Unfortunately it’s too late for a necropsy. She’s already been buried for a couple days now. Does anybody think it may have been infectious bronchitis? The weirdest thing about it, in my opinion, is that she had the symptoms for a full three weeks and besides that acted normal. Like it took that...

so I had an ameracauna hen who for about the past few weeks had started to walk around making gurgling sounds/gasping for air as she walked around. It was weird bc besides that she was fine, eating and drinking normally and still laying. I had asked around and people were telling me to take her...

So I have two roosters who live with about 15 hens and they usually get along okay, aside from the occasional quarrel, but for the most part my older, year old rooster is the dominant one and the other, who is 7 months old is pretty tame. So I was really shocked this afternoon to find the older...

My only thought for those symptoms would be maybe a case of coccidiosis. If she lost a bunch of weight or is starting to then I would be certain that it is as lethargy, disinterest in food, and weight loss are the tell tale signs of it. If you think it is you can use corid powder or solution...

This is definitely a pullet. The comb on a cockerel would be a lot larger and redder, also there are no signs of any early male hackle/saddle feather development so you have a female

They definitely look like they have golden laced wyandotte in them, and they could be darker because they were diluted by a darker breed for the other parent. I actually have a 5 week old pullet from my chickens that is a golden laced wyandotte x blue birchen maran mix and looks kind of similar:

UPDATE #2: I checked on her this morning and her wound made remarkable progress! It looks like it’s already starting to close up! But I have a question: should I keep the bandage on all the time or give her certain periods to let her wound air out? Here’s what it looks like now:

Okay thanks! I am pretty certain that the bone itself is fine as it is a small opening, and I’m hoping it stays that way. :fl It could be a lot worse if it were broken.

Okay thank you!!

Sadly it’s kinda too far up on her shoulder for me to wrap individually. I tried but the wrap just slipped off. I’m trying to be careful about wrapping around the wings, though, as I want her to still be comfortable and have an easy time breathing so I made sure I could fit a few fingers...

UPDATE: I cleaned the wound with a rag and water and tried to flush it out as best as I could but it still wasn’t perfectly clean. I used antibiotic ointment as well, she is in real pain as she was crying out in pain as I washed it :( I wrapped it up real good with gauze and wrap and I separated...

She flaps her wings but has never really been able to fly since her wings have been torn up for years. It is luckily not broken and I did separate her, clean the wound, use antibiotic ointment, and wrap the wound. I hope she will be okay, sadly my dad doesn't allow me to take my chickens to the...

So a couple of days ago when my family was on vacation and we had a pet sitter, 7 of my 25 chickens were killed in a chicken massacre and several of my chickens were attacked but still survived. One of my ISA browns in particular is very injured that I noticed when we got home today. She is...

i have a flock of 26 and found out that I lost 10 of them today. :hit My chickens are typically kept in a run when we are not home, and since we are currently on vacation, they were kept in the run, yet apparently they either got out or something got to them because the girl pet sitting for us...

Thank you so much! This is very informative!! :)

Yeah! Maybe I got lucky?

Yes I will definitely do that!!

Thank you so much for all your help! Hopefully they’ll actually take the time to look at it!

Yes that’s a great idea! I’ll have to email them at some pint today!

Yeah I think you’re on to something :)
