    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...

    Baby girl is so sick

    Ive been feeding her eggs grit and her pellets. Today I gave her strawberries because she wouldn't eat her egg mixture. She needs protein but just giving to see if she was wanting to eat at all. She munches on mealy worms. Hubby went to get yogurt. Is it OK if I put neosporin over her eyelid?

    Baby girl is so sick

    Thank you. She was acting poorly a few days prior. I had been hand feeding her to make sure she was eating. She was still with all the girls in their yard eating and pecking around. I never noticed aggression at all. Im just heartbroken I didn't remove her but she wasn't isolating as if sick...

    Baby girl is so sick

    Yes. I believe she might have a intestinal parasite. I was beginning her treatment when all this happened now im trying to help her get over the trauma. I treat her scalp with neosporin. Her eye is completely closed and im not going to try and open it. I am hoping by putting neosporin on it in...

    Baby girl is so sick

    I checked on her every 2-3hrs all night and gave her electrolytes. I honestly did not see how she would survive the night. Came in at 630A to check on her. Eyes opened moved her head around and was tucked in a crouch position as opposed to the previously splayed out position and limp as a dish...

    Corn generates heat. I give corn and scratch only in winter I give frozen fruits and veggies (no corn) in summer. I put frozen peas in their water cups and frozen water bottles in their pools 2xs a day when it gets hot. They love it.

    3.5yr old Barred Rock staggering

    Thank you. She definitely doesn't have a impacted crop. I started the coconut yesterday. She INSISTED on being with her flock. She still runs with them but obviously staggering. I'm massaging it and it did go down but it's still dangly and squishy. I isolate her at night. She's not stable...

    3.5yr old Barred Rock staggering

    Yesterday morning when I opened the girls run for the day I noticed one of my girls was staggering around, falling over. I picked her up and inspected her. The only thing different was her crop was squishy and kind of hanging down. It had a golf ball maybe a bit bigger size ball still in crop...
