I have an Australop that disappeared for a couple days. When she came back, she was a mess. Both eyes swollen shut, and side f her face is swollen. She doesn't eat, but will drink if I put water in her beak. She's been on Tylan for 3 days, no change
Can anyone tell me what causes feces to build up on a chicks butt? I've had a couple die, used warm water and mineral oil on my third chick and waiting to see if she makes it. Just looking for info and if there is preventive maintenance for it

My RIR just hatched 8 little cotton balls. Their dad is a jersey giant. I was wondering how long before I should take them from mom? She's pretty ornery. I don't want them living on their own, cause of predators. Looking for advice
Went into coop this morning, found 2 eggs that had soft shells. They were right next to each other as if same hen laid egg. Squishy shells, but not too fragile. Any ideas?
