I have a 3 week old Blue Slate poult that has 2 airbubbles under his wings. I dont exactly know what they are but I'm certain theyre air filled. The lower one is right beneath a vein. He acts completely normal and it doesnt hurt when I lightly touch it. Any ideas?
My turkey poults keep dying and I have no idea why. I ordered 15 from Murray Mcmurray and they came in 5 days ago. 2 died in box, and so far almost everyday one has died, leaving us down to 7. Giving them game bird starter, regular water, dry clean shavings everyday and the run of the mill...
I live in the state of Georgia, and I was wondering if there was a good place to find swan cygnets to purchase. I have the room, but woukd prefer to start off young. Thanks!
This is the 4th duck dead in the past week. I found my runner duck after my nightly walk dead and in tact about 5 feet away from my porch. I have no idea what is killing them. There is a bite mark on the back of her neck and injuries on her side. Help me identify whats killing my bird! I am in...
I think tonight is his final night. He has stopped eating and drinking and I cant force feed him. He can barely keep his head up. I stuck him under mother hen in the coop with his brother and sister. I feel terrible since this is the first time Ive hatched chickens. Before we have hatched ducks...
Right now I cant take any pictures because I am at school. He did not have any problems with his leg before and I have no clue how he broke his leg at all.
My 4 week old cockerel has broken his knee joint. I found him laying in the woods on his side with the mother hen and the 2 other chicks sitting by him. When I found him his entire lower leg was lame but he could still move his thigh. Its been about a week and a half and he has been staying in a...
My cousin tossed out a bunch of cherries without knowing geese cant eat the pits. My 4 month old African geese at a couple and I don't know what to do. I'm freaking out. What do I do?
So I am trying to get Seramas, the smallest chicken breed in the world. The problem is that we want to get only 3 hatching eggs, and we do not have an incubator. I was thinking of hatching them under one of our broody runners, but realized that she would crush them. One thing I am currently...
So my 4 day old goslings are making this high pitched squeal at random times. I am new to geese, so I am cautious with plenty of things. Also I know this should be in the feeding and watering forums, but where do I get 20% protein food because I can only find 18% at my local Tractor Supply.
Alright, she is eating and they suggested to try letting her swim, and it really seems like a great therapy for her just to let her leg go afloat and it seemed to help with pain as well. They also suggested a spray to help with inflammation as well that is sold at Tractor Supply.
Edit: the...
Alright lets kick it off from the start. So 3 of my ducks got hit by a car and only 1 survived. The other 2 were perfectly fine. The one that survived was our black indian runner. We found her just sitting under one of the trucks and we brought her inside and kept her in a nice kennel. She has...
