Only the largest bird tries to dominate her around the feeder. Could be why she has become smaller. The red eye and wet nasal discharge though appears to be something else. I am considering going to see if I can find some Tylan water soluble and give her.

She has been with the flock since day 1. She is one of six. We have had them now for nearly 5 wks.

I have a 5 week old RIR from my local co-op. All has been well but she has shown signs of falling behind the others in size. She behaves usual as far as I can tell. She does act crazy hungry when I feed them. I have noticed the largest Buff has begun dominating her when she tries to eat...

I seen that yesterday at TSC but was not sure about the use of it.

She has been kept warm, only the night the bulb burn out did she get cold. I have been giving her water and also water with nutria drench. She is not eating. Lethargic with a single cheep every second or so. She constantly does this. Unsure if she even sleeps. She is still energetic when...

A Buff that is no more than 2 weeks old. She has been sick and isolated for a few days now. Started with a wet sounding "cheep" and quite a bit of head shaking. Shaking to the point of flopping. Sounds and looks like what a sneeze might be?? Eyes closed mostly and opening and closing of the...

Landed this post in the wrong section if anyone can move it or advise me on moving it.
