    Vinegar flush for egg yolk peritonitis?

    Awesome!!!, she's so lucky to have a owner like you!, makes me happy that she's going to be okay now...and yes it can be pricey but it's well worth it and you should at least get six months from this implant. Let me know if you have anymore questions in the future and take care!!!

    Diarreha, lethargic and warm

    Wow never knew all this, was just trying to be honest with the OP looking for help...I felt a vet whould be best in there birds case just because from the symptoms it seamed like the bird was in a really bad way and needed emergency care...I keep forgeting that not everyone can find a good vet...

    Any ideas on what might be wrong?

    There is no vet?, or are you not able to provide vet care?, my opinion is thease birds need medical attention and if you are unable to provide it, that's understandable but they should be allowed to suffer either so humanley putting them down whould be the respectfull thing to do

    Diarreha, lethargic and warm

    Just did a search for "avian exotics vets in the USA" the list was enormous for lack of better words lol, why are people on this forum claiming lack of vets in the USA that could help birds?

    Diarreha, lethargic and warm

    You are all just guessing...and so was I...never told anyone to start giving antibiotics!!, just had a bird of my own with similar symptoms and she had a bacterial infection was tested (blood test) and given the RIGHT antibiotic. I'm only letting the owner know this because they may be very...

    Diarreha, lethargic and warm

    It is of course up to "the owner" what they can do for there bird but from what's being described it sounds like this bird is VERY sick and needs imediate attention!, if the owner is able to do so this bird really needs a vet or it may not make it, just my honest opinion...

    Diarreha, lethargic and warm

    No of course antibiotic won't help with a virus but this bird may be running a fever wich indicates a secondary bacterial infection as a result of the virus, which is very common and fever indicates infection. I had a bird with this exact diagnosis buy a vet so just relaying my experience

    Diarreha, lethargic and warm

    Sounds like she's running a fever due to some sort of infection, if she were mine I'd call up my vet and talk about getting her some antibiotics.

    please not again.

    A birds laying cycle is regulated mostly buy hormones and daylight is a factor but hormones are extreamly powerfull and it's almost impossible to stop her from laying in the way that your trying to do, it could prove fatal because although her prolapse is staying "in" that dosent mean it's not...

    please not again.

    Just leaves?, she still needs nutrition. Are you trying to stop her from laying?. In my opinion this isint a good idea because it could make her very weak and sickly...she needs to eat enough to sustain herself, it's really really hard to stop a hen from laying and this may just make her problem...

    please not again.

    There's no way of knowing for sure...but yes it's likley,especially since she's had what looks like a prolapsed vent. What breed is she?, it looks as though she could be a RIR or a sexlink? ,if so I doubt she'll stop laying long enough for her vent to heal and regain it muscle tone, so I'd...

    Salpingitis?

    She may be able to be saved depending on what sort of reproductive issue she's got and weather or not it's in the advanced stages but you do need a vet, idealy avian exotics and depending on the issue she may be able to have an implant placed inside her (under her skin) like microchipping a dog...

    Salpingitis?

    It's possible she could have a tumor but short of actually (feeling) one only an ultrasound could diagnose this. I'm going to be honest with you hear, your hen needs a vet, antibiotics, pain medication like metacam and to be evaluated to figure out what sort of laying disorder she's got...you...

    Sick Rhode Island Red hen

    This dosent look like any sort of (normal) egg...could you possibly post a picture of another egg she's laid so I can compare?, it's hard to make out but it sort of looks like a lash egg, either way from her posture and sickly looking picture I whould bet she's got some kind of reproductive...

    Vinegar flush for egg yolk peritonitis?

    Probably not the best idea because you could potentially cause injury...if this is a repeat incidence (peritonitis) then from personal experience it only gets worse so ideally if this were my bird and I considered her a pet I'd go ahead and get her into a vet and see if she'd be able to get a...

    Dripping vent

    Maybe consider taking the one hen with the dripping vent to the vet?, if they could test her fluid you whould be able to get a clear answer this way? , it's possible she may have an infection...reproductive possibly?, is she laying at all?
