This topic has come up many times, so here are some links to other threads.

I recently took a First Aid/CPR class and the instructor required us to put together an emergency manual and a first aid kit. I was thinking it would be a good idea to have something like that for chickens (and other fowl). I of course intend on doing my own research, but here are a few...

I am making an emergency first aid kit to have on hand for my chickens. I have been reading about "Blu-Kote" spray and thinking about adding it to my kit. What do you all think? Would you recommend Blu-Kote for wounds or is there something better? It just doesn't seem very safe; there are a lot...

I've decided to make a chicken emergency kit / first aid kit. I've got stuff for wounds, basic illnesses, bumblefoot, and coccidiosis. Please tell me if I'm missing anything important! - FlockLeader Recover 911 - Neosporin - Bandage Wrap - Butterfly Bandages - VetRX - Vetericyn Spray - Wonder...

Hey BYC Peeps! If you had to do it again, what you put in your Chicken First Aid Kit? Thanks everyone!

...never really know how things will turn out. I’ve had such good luck using calcium plus D3 for one of my chickens who lays soft eggs once in a while and has wound up egg bound. I truly think it saved her life one day when she had two eggs stuck. It’s a must for everyone’s chicken first aid kit!

What do you have on hand? When we get sick, I try to save back a pill or two for the chicken first aid kit. It matters what kind of bacteria is involved in an infection. But the antibiotic with the broadest action that is commonly prescribed to people and you might have laying around is...

I have aquamox

This is what is coming out of my favorite hen today😲. I guess I need some help. She never just lets me pick her up, but today was completely different. I have Corid in my first aid kit for the chickens, but is that what I should use? I don’t have anything else 😕. Should I use a dewormer? What...

DEFINITELY add blu kote, I’ve used it for everything from chickens to horses, a great addition to the first aid kit

Don't add anything but day old chicks . Other peoples chickens can spread diseases

oh yes that’s right! i actually have some birdie booties in my first aid kit. I got some for chickens, some for ducks and some geese too . The duck ones were too big for my fawn and white runner though. frankie is small right now and his little foot is pretty tiny. I guess I could measure it...

Thank you so very much @ChicoryBlue !! She lay today a nice big egg! Yes, I will look into the chicken first aid kit. I already have some stuff to clean wounds because I had bumble foot on some of my hens! Good post! Thanks again! CC

Yes, these ones are totally okay. I recommend everyone has them in their chicken first aid kit; they’ve saved my egg bound hen for sure. I’ve recently read when they’ve come in handy for vent prolapses, too. I personally do only supplement (the vitamin) if there is an instance of egg binding or...

Hi Everyone!! As a fairly new chicken mom I’ve come across various bumps along the road. As these bump come along I’ve acquired a small kit of remedies (tylan, metronidazole, Vetrx) but I’m wondering what are your must haves to keep on hand at all times in case of an emergency? I’m trying to...

Will do on the thermometer! No xray was done. But you can hear a crinkling sound, which she stated was arthritis. ...thoughts?

No, Emmylou Harris lol. All our chickens are named after country singers 🤣

...egg so I can drip wax over the crack ASAP. Ointment for an open umbilical cord. That sort of thing. Do you keep a sort of "chicken first aid kit"? What do you keep in it? What are some things you'd recommend a beginner or anyone with chickens always have on hand to address illness, injuries...
