I have a Blue Slate Tom more than 20 lbs, probably closer to 30. Assuming I can catch him and hold him down, what kind of scale could I use to weight him accurately? (I can barely hold his wings closed, my dad will probably have to help) And I honestly cannot afford to feed him anymore. He...

Looks like she's doing fine now. Freed of bandages and the pen, she wanders around the yard with her sisters. She is much more vocal and acts fine now.

Yeah, I picked up some extra medical tape and neosporin today. Thanks. The other two look barley even noticeable, especially compared to the bandaged area.

Gave her that, and while she was very vigorously resisting me (the second I got a tiny space of her beak open, she shakes and wiggles out and away), took me a little bit to wrangle her, but she broke open a small scab and bled a little, it clotted and scabbed over.

I will start her on that. Brb.

Injectible. And I have plenty of salt now.

I am unsure what to give her. I have some yellow stuff in a green bag, I forget the name (not electrolytes), tylan 200 and penicillin. Should I pick something else up? I had a little trouble with blood as I mentioned before, but she isn't pale in the comb, is active and alert and I put a...

This one did not go so well. I do not know if I hit a blood vessel or something, but there was quite a bit of blood. I used a lot of styptic and I had most the bleeding stopped and I put some tight bandages on her and put her in a dark box to calm down. She looked a little droopy and I'm not...

I'm about to remove the large one, I'll post pictures later.

I was able to take out the one above the eye very easily. It was like a big pimple, but harder and chunkier. The second one, I was able to cut out the second one, the area affected, and it was a white/light yellow . The top of the scabbed area was dark and hard, and it has minimal blood...

I went to go grab her out of the pen yesterday, had her quarantined, but she wasn't there! I don't know how she could have gotten out, perhaps someone thought she wasn't supposed to be there and let her out. Now I will have to catch her again.

Why epsom salt? What about table salt?

I am not sure how hard it is, I will try and drain one. Can I do it with a syringe? I'm pretty worried.

One of my hens, I saw had some wierd lump on her face, it looked like her earlobe, but with no feathers I wanted to catch her to inspect it, but the geese chased her away and I only just now have been able to catch her. She is a Black Australorp. And when I caught her I noticed there are...

Yeah, it's used in pet mammals mostly. It worked like a charm though.

If you know a bird has a disease or parasites or is not in otherwise perfect condition, selling her would not be a good idea. Lice are bugs, as you know, so a healthy helping of DE on her should help out quite a bit. Also put it in the nest boxes and dust bathing areas.

Also, this is not a "growth" as you thought but swelling from an immune response. Turkeys are prone to nasal infections and that's probably what this is.

Heck if I know, I just care about the animal first. The animal's health is more important than me having excess meat. Plus I don't kill my own birds to eat them. No matter how they die, I bury them with tears in the backyard.
