Looking for some help with my handsome Crested Cream Legbar roo Gonzo. Not sure what happened if he was pecked in the eye or what, but it is swollen shut, with pus oozing out. We have been cleaning it out and putting drops in it and polysporin around it. However we have been reading that we are...
Thanks for your reply. I don’t think it’s broke, and not sure about a dislocation. It is just swollen around the joint (it is hard) and he walks on it. It bends outward when he puts weight on it
good day all
Looking for a little advice. I have a year old Rhode Island Red (Lucifer) rooster who has a bit of a wobbly leg. He has had it for a long time, and it almost seems like he is double jointed. When he walks his right leg bows out to the side at the joint. He is still eating, drinking...
I have an incubator which holds seven eggs, the eggs are to be placed in the incubator pointy side down however when turning the eggs in this type of incubator how is this process done.
I am in DAY6 of the incubation process and have been flipping my eggs end to end. I am concerned I have ruined...
Thank you all for the love.
Our beautiful girl is no longer suffering.
Still a little shaken as to what exactly took place with her. We have only had our flock for 7 months.... hoping Tragedy is not a common occurrence :0(
So she slept most the night, I soaked her again, took another gruesome picture. Unless anyone has some miracle solution about what is hanging out of her we have decided to put our lovely out of her misery.
Firstly thank you all for your responses. We love our little June very much, and do not want her to suffer, but at the same time we want to give her a chance. She was fine this morning!
She has had a nice warm bath, we iodined some new rubber gloves and my husband attempted to put things back...
we just found one of our 7 month old chickens with what we think is a prolapsed vent, there does not seem to be an egg there but she is bloody, has a huge swollen lump on her bum and worst of all has a length of tissue hanging out of her about 2-2 1/2 inches long. Is this what I am supposed to...
Thanks for your feedback, I hate to have to get rid of it, but I only have 2 other 11 week old chicks (rir) and one of them is a cockerel as well.
The people I got them from told me the mix, I do believe they did say mama was the barred rock and dad the Wyandotte.
Good day!
I have 3 8 week old chicks and I would love some input.
I am told that they are a mix of Barred Rock and Wyandotte.
Here is Bagrha and Sally
I know I know .... seems like Bagrha is a cockerel... but I am holding out on some small hope that maybe because of the mix it could be a...
Thank you so much for your replies... even though I wanted to be told I was wrong and it could be a pullet☹️
So I'm brand new to this is it gonna be impossible to have 2 roosters with only 3 hens?
So this is my 5 week old barred rock, it has some brown on the front and grey markings down it's legs.I am really hoping this is a pullet, but am having my doubts. Anyone wanna give me some hope? I already have a 9 week old rir cockerel.
