No, I didn't. It seems that there were some things about coryza when I investigated it that didn't fit what was happening with her. However, I will take another look at it and ask the vet.

The vet said she had/has a severe infection. She put her on a topical ointment that goes into her eye area called Muricin. Also at the same time gave her an oral antibiotic of Tylan powder. Both were 2x a day. That was month 4 of treatment. It got better. The infection cleared up nicely. I put...

Forgot to mention that none of the other chickens have it. It's only on one side of her face. No sneezing, coughing or other symptoms.

I'm on the site today because I have this very same thing going on with one of my hens right now. So frustrated with the whole situation. When it first started I thought it was a simple eye infection so I started treating her with Baytril. After a month of that, it didn't help. The eye was...

I was just recently taken by a scammer while trying to find a snowy call pair. He contacted me saying he had a pair and a drake to sell. I sent the money via check after talking to him on the phone a few times and guess what? No birds. Anyway, that's being investigated right now. However, I am...

I've tried putting this duckling in water, but it's little legs just flail out the back and it can't really swim because it can't get the legs underneath it.

LilChick, Can you tell me more about the bandaid hobbles? Or send a pic or something that would give me a better idea of how to do that? It's little feet are curled up also. I took 2 tiny pieces of cardboard, put them under it's feet and wrapped all of that with a tiny strip of vetwrap. That...

Hi! I'm really sorry to hear about your loss. I have 20 chickens and 2 ducks and I've never lost one to a predator yet. I will post a pic of my pen tomorrow. I use livestock wire. It's horizontal rectangular wire (heavy duty) with about a foot of chicken wire around the bottom on the outside of...

Good thing to know! Thanks so much! The babies are at least eating good. I'll get a pic posted on here as soon as I can. This is the sort of situation that makes me really thankful that I work in a 1-girl office with a really understanding boss!

Gosh, I would LOVE to hear from anyone with special needs ducks so I can start thinking about my options. As far as diet, wouldn't it affect all of the eggs tho? Why just one or two? I don't supplement with anything. Because they run around with the chickens, that's difficult. They forage in...

You could try the guitar pick again (or a piece of cardboard). Wrap the foot and UP the leg. That might help it stay on. Maybe use Vetwrap. Just be careful of the tightness. That stuff can be deceiving because it's stretchy. Good Luck!

I figured it out! Thanks for your help!

Hi! This is my first post on here. I'm hoping someone can help. I have a hen and drake Call duck pair. I've had them for 2 1/2 years now. Last year Mama laid her 1st clutch of eggs. This year, her second. They were 6 months old when I got them. She must be a happy hen because, despite what I've...

How do I repost this in the duck section?

Hi! I'm looking for a juvenile pair of snowy call ducks. Can anyone direct me to someone that might have them? I tried eFowl.com, but they don't sex them, they just send them as a straight run. That won't work for me. If anyone can help, I'd greatly appreciate it. I live in Chino Valley...
