She hates the wrap, cant use her leg at all, but hates me touching her even more but is getting used to me having to move her and replace her water and food close by but she will still flail about if I dont use a towel to blind her before moving and touching her....I wanted goats for milk and...

I was told to put them on an electrolyte nutrient mix , ( 1 tsp per 2&1/2 gal. ) after the corid but didnt mention for how many days before giving them just water but will asked tomorrow when Shemp goes back to the vet for a check up since he splinted it, the splint is hard to see as it is...

Thats good to know, thank you ! I will check what greens has that element, normally give them collard greens all winter and then clover and grasses in summer fresh cut daily

I believe it will grow back out in some time so your probably ok. dont know about chickens but birds do, peacocks u even have to trim sometimes

Keep me posted on your birds plz, I like the idea of using the doxycycline if needed in the future as it mixes in water

Ok, I got the hen to the vet first thing and the leg was broken in the drumstick and they set it correctly and will take her back in a week, vet said keep giving greens and everything else,but no answers on treating the ground in their pen which for now is closed ? and after 4 days all the...

When treating for coccidiosis using Corid, should I stop feeding my birds collard greens since these contain lots of vitamins and minerals which the parasites also feed on ?

The only vet that could help went out of town for the weekend so Ive been forced to wait till monday, Im hoping they can xray the leg and give me better news and that its not broken just badly bruised and just her toes are broken. She stood tried walking but didnt go far so I put her back in her...

I would listen to your vet but perhaps ask more questions and get a second opinion , Im no vet but I just googled doxycycline and it says it is broad spectrum antibiotic commonly found at pet supply stores called Doxyvet Liquid and it says it will make the parasite sterile but does it kill it ...

Yes it was very helpful especialy in getting properly prepared to do the job and re feeling everything again, which Im still confused as to how I cant find the break, but would explain the bruising I didnt expect it to be green colored and so hoping your right and its not the other. I started...

I wanted goats for milk and I thought it would be fun, instead I ended up peacocks and having the problems you get with them I now cant imagine what goats would be like as there is a lot more work involved so mad props to all you and best of luck

Im gonna be sick over this, I didnt think to rub water on her leg and put her back for the night already she was starting to freak out under the towel but talking to her seemed to help. Thats a relief if you say the greeen is normal. The green is the entire leg muscle and darker further up where...

Her leg has turned green all the way up if u can see the picture from where it starts or has spread to. I dont think this is normal and may los another bird . After feeling her leg again I couldnt find any breaks so Im real confused as I swear I felt a break earlier. Im just freaking out anymore...

I went to go splint her leg and the leg has turned green so Im afraid for the bird right now as I dont think this is normal at all
