This morning her crop still full and squishy which I figure is the acv I gave her Yesterday. It has not gone down. Her vent area is also very red and wet looking compared to other days. do I need to empty her crop before I feed her the yogurt?

Thanks everyone. No impacted crop. Her crop is squishy like a bag of water and the liquid that I have gotten out of her crop is a light olive color and FOUL smelling. Earlier today when I felt her crop it was squishy again so I purged her and gave her the 5 cc of ace. I just checked her and her...

My little hen has sour crop. I have given her apple cider vinegar (I used a full syringe 5 ml) on maybe 5 occasions, otc cream for yeast infections, several syringes of fresh egg and water (because she hasn’t eaten in about 9 days), and plain yogurt ( no interes). Yesterday I gave her some food...

I‘ve recently lost 2 chickens, both times from 2:00-4:00 in the afternoon. My first chicken, I originally found nothing but some tail feathers. Not a drop of blood, carcass, or body part to be found. Yesterday, another chicken disappeared. I found a few feathers from her head. Upon...

With a heavy heart, we went ahead and put poor Bubbles down. It was the best thing for him.

He has let me clean his wound and I don’t ,think the actual wing is broken since he is holding it to his side. I know his backside will heal, but I don’t know if the wing will since is is just bone. Muscle, tendons, ligaments are all gone one the top side of the wing. Right now a vet is not an...

just found a giant hawk on one of my chickens. All body parts are in tact however one of his wings have been eaten done to the bone. A large portion. The little fellow is still alive and can walk, I don’t know if his wing is broken or what I just don’t know what to do other than to clean him...

I have 3 month sultan, female I think. We thought she broke one of her legs and removed her from her friends and brought her indoors to recover. Gave her warm water epsom salt soaks and checked her leg everyday. She did not seem to be bothered with me moving it around. Then one day her leg was...

Soak her in some epsom salt water then, pat her dry and apply vetericyne spray to her. Her as clean and dry as possible. It’s awful having to deal with but some do survive. Mine did. I soaked mine everyday for about a week, twice in the beginning.

He was actually raised inside and when he got older he had to move out side. then about 2 summers ago he had fly strike and I nursed him back to health and once again he came indoors until he healed. He gets a bath when he has to come indoors! He actually likes his bath and will just sit in the...

He is better, much better! have given him 2 doses of Tylan, he took a little bit of water on his own. Still shows no interest in food. Have tried eggs, applesauce, crackers...not even a nibble. He is holding his head up, his feet and comb are now warm where as they were cold yesterday. rosebud...

Thanks everyone! I will go get the Tylan 50. Was not sure on dosage and no one was able to help me. After cleaning his eye and applying ointment, soaking his foot and applying veteracyin to his foot he is better and holding his little head up. His foot is not as swollen but not weight bearing...

My little boy is sick and I’m not sure what’s going on. 1. looks like a few of my girls have been picking on him. The top part of one foot is swollen and it looks like his foot has bled in spots. I applied peroxide to confirm dried blood spots. It looks like the scales on his foot are missing...

As nasty as it will be...you will need to remove the maggot with a pair of tweezers or similar object. Wrap him in a towel before starting this. Put maggots in alcohol, water, etc. once maggots are removed, bath the area or or you might need to bath him entirely. The area will also need to be...

I have a 2 yr old Rhode Island Red and sHehas never layed eggs. She has always been very active, a fast runner, and not very friendly. Lately she has slowed down, stays to herself, has an extended abdomin that hangs low and she waddles when she walks. She will let me walk up, pick her up, and...

we bought this little buff looking chick and was assured it was a new hampshire red. She sure doesn’t look like it! Now I’m thinking a red crested polish, but I’m not sure. I can’t really can’t find any pictures that match. She is right at 3 weeks old. She is starting to get red wattles and red...

Thanks!

After reading the link, the hole is right by the little bump. So what happens if I have cleaned the "wax" out, cleaned it with peroxide and vetryacin? I guess I should leave it alone! Thanks for the info!

Tonight I was taking care of my little girl who jumped out of her coop a week or so ago. She is doing well but still cannot walk. I have no idea what the problem is. ANyway, I was checking her all over thinking I might have missed something and I did. Near the very tip of her tail-topside, I...

Just an update to the original post...my girl made it! A long recovery! She was pampered and a bit spoiled. Her skin and all of her feathers grew back. I wasn't sure if some of them would, especially where her serious injuries were. Amazing! She has her own luxury suite and seems to be satisfied.
