    Sour crop

    It is such a "gut" punch. Thank you. Yes I use to be a Medical Technologist and worked in the lab so I'm very interested in learning more to provide adequate care in a crisis. Whether its euthanasia, pain relief, antibiotics or just peace and quiet isolation for healing.

    Sour crop

    She passed. Im sending her to Texas A&M for a necropsy because I need to know if that mass was a growth or water belly. I need to understand the look and feel in order to be more helpful to my other girls in the future. They also offer courses to understand and take better care of your flock...

    Sour crop

    So 2 days ago I noticed Chrissy isolating from the other girls. I picked her up and checked her out. Sour crop. I massaged the crop and she expelled alot. Crop emptied. I thought all was going to be ok. I brought her to my chicken hospital to restrict food and give her time to recover. She has...

    I thought chickens loved pumpkins?

    Mine too. But they eat pureed. Boojee girls I guess. I am baking many and pureeing it and freezing it to use or give as needed.

    My Chicken appears to be sick

    Thank you. Yes she was walking but wobbly. Thats why I removed her from the flock as she was isolating herself and I didn't want them to pick on her. The day I brought her in she was standing and the next morning could not almostdead weight. I took her out to the yard with her flock hoping...

    Lethargic hen, loss of appetite

    I can't help you. But used to be a Med Tech and occult bloods(human poo) were one of my tests I performed. Based on all your poo pictures I'd say the last one looks improved from the first picture. Good luck

    Sick Chicken - Need Help Please!

    Im no expert but she could have laid the egg and ate the shell or the shell broke inside her. I've read that Epsom salt soaks should help.

    My Chicken appears to be sick

    Thank you. She was a fluffy sweetie. I am once again devastated. Her crop and vent were fine. No visible injuries but today there was a slight rasp and beak open a bit. No labored breathing. I have 8 of my girls left. I probably won't continue my love of raising chickens after these 8. Its...

    My Chicken appears to be sick

    UPDATE: she passed. Im so confused. Ive had my girls 3yrs. I feel it was respiratory as she was making a faint sound when I picked her up today. She went quick. Yesterday was the signal something was off. Today she passed. Fat and the last picture I took of her feet the left one looked...

    My Chicken appears to be sick

    Yesterday I went to let my girls out to forage for the day. They all came out but one. I went back in coop and found one of my bard rocks laying behind the feed container. I gave fresh water and added some chick start. She wobbled to the water and drank then laid down again. I thought she hurt...

    Baby girl is so sick

    Thank you so much for the advice,care and concern. It was comforting to me and meant the world to me your caring nature for these fluffy babies. I was holding my breath and hoped she could pull through. She tried for 4days but I knew she was leaving me today. I just wasn't ready

    Baby girl is so sick

    Sadly my sweet Dorothy passed. I am crushed. The girls have a red schoolhouse in their yard I put there for them to hide since I have no trees for shelter. They'd sleep in there during the day or walk in and out of it. We are going to bury her beside the little house and put a white picket...

    Baby girl is so sick

    Actually she seemed better Thursday. Standing and eating. The past 2 days can't stand. Barely eating or drinking. Ive been giving her electrolytes and vitamin water by syringe. I look at her and just can't believe she's still with me. Not because she looks bad but just because she seems...
