    Turkey hen w sour crop

    I believe my turkey hen Kaisellin might be suffering from sour crop, her crop has been slightly full and squishy the past few days and she has a foul oder from her mouth. I also noticed some green/teal sort of droppings which are concerning. I'd like advice on how to treat her as it's my first...

    Cancer or internal laying?

    My 6 year-old barred rock hen was acting strangely about 5 days ago, (not wanting to go into the coop w everyone for mealtime) I've had issues w this hen in the past so I waited until she roosted to check her abdomen. Just as I had feared, she had a swollen and slightly squishy abdomen. I...

    Looking for broad spectrum antibiotics/advice

    Hi all, recently, my 6 year old barred rock Bandi has fallen ill. She's lethargic, though not excessively. She's just been sleeping more and her face is very pale at times. I went through the basics, made sure she was parasite free (both internal and external) I've kept an eye out for...

    Totally bare wing and tail feathers

    I noticed this awhile ago but figured they’d molt out or something, my ducks have totally bare wing and tail feathers! Is this a deficiency or mites or something? Not all of them have it. I’ve also noticed they aren’t fully waterproof so I’m definitely thinking deficiency, but what kind? For...

    Turkey poult pooping blood (Please help)

    I have a 4-week-old standard bronze turkey poult who I've noticed has blood in his stool consistently. Not every poo, but I've noticed blood in his poo in at least 1-2 droppings each day. He's a bit lathargic, and by a bit I mean barely noticeable, but other then that he seems fine. I've given...

    Sickly poult (VERY WORRIED!!)

    I have a three week old standard bronze poult who I've been overly obsessive and worried over recent. He's completely alone so he spends all his time with me apart from when I sit with him so he can eat and drink. (About 30 minutes every hour.) The people I bought him from were extremely...

    Will turkey Tom's hurt chickens? (Hens)

    I currently have a 2 week old standard bronze poult. He is the CUTEST thing but I noticed when I opened the door to his sun room he STRUTTED into my house. He usually runs right inside and up into my hands but he had to put on a little show first I guess 😅 I've heard/seen that this could be a...

    Barred rock in pain

    My 5 year old barred rock seems to be having some trouble recently. She’s a big girl and I suspect a rooster or a fall perhaps injured her awhile back. Maybe even a birth deformity? She always has a pretty obvious limp and walks slow and a little funny but other then that she is perfect and very...

    !EMERGENCY! Rooster with swollen face and foul smell

    Let me start this off by saying, this is the third time I've had a bird with this over salivating problem. First time back in September of 2020, she ended up passing December 6th, she was treated with de-wormer, antibiotics, and some anti-fugal remedies. (she died before I was able to get any...

    Niacin for geese

    I have a hurricane coming our way and plan to have the geese & ducks cooped for the duration of the storm. Since they won't have any access to grass/natural niacin I plan to supplement for their safety, the question is, will human grade niacin be okay for them? I bought a bottle of regular...

    Wry neck duckling

    I recently took in a wry neck duckling (not from my flock) I’m planning to treat him w Poly vi sol, vitamin E capsules and selenium tablets. The question is, if this is a head injury and not a deficiency, will it harm him? He seems to have gotten worse today, but apart from that he’s doing great...

    Goose deficiencies

    I have two male (four years) brown chinese geese who've been losing feathers on their face. My first male, Yoshi, (whose only about 2-3 years) is losing feathers right under his eye/cheekbone. His late father did this as well, and I never really figured it out. My other older male, Big Goose, is...
