    Need help!

    Thanks for all the advice guys. She is doing much better now. I am sure it was heat stress as it has cooled off a bit and she improved. We did give her electrolytes and she was drinking lots. Her crop was full yesterday evening when they went to sleep and empty this morning. And her behaviour...

    Need help!

    The other shellless was a while ago. I can't remember exactly when. About 2 years old. No the limp is no longer a problem. Something I forgot to mention was that it has been very hot here over the last three days and with the research I've done it looks like it might be heat stress. When I go to...

    Need help!

    I'll see what I can do about photos. It was whole until she decided to to eat it. I didn't see any discharge. I'll recheck her crop in the morning. I'm based in Kwazulu Natal South Africa. I'll try what you have suggested.

    Need help!

    Thanks. Her crop seems to be emptying. I felt her crop a moment ago and it had some food in it. But they have been outside for about 2hrs already. No bad breath. The day before last she laid a shellless egg. She has done this before and had no side effects. About 2. A standard layer mix and...

    Advice needed!

    Hi all this week I got my first chicks. Of the five one is not looking too good. She sits by herself, her wings are always drooping and she often has her eyes closed. She has also had pasty butt ( I have been cleaning it). What all could be wrong with her? The other four are fine. Thanks in...

    Laying eggs without shells

    I'm not sure how old they are as they were given to me. She has been laying for almost a year. They might be about a year maybe older.

    Laying eggs without shells

    That's what I would have thought but the get that from their laying mix. Do you think upping the amount of calcium will help?

    Laying eggs without shells

    One of my quail is laying eggs without shells? What are some of the things that could be amiss? The other female is laying normal eggs and they are about the same age. All my quail go outside in their hutch so they can get sun, grass and bugs to eat. As well as eating a laying mix. Thanks in...

    Starter breeds?

    Thanks for the feedback. I'll go check out the learning centre. I'll probably be asking questions for a while as I know very little about poultry. I look forward to learning more.

    Starter breeds?

    I don't know if this is the right place to post this but as you know I'm keen on keeping poultry. And I would like to know what a good starter breed of chicken is for a total novice. I live in South Africa and would like to know which is best for my country. Thanks in advance.

    HEPL!!! Again!

    Hi all as some of you know I have two young pigeons that I asked how and what to feed them. Now I have a new problem with the youngest one. These are his symptoms: lame/paralyzed in one leg, a clicking noise when he breathes and maybe a slight loss of appetite. He also has what might be pigeon...

    HELP!!!

    I now have a new problem. My pigeons have little red mites and what I think are pigeon flies. How do I get rid of them? I don't know what products we have in South Africa to deal with this. Any and all help will be most welcome. Thanks.

    HELP!!!

    Thank you so much for the help:). We did manage to get them to eat a bit of porridge. One seems very lively and other slightly older one is more laid back. I think they might be about 2 weeks old. I could be wrong though.
