    How can I help my rooster with pendulous and potential sour crop?

    Hi all, we adopted our rooster a few years ago from someone who was unable to care for him with his crop condition. He has a severe pendulous crop and at the time had a case of sour crop.

    Abnormal comb?

    Hey guys, this is more of a general question because I'm curious. We found this sweet hen wandering around late the other evening and are keeping her safe while we look for her home. I noticed her comb was very flat though and that stood out to me. Any ideas as to what's going on here? I believe...

    My girl went in for a spay this morning...

    I've been a mess for the last week. Winnie is our special gal and she's had egg laying issues her whole 1 year of egg laying life. Previously when she was eggbound, the vet could help with the egg aspiration and extraction. However, this last egg that was found stuck about 3 weeks ago was the...
