    Tapeworm?

    Gosh the drama never seems to end in chicken keeping life 😅. I have a hen who's been hanging out in the nesting boxes, looking rough with feathers. Today I see this hanging from her vent. Looks like a huge tapeworm to me! Please let me know your thoughts. We dewormed the flock in the winter.

    Original thought 2 days ago was dry fowl pox with the eye and wattle spots. Now I'm thinking respiratory. Her other eye is watery. No coughing, sneezing or nasal discharge, but she's making a lot of noise breathing. No mouth lesions that i can see. I'll attach photo and video from this...

    Dry pox? Need opinions please

    Hello, Noticed my wyandotte hunched down, and saw her eye closed. Brought her in, and it looks like maybe some dry pox got on her eyelid and wattles. I've treated her so far with opthalmic gel for the irritation, and terramycin eye ointment. Any other suggestions?

    Diarrhea with green pieces

    Hello all. We've had a brutal heat wave in TX.. so many days in 100 degree weather. Noticed one hen struggling. Have brought her inside, where she is eating and drinking, but diarrhea has a lot of green matter. Looking for any words of wisdom, or if it's just the heart stress.
