Okay, earlier today I posted about my overly hormonal drake displaying too much aggressive excessive mating toward one of my hens. I was asking if there were any tips for calming him down. @Miss Lydia suggested cannabis based dog calming treats. Which led me to wonder about THC andCBD in...
@Miss Lydia I actually decided to create a second conversation on the topic of THC/CBD/Cannabis andducks over here https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/ducks-and-cannabis.1613203/
https://www.backyardchickens.com/search/31441838/?q=CBD+and+ducks&o=relevance I didn't read through all but might be something in this.
I give hemp chews to my new Pup he has anxiety about riding in his crate in the car it works wonders and it has helped with crate training in the house too.
From the Thailand study...
"No abnormal behaviour was observed in the chickens, Chompunut said: “At the level of intensity we gave them, it wouldn’t get the chickens high.”
The levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the plant’s psychoactive substance which makes people feel high, and...
I hadn't thought about that, I have meloxicam for my arthritic duck and could maybe give her some.
I did reach out to a company called NHV natural pet products and they were very helpful. They had a product with wonderful reviews for shrinking tumors in cats and dogs. But unfortunately it's not...
Thank you everybody for the good wishes. Belfast has received some high concentration CBD paste today. That was 8 hours ago. He's still kinda sleepy and definitely very relaxed... Might have overdone it a little :) but it's not wrong in his situation.
We're also having an extended summer, this...
Hi everyone just wanted to share my experience with my pekin duck and her seizures in hopes it may help someone else.
*Disclaimer I am not a vet*
My pekin is about 4 yrs old and has had seizures since 16 weeks, we suspect from genetic issue or trauma. We have found that stress triggers hers...
I don’t know but it seems something is upsetting her. We had a rat problem a few years back and they were bold enough to come out in the day. Didn’t seem to upset the ducks just me. I remember someone mentioning CBD for their duck. Maybe try something like that on a special treat and see if it...
As I've seen others on here say ... go with your gut. If you feel you should, then I would.
I'm praying mine are tucked in and safe and sound and I'm not going to open the doors. The winds hallowing something fierce! The camera sound of the wind literally sounds like what you hear on the TV news...
Poor wee Betty. It doesn't sound like an alarm call but it does sound like she is calling out for a buddy if a little hoarsely. Your suggestion that it is behavioral is likely correct, She started doing it for a real reason long forgotten and she just calls on and on now from habit.
It may...
I haven’t heard of using cbd or cdc stuff for chicken combs. I didn’t put anything on them though because I have read that sometimes it’s best not to. And thank you! I hope yours does too! I’m hoping to check on mine throughout the night. I have one who is missing feathers on her chin like are...
Whatever decision you make is the right decision. You are the only person that knows her, and your setup well enough to make an educated, and knowledgeable decision. Sounds good to me. You could try CBD oil for her to help ease any pain she might be having. You'll want to get CBD rather than...
Hello my duck was attacked on Monday. We took her to the vet. Got her antibiotics, pain and a cream to put on her. They wanted to do a surgery but very worried she wouldn't wake up. So we took the route of caring for her at home in our house. Since then she has gotten better during the day when...
Toward the end of last week, one of our two ducks suddenly started quacking incessantly for no reason that we can figure out. She’s not injured, we haven’t seen any predators around (not that there couldn’t be but we haven’t spotted any), we’re so good about making sure they have fresh water and...
Others on BYC seem to have used it, at least for ducks in the one thread I read. I'm not sure about the topical ointment mentioned. CBD can be used topically as well.
