    Chick's anal cavity closed up due to the pecking of other chicks.

    I build my own brooder. Its 1m x 1/2m for 3 chicks at the most. Using a infra red light. Enough space to to move if it gets to hot under the light. It doesnt happen a lot. And it is only the Ringnecks that peck the others....and they are known for cannibalism. I know heat makes them aggressive.

    Chick's anal cavity closed up due to the pecking of other chicks.

    Wont believe what happened. I am still so upset. I told my husband to cull the golden chick (the chick that was also pecked). That chick was in so much pain. He could not poop at all. He didn't even breath properly. I tried everything. After my husband culled the chick, he wanted to see what was...

    Scratching and spasms in chicks

    I have no idea what it could have been. First time it happened. Last year I never had that problem. Out of my 45 Ringneck pheasant it only happened to those 2. Also glad they are okey. I hate to see animals in pain and they dont have ability to tell us whats wrong.

    Chick's anal cavity closed up due to the pecking of other chicks.

    I separated him immediately. I dont have coconut oil and stays very far out of town. I used germolene, Its also got anti-inflammatory and antibiotic properties. It soften everything. The anal cavity is very small but at least he is pooping.

    Scratching and spasms in chicks

    I incubate all my own eggs. Other chicks hatched at the same time....also ringneck pheasants, goldens and reeves. And there is nothing wrong with them. I actually cured them after a week. Gave them antibiotics. But still would like to know why it happened.

    Scratching and spasms in chicks

    2 of my day old pheasant chicks are scratching around their head/neck (with both feet at a time) that leads to severe spasms. Chicks chirps uncontrollably as if in pain. Does anyone know what is wrong? Its definitely not mites. My new chicks get a new and clean towel.
