    chicks too hot..already lost one

    Maybe try some cold watermelon for them to nibble on in the afternoon. Also, you can try the watermisters that Walmart sells. I read that scratch raises their body heat ( Ian not sure if thats right) but don't chance it. I live in Texas so I understand the heat issue.

    bad dog

    Dog bites carry alot of germs so make sure you flush the wounds out with a saline solution. Just like Hankshens said put on some antibitotic med , neosporin is fine but not the kind with pain relief. ( I read that here somewhere). Put her in a quiet space , she is probally really stressed ...

    How do I get her eye open?

    well it may sound strange but I had a bantam hen with a eye infection, and I read that coffee drops in the eye helps. Now I am not sure it really did because I got the Terramycin for the infection but....she did like it when I soaked a q-tip in warm coffee and just rubbed under her eye (like a...

    Neighbors dog just attacked (GRAPHIC PIC)

    OUCH!!! You will want to flush the wound with a saline solution and maybe put some neosporine on it. Put her in a quiet place for her to relax in and offer food and water. I like to offer scrambled egg , they love it and it has alot of protein in it. Then time to talk to the neighbor. Good...

    HELP!!! Two of my chickens were attacked by dogs!! PICS ADDED!!

    It looks like she is healing really good. Maybe you could give some poly-visol vitamins ( no iron) 3 drops in the beak. Your a great chickie mom , I am sure she will be fine .

    Childrens health and poultry

    Thank You Morning Dove, I was crying as I read that. I love him soo much and would never do anything to harm him. But, yes I was fired for holding him too much and she says it makes it difficult for her when she gets home with him. She is always going on about my birds. I wash and have...

    Gangrene or a bruise?

    I agree with Bird Brain ( I like that ). I would think that it would really have a nasty smell. Gangrene is dying flesh, I am not sure thats its been enough time since the dog attack for it to be gangrene. Is she still eating and drinking? I remember where she is hurt... go ahead and sniff ...

    Crop not clearing out...feels like a bean bag-no hard spots

    you can try soaking small pieces of bread in olive oil and letting her eat that. Then massage her crop, just make sure that you do not push it up, you want to rub downwards.
