    Chronic Sneezing

    I got the video but could not post it to you tube. She is still sneezing but does not sound in as much distress. I won’t put her down yet. She acts fine otherwise. I just want her happy and comfortable.

    Chronic Sneezing

    I have a sweet Marin cross. She has had a sneeze for over a year. This weekend her sneeze started being followed by a very loud cry/crow sound and her chest gurgles. She still eats drinks roosts. I’m not sure how to help her. Antibiotic? Put her down? Any suggestions are appreciated. Diane

    Cornish hens dilemma

    Hi. I bought 2 Cornish chicks about 4 months ago. They were adorable and I thought I would add them to my flock. They have outgrown the other chicks and their breasts are so large they barely walk. They lie down, eat and drink and poop on themselves. FYI they have lots of room to move around but...

    Sick hen

    I’m watching the sister. If she dies I will send her for an autopsy. It’s odd that the sisters got sick and no one else, yet. I’ve had all of them for at least 5 years. Thank you for the feedback. I will post her status and findings.

    Sick hen

    I had already buried the one who died. Her sister is still alive. I could take her to a vet.

    Sick hen

    Now her sister has the same thing. Noticed gurgling tonight. If I hold her I can feel it in her chest. How would I find a state vet in Texas? Near San Antonio.

    Sick hen

    My Rhode Island Red gurgles when she is breathing. It’s coming from her chest I think. Is there anything to do for this? She is losing weight and comb is lying to side. Any antibiotics?

    Review by '' on item 'Jersey Giant'

    We have a really sweet hen. I'd consider her to be a pet. She's a year old now and doesn't lay an egg very often. She is also the same size as our other hens. My husband laughs at the name Jersey "Giant". I like her though. She will even get into the van if the door is open so we have to keep an...

    sick sex linked hen

    I think I figured it out. I'm betting on liver failure which caused ascites. I doubt I could have helped her.

    sick sex linked hen

    I wanted to check on my diagnosis of our hen. She was 5 yrs old and my favorite hen. I had to put her sister down 1 yr ago with egg yolk peritonitis and she had a softball sized (no kidding) hardened mass of egg yolk in her abdomen. Chubby, this hen, started with a swollen water balloon feeling...

    Egg bound

    I just lost a girl this morning. She was sick last year so I wormed and treated everyone and she got better. She's been laying thin shelled eggs but looked and acted ok. Very tame, likes to be petted. But this morning, she could not get up. I felt her abdomen and it was hard. Did a warm bath and...

    sick chick drags tail and falls to side

    Am not sure what an egg feels like when it's stuck in the chicken. I thought maybe I felt something so gave her a warm bath with baby shampoo (she had dried stool on tail feathers- maybe from not being able to get up vs maybe loose stool), a blow dry, and snuggle time in towels. No egg came out...
