Shes still kicking! Poop finally went back to normal. Shes walking a little bit but still pretty immobile for the most part. She eats good, drinks good, ks always.very alert, but i do fear that something just isnt right. You can look in her eyes and tell that shes just...idk...something just...
So it's been 2 days of treating with corid. Her poo is still bright green, but still solid. She's definitely more alert and while it's still too painful to stand, shes been picking herself up and resting on her hocks, which she wasn't doing before. The greenish hue has left her face and there is...
Me too :'( she is definitely very weak now. No, she cannot stand. When she tries to adjust herself after pooping she cries out. I can't seem to find any trauma to her leg. Hubby said he caught it under the kennel, maybe he pulled on it and pulled a joint out of socket or something? She's got...
These pictures of her poo are exact on color. The others I sent didnt look right in the camera. I saw another post where you had told someone that green poop is because of being emaciated. She has been petite since a small chick. Never emaciated. Always full of energy and so so sassy!
I know...
So, the poop is so bright that it often stains the bedding bright green. As for her laying there, about a week ago my husband was moving their kennel and her foot got stuck under it. Even after it happened I couldn't find any obvious trauma, but she's been in too much pain to even move around...
They're about 14 weeks? Give or take. Should be getting really close to time to lay. They came from tractor supply. Despite how much she eats her crop stays small and more mushy than anything. They still are on unmedicated chick feed. We've also been giving her Greek yogurt, granola, and manuka...
Hey! So ive got a couple juvenile brahma hens - they are so sweet but I will NEVER get them again. I started with 3. One failed to thrive. Right after it died, another one started losing weight. She eats. She drinks. She's starting to get weak now. Her poop is solid but BRIGHT GREEN. I will post...
As soon as I got done posting I cut her feathers back there :/ the mkre I read about egg yolk peritonitis, the more I think that’s it simply because of the shell-less egg.
I guess i can still try to drain it. I already have all the stuff to do it. I just don’t want to cause anything bad to...
She has taken a turn for the worst. I feel like she’s actually dying with every breath she takes. So she’s pretty heavy on her back end. I lifted her tail to see her bulge is much bigger and it’s not hard but not super squishy either. She is putrid. Her poop is a neon green color . Last time I...
Gotcha. So last night she seemed to be doing better. I put her out with the others. This morning she wasn’t so great and remains in the house. She’s starting to act lethargic and listless. I’ve given her a broad spectrum antibiotic and 1/2 calcium tab.
I’m really believing that this has...
No one prepared me for how fluffy a chicken is once blow dried 😍
the bad news is I think I may see what’s wrong, and I really hope it’s me thats wrong.
Also, this stuff came out of her bum when I turned her over in her back to feel her belly.
I know it’d be rare, but I’m thinking possibly...
He isn’t the roughest I’ve seen but he does get excited. Their backs aren’t bald but they’re missing some feathers. I’m gonna bathe her now, will check back in a few.
She’s sitting on our back porch in the crate, don’t mind the mess in pics, we’ve not had a nice enough day yet to get all the trash cleaned up from winter!
I’m guessing this is the reason I didn’t feel an egg. There is no shell to it. Just membrane. No pieces anywhere. Also this poop is rancid. She still doesn’t want to be bothered. Not sure if she has another one in there or what. I know one day my husband told me that one of the hens had to have...
She just briefly stood up. It does seem as if she was favoring one leg but she didn’t stand long enough for me to be certain. She’s not happy in the crate. She’s wanting out badly. Should I let her go? I’m afraid the rooster won’t leave her alone though.
Her crop feels normal, her breath is fine. What a conundrum. I’m pretty worried about her as there is no way I can just say “it’s okay if she’s lame, she’s happy” because the rooster will give her so much hell.
Oh! She doesn’t want her back end touched. Like her lumbar region. There are no open wounds, and this morning when my husband let them out she was laying in the floor already. Everyone went to bed like normal last night. So if it’s an injury it occurred during the night. I just have a hard time...
