suspicious? I had thought about adding oregano in case it was a little vent gleet. They all get probiotics, but sometimes I give them an oregano treat. But I can avoid that. What would you use for vent gleet if it's a possibility? I wonder...

    Egg bound or parasite?

    That's a good thought. I did switch beddings, but they have used it before. I gave her a warm soak in Epsom salt, a warm blow dry and a soft bed in the house. She seemed to be back to normal this morning and wanted to go out with the others. I'll see if she has an issue again after spending...

    Slipped tendon? Not splayed leg? Help please 🙏

    So I think the issue is a slipped tendon on the left leg, not a splayed leg. I have wrapped it's leg and put it in a chick chair. I'm feeling very discouraged because it is now over 24 hours. So I may have spent all this time making the problem worse. I've been sitting dreading the final...

    Slipped tendon? Not splayed leg? Help please 🙏

    I tried Band-Aids but they kept coming off because of all of the fuzz. (Or the band aid/ me just stink at doing this). So I switched to bandage tape. I did the toes in the blue tape because I followed the instructions on here that said to use masking tape. This is painters tape that is suppose...

    Help! with Assisted hatch inner membrane

    sShe was externally piped. I looked inside and she was paper dry, cold and peeping. I have her in a cup with paper towels. I've splinted the toes, feet and legs to put them in the correct position and I'm letting her strengthen her legs by trying to get up out of the glass. Any other...
