    Prolapse Vent Won’t Stay In

    Mine was doing the same each time I pushed it back in. We are on day 5 of her “lockdown” and today it looked much less swollen then before. I finally gave up pushing in and instead just applied ALOT of prep h in and around in hopes that if I could get the swelling down maybe she would leave it...

    Prolapse Vent Won’t Stay In

    Today is day 5 of her “lockdown” as I’m calling it. The first 3 days I pushed it back in at least 5-6 times a day and she would just push it right back out.. I then just decided to apply the prep h around and inside the vent to see if I could get the swelling to come down maybe she wouldn’t push...

    Prolapse Vent Won’t Stay In

    Hey everyone, This is my first time dealing with a prolapsed vent. She is a 1.5year old mixed breed, noticed yesterday morning she had a prolapsed vent. I immediately separated her from the flock, brought in our basement, cleaned up her bum, lubed up and pushed it back in and applied...

    Sick Chicken? Cold Chicken?

    She is the lowest on the pecking order. I guess you could say she is bullied because they won’t even let her on the same roost as the rest. She was molting a bit, maybe that’s what it is. Her comb was always like that from being picked on. She’s never pale, and everything else seems normal. I...

    Sick Chicken? Cold Chicken?

    Hello all, I’ve got a 1.5yr old barred rock, she is at the bottom of the pecking order as you will tell by her bare head in the photo. Last week with warmer temperatures she was fine, outside all day soaking up the sun doing normal chicken stuff. This past week the temperatures around me have...

    Scaly Leg Mites?

    Chicken lethargic, yellow/green runny poop

    Yes I’m going to try to get her in tomorrow morning. The emergency vets around me don’t treat poultry. I just want to make sure I’m doing all I can to keep her comfortable through the night.

    Chicken lethargic, yellow/green runny poop

    Is that seem like the best bet even though there is no blood in her feces? I’ll probably treat everyone just to be safe, but I don’t want to scare myself lol

    Chicken lethargic, yellow/green runny poop

    She’s a smaller chicken to begin with but definitely not underweight. Yes she is drinking. She does not fuss when palpating her abdomen or when I was feeling around her vent. What would I do about the coccidia?

    Chicken lethargic, yellow/green runny poop

    Hello all, I am still new to raising chickens. I have a 6 month old crested cream legbar who yesterday started acting off. This past week we have had a heat wave where I live (Southern Ontario) so all the chickens have felt it. Yesterday I noticed she was hanging out more in the coop and when...

    What Breed Could This Be??

    Hello all! New to the chicken world (I have barred rocks) 2 weeks ago I bought 7 chicks from a local lady who said they were a mix of Maran/Legbars/Ameraucana. The other 6 all look relatively the same, this one looks completely different from the others. I tried to get full body pictures but...
