Apologies for not posting an update sooner. Turns out she had a nasty tumor on the wing. Took her to the vet and he took off almost her whole wing. She stayed overnight one night and is now back home in her 'quarantine' pen separate from the other 2 chickens. Vet thought she might have a hard...

Thanks again DNL. We wrapped up her wing so it's not dragging. Cleaned the wound as much as we could. It looks horrible. All black and kind of swollen. Hopefully the vet can fit us in tomorrow. She's isolated from the others. Layed an egg today actually too. Eating fine. We're worried the vet...

Thank you DNL-we've been applying Neosporin and antibiotic wash to it. Can we actually cut the end feathers? That alone will make her feel way better I think. Or can they be plucked without hurting her? Actually going to wash her again now. Also how can we wrap it to her body? Is there a...

Hi all-We haven't posted much at all though we check the site out quite a bit. We have 3 Golden Comets. One afternoon a few weeks ago we saw one had a wing wound. Can't figure out where it came from. No wild animals. They never fight and have all been together since they were young. We bathed...

Oh man I apologize to everyone helping us out because of my not posting lately. I myself got severely ill and haven't been online since my last post on here. I had very high fever for a few days-went to the doc and now my temp is low and I still feel crappy so I was just too sick to...

Thanks Ken. She's looking better this morning. Eyes are full open and she ate well. Still gasping slowly though. We're gonna give it today and see how she is. If she's not better I'm going to cull her. She doesn't appear to be in any pain at least................

Thanks for the reply. She's slowly going downhill. I'll try to get Corid tomorrow. She ate fairly well today but is acting weird. She is still doing the gasping thing but now her eyes are usually shut and she's arching her head almost completely backwards as she gasps. Now her eyes are open and...

I'm giving Red a little plain yogurt mixed with liquid B12 and a bit of Boost. She loves it and ate it all. Gave her some regular food too which she eagerly ate. Wish she'd stop that gasping-she did it all night and it seems to be draining her energy. She's perked up a bit after the yogurt and...

I am waiting to hear back from the farmer I got her from as far as Marek's vaccination. He said she was vaccinated and we think that was it. No blood and has a little diarrhea . She's stopped chirping and is getting lethargic. Just sits there slowly gasping with her eyes closed. I'll run to the...

Hi everyone first post though I've been on this site many times since I got my 4 chickens a few weeks ago. We have 4 Golden Comets now 13 weeks old. All were healthy till 2 days ago when I found Red laying on her side in the dirt. She can't stand and acts drunk-no equilibrium. Called a few pals...
