    Droopy young rooster

    One of my young gamefowl (about...four months old, I'd say) looks, for lack of a better word.. droopy. He's just not himself. He's holding his wings low, holding his tail low. I can't find anything visibly wrong with him and i'm about to start him on baytril just to see if it helps because he...

    Ascites

    Unfortunately just discovered one of my elderly serama hens has a belly of water. I pulled off what I could. Very textbook ascites, pale yellow fluid. Her breathing is less labored now. This has been developing for quite a while and I knew something wasn't right- the fluid has just presented as...

    Soft tissue injury

    My young stag has been corded for a while now to keep him from attacking the seramas when he matures, as he's a game bird. He hasn't matured yet lmfao and is still an incredible weenie. But he hurt his leg. I think he might have tried to pull free of the cord? He's favoring it only slightly. It...

    Hawks!

    Help! My babs have been delegated to their pens. I have 2 hawks hanging around. I've lost 2 baby chicks and I thought it was feral cats so I started locking tiny ones up but now I've seen the hawks coming and I KNOW they took the peeps. I want to put up bird mesh over the free range area. Has...

    I have a strange peep

    Help! So yesterday a lil Serama hatched. He (yep, a boy) is perfect. All his little toes are accounted for. But he just doesn't seem -right-. It's been 24 hours and he will not eat and drink by himself. He can stand up, but with effort and spends a lot of time rocking back on his hocks and...

    Tylan 50 dosing

    I just want to double check. I'm dosing serama and serama size birds (have a couple randoms too lol- 2 modern game bantams and a sebright) and can only buy injectable tylan, but am dosing orally. I did 1/4 cc. I am planning to do this for a week per instructions I found here. Two are congested...

    Sinus infection

    So I have a serama cock with this- I think I'm going to ask my vet to exise it but it won't be cheap. Is there anything else I can do for him for now? I believe it has thick cheesy pus in it. Won't come through a needle hole, I tried that. I have baytril on hand I can give him.

    Spring has come! What you getting??

    It's chicken math season. We have 2 Cochin peeps already- gold laced. Purchasing serama hatching eggs in a few weeks. And we set 6 Cochin eggs last week under my broody (should be a mix of standard and frizzle, out of my high quality show bird stock I house at my dad's). And a new puppy is due...

    Possible crop issue

    So we recently got back Magnum, a big polish rooster who is joining our other two house boys. He had been staying with a friend. Anyway, that's not really relevant. What is important is he's home where he belongs and he has a problem. He has stinky breath, kind of sour. I wonder if he might...

    Sentry spot on?

    Hey guys. My indoor dudes, mostly my serama, seem to have a stubborn case of scaly mites. Bummer. I tried a few treatments but I think I need to go to a spot on. I have some canine Sentry. Does anyone know if this is alright for my boys? If not I'll get some revolution which I know is safe...

    So Boss my silver sebright being the little hustler that he is has a few scars on his face from fighting and one from a metal crate when we had to hit the brake suddenly in the car and he slid hard into a sharp spot. Nothing too severe. But do minor imperfections on the face from injuries...

    Feather fixer question

    I wanted to get this for my two house boys to supplement their beautiful feathers but it is really high in calcium. Is there an alternative product to support healthy feathers that isn't so calcium rich? Thought about giving them some of my parrots featherrific..
