    Chick seemed to have died during hatching

    Keeping my Rooster from Crowing

    Help! Egg-bound chicken!!

    You must follow your antibiotics requirements (kg of bird weight) to (mg of antibiotic) very carefully or risk damage to the stomach and gut. Also if your chicken pulls through. Give her some probiotics. Yogurt will do. It will help To replenish her bacterial flora.

    Help! Egg-bound chicken!!

    Ok. Be careful administering antibiotics. If you can. Clean the wound with water or salt mixed with water, remove all the yellow puss or cheesey stuff. Dry with a paper towel.

    //Help// Egg Peritonitis? Or Egg bound?

    Sounds like mangos might be the culprit here. Although I recommend calcium. Oyster shells, human calcium tablets, or liquid calcium might to the trick. Your chickens sound like they have a calcium deficiency.
