I have a 150 mg Fluconazole tablet and I have a chicken with what I strongly believe is sour crop. Any idea how I would dose her this pill?

Good morning! I believe that my chicken had sour crop and has aspirated. She has a gurgling sound when she breathes. Has anyone used homeopathy to treat their bird for something like this? I’d love any help or rec y’all could make! Thank you!

Good morning! I’m wondering how I would locate good heritage breed breeders in my area? How do you know you have a good breeder? Thank you! 😊

Is this frost bite?? No other birds in our flock have this 😢

We’ve discovered via our Vet that our chickens have mites. They’re very tiny and brown. Our Avian vet rec prometherin. My concern is that they preen their feathers and I don’t want them eating it. Any other suggestions on how to get rid of them? Does DE work? Would so appreciate some guidance...

Good evening! Last year we had round worms in a couple of our hens (meaning all). We treated them when we saw the worms and then retreated them several months later because our ground is often wet and warm. It's the perfect way to continue to the cycle. I've been scrolling through some...

I think one of my little Pullets has canker. I was reading that you can treat it with metronidazole. She’s probably only weighing in at a quarter of a pound. Any suggestions on how to treat her for possible canker?

I posted in a previous thread but didn’t get any feedback so I’m going to try again. I have a six week old barnyard mix check that we hatched. She has a growth underneath the bottom portion of her beak. Has anyone experienced this? And do you have any suggestions or thoughts? It doesn’t seem to...

I have the sweetest little pullet who is six weeks old. She is a Buff-laced Polish crossed with a Millie Fleur d'uccles. She has a growth right under her lower portion of her beak. Has anyone experienced this? Any idea how to help her? She’s ok now but it’s grown as she grows. Doesn’t appear to...

Good morning! This group has a lot of good advice when it comes to sexing babies so here we go. These 2 were born on June 3rd so over 6 weeks old. Daddy is an EE crossed with an Andalusian (but looks a lot like an Andalusian). Mom of the black baby is a black colored green queen. Mom of the gray...

This group is always so helpful! Right now I’m seeking some heritage breed birds on the west of Indiana. Does anyone know how to locate someone breeding? Or a reputable farm that’s able to ship? Thank you!! ☺️

Would love your thoughts! Hatch date of June 3rd, so 4 weeks old. Barnyard mixes. Your thoughts?

We just hatched seven baby chicks. All are barnyard mixes. Trying to figure out who is a boy and who is a girl. This little one and a few others have fairly developed combs. Does that automatically make them a rooster at three weeks of age? Would love this groups wisdom!!

My Golden laced Polish just hatched a baby. We’re not sure which rooster is the father. If our feather footed, Millie fleur d’uccles mated with her, would the baby automatically have feathered feet? Thank you 💛🐣

Looking for a little help with possible sexing of babies. We have a green queen hen that has mated with a bantam Easter Egger (single comb). We are trying to get an idea of the sex because we already have five roosters. Any suggestions for telling early on? If one of the chicks is born with a...

We have a blue splash Andalusian hen and an EE bantam roo that produced this cutie, roosting beside her mama. Has anyone had a cross like this before? She is by far the calmest, happiest little chick we’ve ever had! Very social with us. She walks up to us and wants us to hold her, as long as we...

Our blue splash Andalusian just hatched one of her chicks last night. Daddy is a bantam EE. We didn’t think she was the mama to the baby because she’s often very ornery towards the roo and we hadn’t seen him mate with her in a long time. We assumed it was from our other white egg layer (polish...

Has anyone tried this product for deworming? The active is febendazole.... Thanks so much, Robin...

I have been reading about down sexing and I’m having difficulty. Does anyone have any experience? Our Cochin is serving as a surrogate for some of our other hens. The yellow baby with a few black splotches has a buff laced polish mama and a EE bantam daddy. The other chick was from a standard EE...

One of my hens had white long, skinny worms come out in her feces this morning. Yesterday ironically, I had given her yogurt, garlic, thyme and basil. Wondering if that is what caused the expulsion of live worms. Today I spoke to an avian vet and they recommend going to our local feed store to...
