    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    Thanks for understanding and encouraging me. We talked about it this evening and will put her down tomorrow. I so appreciate all of the wisdom and advice.

    She does appear to be suffering for sure.

    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    So it seems that you are saying this is likely going to kill her and at this point she is just suffering. Even though I am a nurse, I don’t want to drain ascites as a temporary solution. It sounds like you guys think this ISNT EGG BOUND and like the peritonitis that really isn’t curable...

    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    She still seems the same. Epsom salt soaks daily, extra calcium and dusting with permethrin. Her abdomen is swollen. She is still eating and drinking. What do I do now? I don’t want her to suffer.

    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    This is exactly how she is sitting. I can check tomorrow. I’ll read the article tonight. Thanks. She is sleeping now in the laundry basket. The other hens weren’t bothering her today.

    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    She is eating and drinking. I gave her some cottage cheese with crushed oyster shell in it because initially I thought it was egg bound. Her abdomen is distended and she is sitting up tall like an owl and trying to contract something out at times. She ate that very quickly and wanted more...

    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    That area circled in back is my concern also. I’m going to do all of the above mentioned things.

    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    I see nothing prolapsing. This is more what I’m worried about circled in black. There is poop on it but what is underneath looks necrotic. Which I fear is her tail.

    Is this her tail necrotic or is this some kind of growth or something

    Here is a picture where you can see her vent more clearly. The part above the vent appears to be fuzzy with feathers stuck in it which appears to be the end of her tail becoming necrotic. Nothing appears prolapsed though.

    She’d been soaking for about 30 minutes before these pictures. Should we keep her inside tonight?

    Here is my update. Two more egg hatched this morning. There are now 8 chicks. 7 are yellow or light red and one of the two that hatched today is black (must be my Black Australorp's egg) My broody has tried to kill the black chick that hatched today, but accepted the other light one that...

    Broody has left other eggs to care for chicks

    I candled the eggs and got rid of the two that were empty. Three looked completely dark and I left those. She is back on the eggs with the chicks under her. My 6 year old hung out there in the coop all afternoon and said the other chickens seemed to be fine around them. I was concerned...

    Broody has left other eggs to care for chicks

    We had 6 chicks hatch (2 about 48 hours ago and 4 sometime yesterday. Today, Momma and chicks have moved to the other side of the coop. I had a partition in the coop to keep the other chickens away and have opened the run door for them to free range at sun up everyday since the hatch. Now I...

    bleeding from being pecked during molt

    rooster training.....will do research on that one. I went out at bedtime and stroked him for a bit. I think he forgave me. He's never been aggressive one tiny bit toward any of us. He was 'a little over a year old" when I bought him last summer. Hoping this spring thing passes quickly...
