Is this canker? Smelly, cheesy crud came out of the inside of her mouth. I believe the black you are looking at is dirt & dried blood. Swelling came down a lot after pus removal. Should I swab with iodine inside her mouth? Treat with fish zole? How much? Thank you for your help.
Missy1971. I know. lol I watched that darn thing 3 times. Couldn't figure out how they did that. It looked the size of an emu. I would not have chickens if they were that big. Ha ha
I agree. Today she looked better. I put Vaseline on bottoms of toes
Ivory kind of hops & flaps her wings. Maybe she will figure it out. Started her on petmed 4 in 1. Hoping to get her strong enough to kick whatever this is.
Yes DylansMom. The other 2 seem just fine. No crusty scabs. Feet r fine. I think if it was contagious all 3 would of had it. Toes look to me like they were born that way. I guess I missed it as they were up higher than I could see well. Until I put them out in bigger pen. I'm heading out in a...
DylansMom. Thanks for your help. I have not seen anything on any of the peas. No itching either. I did soak Ivory today. It has been 107 here today. Did not put mineral oil on legs yet. Was wondering about Vaseline instead. May soften them up some. Helps mine when dry & sore? Face has not gotten...
A friend hatched 2 of the 3 from an abandoned wild nest. They were raised in a LARGE rabbit/guinea pig cage. I kept them in same cage for 1 week while building platform to keep them off the ground.They are now in a temporary 6x6 ft chain link pen covered in 1/2 in hardware cloth. Same for the...
Casportpony I have had them 2 1/2 weeks. I've been soaking feet for the last 3 days. Looking cleaner but not great. Only noticed 1 bad toe when I first got them. But really didn't check as nothing was mentioned from previous owner. I was told they were thriving & healthy. I'm finding out not so...
I have been soaking her the last 2 nights as I wasn't sure what was poop & what was feet. I'll post better pictures soon. Her back toes don't go back. I'm afraid she will never walk/perch correctly. Really want to give her a chance
Ps I am giving electrolytes, vitamins & probiotics in water. Just not sure how much she is getting. It's 100 degrees here lately. Should I move her back inside?
Thank you. These birds were raised indoors until about a week ago. This started before I moved them outdoors. I never saw any bumps or nodules. Just started as little scabs around beak then eyes.
Ivory feet are so messed up. Her toes are mostly deformed. I've been soaking her feet & bottom in...
