    Fowl pox?

    Hi guys, does this look like fowl pox to you? this rooster was walking around a shopping center parking lot and I rescued him this morning. He’s eating and drinking and walking but one eye is swollen up shut and he has bumps all over. He’s separated from the flock completely to prevent...

    Puffy hen

    Hi there, One of our hens started making this awful noise a few days ago (like she’s very irritable) at random moments. Last night she slept in the nesting box. I went out this morning to check on her and she’s extremely puffy. I checked her vent and don’t see any hints of an egg bound. Is...

    Escape artist - clip wings?

    One of our 7 month old pullets, Sadie, has decided to start jumping over the fence in the backyard so she can go exploring in the woods. Usually, they’ll spend their mornings in the coop/run and then I’ll move them out to a poultry cage in the backyard once everyone has laid and then complete...

    Red stringy poop?

    The sulfa powder came this morning. Phew! The flock has been on Corid and just now got some of the sulfa antibiotic. The two sick girls seem to be perking up a little. Still not eating their usual food/pellets. The two did eat some corn that I put out though. I’m praying this helps turn them...

    Red stringy poop?

    The feed store we went to yesterday only had the liquid safe-guard goat dewormer and they said a lot of people use the liquid for chickens but just change the ratio for chickens. I just went by tractor supply a few minutes ago to see if they had an sulfa antibiotic but they did not. However, I...

    Red stringy poop?

    And more info… the sulfa powder will be here tomorrow but we’re worried about it spreading today to the others and possibly losing the other two before the medicine gets here. Do you know if this is sold at stores VS. Online?

    Red stringy poop?

    More info/clarification: The whole flock is being treated with the same water but I’m giving the two lethargic pullets water with a syringe to ensure they’re getting it.

    Red stringy poop?

    Hi, I’m hoping I can get y’all’s thoughts on something. Unfortunately, our Easter Egger pullet passed away. We have two more pullets that are lethargic and not acting right. I’ve been putting safe guard and Corid in their water since yesterday afternoon. I’ve been giving water to the two that...

    Red stringy poop?

    I ordered the sulfa powder and it should be here in a few days and picked up some Corid this morning. I’m having a hard time figuring out which safe-guard product to get. Can you please send me a link of what you’d recommend? I’ve seen them for equine, goats, cattle but not chickens. Thank you...

    Red stringy poop?

    Good idea. I will go ahead and treat them for worms as well. Thank you so much. This is my first sick chicken so it’s nice to know I can come out here and get help fast. Have a great evening!!

    Red stringy poop?

    I apologize ahead of time for the gross picture. It just happened in the moment and hands were sanitized immediately after! One of my Easter egger pullets was acting “off” tonight and went to go roost for bed earlier than any of the others which isn’t like her at all. I just saw this hanging...

    English heatwave

    Here are a few things I do during the hot summer days: - provide chilled foods such as watermelon or frozen blueberries - keep fresh water available at all times (I also put ice in their water throughout the day to keep it cool) - wet the ground in their run so they can keep their feet cool -...
