    Crooked beak

    I have a 4 year old hen. A while back she developed a hole in her upper beak just below the nose. I don't know how this happened. I don't know if it is an injury or if some sort of fungus caused it. I haven't done any thing to it. The beak has now curled upward at a sharp angle. The lower beak...

    Oh wow, after I got done posting the last message I went out to take pictures but it's starting to get dark and they are already trying to go to bed.

    My pullet's leg or foot is hurt, don't know what it could be.

    My hen had something that sounds familiar. In her case the hen's vent was red and distended. She looked like she was trying to lay an egg but couldn't. I thought maybe she had a prolapsed uterus and I tried to push it back in but that didn't work.It felt like a round ball in there, an egg? I...

I'm not sure if I need to moisten it or if it is already starting to grow skin, it just might be. It is hidden under her wing...

    Hawk attacked my chick- need advice for wound

    What is Blu kote like. Can it be applied over a large area? I assume you would find it at the feed store. Do you know if her skin will grow back or is she doomed for a short life?
