Thank you very much Plucky Jen.

Well incase anyone has been following the thread, we put Lizzie down today. Her breathing became labored and you could tell she was done. After putting her down we decided to do a necropsy on her, we wanted to find out as many answers as we could. We started with the crop since we thought that...

Update. 3 Mornings ago we checked on Lizzie and her large doughy crop had gone down, yay! I completed the 7 day regiment of Monistat so hopefully the doughy crop will not return. However she still has a couple of corn kernels and some sunflower seeds that will not emptyout of the crop. We have...

Yesterday I gave her about 2 tsp of coconut oil and massaged her crop. Her crop is large and doughy, when I massage it you can hear gurgling and yeasty smells come from her beak. I did this a 3 different intervals in the day. She is still getting the Monistat cream morning and night. She poop...

Thank you very much!

Well I have found something else out, finally. So Lizzie's crop for the past 3-5 days (that we know of) had been really squishy with a couple of gas bubbles. I have never had sour/yeasty crop in my flock before so just I didn't know. About an hour ago, feeling like there was nothing left for me...

I didn't mean to imply that I gave both wormers at the same time, sorry. I gave the Safeguard first for 3 days in a row, she did get better and put weight back on. About a month later (my timeline might not be quite accurate because I didn't write all of this down like I should have) she was...

I gave her the warm water/epsom salt laxative at 11:30 this morning. She did another poo just like the above pic, even with a corn kernel, and that’s it. Crop feels gelatinous and is not emptying completely.

She is fed a layer mash (always available) with whole corn and sunflower seeds as a treat in the morning and at night. She has grit available as well. Several years ago I had a sick peahen so I was going off of advice given then in regards to Safeguard (3 days) and Valbazen (5 days). I think the...

This was her poo this morning. She as not had access to corn in over 5 days.

Thank you, I will try that in the morning.

Hello Everyone, I took in a rescue this summer, a Rhodesian Island Red hen, and put her in the barn with my one legged roo whom I named Peggy. Everything was fine until late Oct/early Nov when Lizzie, the hen in question, started giving all the signs of either worms or coccidia. She had watery...

So just to let everyone know, I treated Mr. Guinea for capillary worms and coccidiosis, all the while keeping him indoors until the blisters went down. I didn't get a fecal done because in the fall I had problems with a peahen having capillary worms and coccidiosis, I just assumed he would...

Hi everybody, I have a 7 yr old male guinea that has not been doing too well this winter. We live in Northern Michigan and the temps here have been teens during the day and single digits at night. I have 2 male guineas housed with 1 peacock and 2 peahens. They have spent most of the winter in...

Thank you for the replies everyone, it is appreciated! The garage is heated, he is warm. I started tube feeding him.

My bird, Mr. Peacock is a 9(ish) year old IB male. On Dec. 29th I noticed he was not on the roost and had his head tucked under his wing. We live on an island in Northern Michigan so my access to a bird vet is nonexistent. At this time is was also very cold. We brought him into the heated garage...
