I had 5 young chicks, 2 ended up escaping and getting caught by the cat... I was having my sister and mom take care of them for the next week or so, I come out and 2 more are dead in the cage skin and bones... leaving 1. (I do take care of my chickens this was and is a one time thing!) while I...
I've had this happen before, I just got a new batch of chicks from my feed store. I beleive I caught it in the early stages as will start treatment depending on what I hear.
Today she was weaker with the chicks, she can open her eyes just mostly closed and can walk, etc. just getting weaker...
Walking out to my coop seeing a large pile of feathers on the ground, just thought oops one down. (I have free range chickens during the day) I noticed what feathers to the young hen I walked around and there she was just doing her normal thing but when I tried to catch her I noticed she had a...
I have no clue, but when a baby cries that's good news maybe it's the same with chickens? I don't cull, I let nature take its course. I don't have the heart to kill them. Maybe she will just need some time to catch up. I'm sorry I can't give you exact info, best of luck with your chick.
I took a picture of her vent last night to be thorough and I don't know if anything was wrong with it just kinda open. I had her on her back while I took it. Should I upload it anyways if it helps solve mystery
She died last night must have shook a lot I hand her in a large dog crate and her bowl of water was spilled over and she was upside down In the corner anybody got an idea as to what it was and if it's anything to worry about with my flock. I put her in seclusion last night

thank you, I can't find my antibiotic on hand right now so I'm giving ACV I put a thread out earlier and no one answered so I decided to make a dramatic title thank you
i noticed one of my hens standing still with wings out I picked her up and she seemed incredibly calm. She was wheezing a little bit yesterday she was fine being her normal bossy self towards the younglings. Any ideas? Any diseases going around South West Fl?
Can you tell me what their eggs look like? That gives a lot of clues as to what is going on inside like does it have speckles, or shell bumps around it .
I read about about swollen kidneys put pressure on the sciatica and cause chicken to limp. That can be caused by an increase of calcium. Or scaly leg mights was another. I'm finding things relating to what your chicken is doing but nothing exactly like it try reposting but with a really...
Hmmm that's interesting I would try to limit her movement and let her eat and see if everything tries to heal in time. You can put a buddy with her just make sure she not being picked on. I'll reseach a little bit and see if I find anything. She definitely doesn't have an issue moving her leg. I...
