    Quail Open leg fracture

    I dunno why my previous post was not added, but here we go again. You did everything possible for your little fellow. She needs time to heal the fracture, so there isn't much you can do now. Check her foot everyday. See if it gets hot, swollen or starts to stink. If you want to change the...

    Needing help and advice! Pullet had soft shell egg break inside her!

    If you see a shell membrane hanging from her vent, you can gently pull it out. I suggest a vinegar or saline flush. Add a teaspoon of vinegar into 250 ml of clear water and flush her vent out with a sterile needless syringe. Repeat a few times, like 2 times a day for a few days. The vinegar...

    Weird Boil/bubble next to beak. Help!

    Does it stink? Are other hens affected? Stinking would mean tha it is infected, and if other hens got lumps like that too, it is contagious. I would observe it closely and maybe seperate her. If it grows, you can try to pop it with a sterile needle and remove the content of it. Then flush it...
