I am in utah. No mosquitoes now but wondering if I could have a slow moving pox going thru flock from last year?? Will get pics of other combs. Different roo had a crusty black growth on his wattles last fall into winter but I thought it was from a fight. Yes lots of b2 (and treated for lice bad...
Hi
I have a few sick chickens w various symptoms-could be multiple diseases or all connected.
A couple of my BCM’s are showing these growths around head.
Is it fowl pox?
Some other chickens have white and black spots on combs too but these girls in pic below are worst.
Also have a 8mos roo...
Hi
this is an older thread but I am having a chicken that is wheezing awfully. I am trying to figure out how to message you to see if you still have some danegaurd? i have baytril and vet rx also. thank you laura
did your chick make it? crazy cuz im holding mine that way too to try and soothe her and get her to stay still and warm. can't tell if mine has any intestines protruding or not. yolk sac is large and can't see inside properly
oh right. i didn't give much backstory. i was typing on my phone. i usually candle and mess with the eggs too much. this time i tried going hands off. i used a silkie broody and only candled at day 10. It looked like it was drawing down too fast. We live in the desert and it is especially dry...
Chick pipped and zipped perfectly. Hatched alone middle of the night. Yolk is completely outside body. She’s been running around happy and strong. She broke the yolk. It’s not smelly or odd color. Pushing it back in seems like a lot to get in there???? Doesn’t look to be absorbing on its own...
Hi
Chick was right on time and perfect pip zip unassisted. Very strong chick
Completely unabsorbed yolk. I tried putting her in a cup but she is so strong she just struggles to jump out. She ruptured the yolk very tiny hole but leaked almost all out. I’ve been watching closely it’s been about 6...
i have a broody who "happened" to start setting a couple of weeks before I have some new chicks scheduled to arrive. But they will be about +/- 4 days off of coinciding exactly perfectly. Should I take her eggs from her when baby chicks arrive and sneak them in, then try to add her own babies in...
I'm trying to understand what went wrong with my last hatch. I had 3 of 8 make it after lockdown. One drowned and two died in the shell and appear to be too dry. It seems the inner membranes were all tough and leathery compared to my first hatch. Some of these chicks had some yellow gluey...
oh man she was doing so well. eating and drinking and soaking up some sun. but she started pooping a bunch of white stuff and slowly stopped eating and drinking and now is lethargic. any advice?
