First time raising Saipan jungle fowl, and I was told that the girls grow their fathers faster than roos so I think what I have are two girls but one has bolder coloring than the other. Top is Crystal and I'm pretty sure she's a girl but Ruby has a lot of red in her feathers. Neither have...

She's about two/three months old. I separated her from the rest, and gave her a buddy but she isn't perking up. She'll just slowly wander around and close her eyes. Please help! The ready of her group acted kinda like this when I put them outside for the first time, and they all got better. But...

Mom attacked first chick and I don't know what to do. I've put on some antibiotics and vasaline on it, what do I do now? Please help!!!

I have a bantam americauna hen that's been disappearing for more of the day for the past two weeks or so. She'll show up in the morning for a half hour to an hour and then won't be seen for the rest of the day. She'll gorge herself on food and water while she's out and about, and I try to make...

I have a five week old bantam golden-laced-blue Wyandotte chick that I'm not sure what it's gender is. Whether or not it's a boy or girl I'm keeping it, as my v current polish rooster (as sweet as he is) is ruining make fair birds' feathers and will sadly be culled this summer (he was getting...

I have a turken chick that's about two days old and she can't open her wings because her skin had grown over the feathers and sealed them in place, and continues to do so at they grow longer. While all the other chicks have tiny feathers she only has one or two per wing because all the others...

I have a polish hen i recently discovered with heh feet, crest, and her left earlobe covered in blood. I can't find any injuries on her. She is still alive but very low energy. Does anyone know why she's like this? I couldn't find any corpses of anything, and her crop is empty so she didn't kill...

I've noticed that she's had pox for about a week, but she only had one dry pox spot. Since then, she's gotten wet pox and it's been getting worse by the hour. Thankfully she's still energetic and eating egg and oatmeal but when she tries to sleep she starts ghasping and shaking. What should I do?!

I have a little one year old Silkie that I believe is egg bound. A few days ago I felt a Gary lump in her abdomen and I got really excited for her first egg... It's been a few days and still no egg. She's stopped eating a lot and she will barely walk. When I feel her abdomen the egg is...

I have a roo and a little hen that have yellowish lumps all over their faces. when I remove the lumps they had a bunch of smaller lumps on the inside that still seem to be connected to him, I don't know if it's scar tissue or part of the lump. I assume this is a fungal infection but please help...

I just recently got a chick from a friend and it appears to be injured/crippled. It is a four-week-old but it's stunted as it looks like it's only two weeks. After examining it for a bit I think that the problem is due to the tendon on the back of the hock. The original owner said that both legs...

Hi, I have two ringneck doves that are both one year old a month ago. They're siblings, and I'm very sure one is a boy and not sure about the other one. I couldn't find a new home for the boy and so I released him early afternoon into my neighborhood. A friend down the street had two escape and...

Okay so I'm hoping that I'm posting this on the right place. I am getting a seabright chick in a few days and because I live in the country (with a lot of large menacing dogs nearby) and I have very few resources (can't build a roof for the run) I am planning on pinioning it. I hope to show it...

I am planning to buy a few bantam chicks that are good at flying but I live where flying over a fence could get them eaten by my neighbor's dog and so I was wondering if pinioning is a good option? I don't want to be constantly clipping off their feathers and I wouldn't mind clipping the pinion...

I have a 6 month old cockerel polish with really swollen wattles. My guess is frostbite because it has been really cold here in Idaho with record snowfall. I read in another forum to put Neosporin on them but I wanted more advice just in case. I have him now in my garage and he's acting fine...

Hello. I have a small flock that has no use except for showmanship and fun. I currently have three Polish (one is a cockerel, one is a pullet, and the other is a half-blind 5 yr old hen), I have one Silkie cockerel, and a Faverolles hen. I am going to be getting a Yokohama pullet and I also want...

I have a 4 week old dove who has a big, swollen lump on her bill. There is no discoloration or dots even on the inside. I looked it up and the only thing that seemed possible for her age and symptoms was a cyst. Any ideas on what it is or any treatment? I'll try to get some pictures soon.

I currently have two ringneck doves that are going to be hatching 2 eggs in a few days. I'm going to be keeping one of the squabs (II'll choose my favorite when the time comes) I'm hoping to use that one for showmanship at my local fair. Any tips on how to and when to start training he/she/it...
