    Old hen coughing frequently, and rarely pooping

    Hi everyone. I have this nearly 8 year old black sex-link hen that recently developed some sort of issue. It started a few weeks ago, with her just coughing at times. I thought at first that it may be a respiratory issue. I tried using VetRx, and some Green Goo Poultry Respiratory Care. Neither...

    Good pigeon diet?

    Wow I never once thought to give them catnip! I have plenty of that growing around here.

    Good pigeon diet?

    I was wondering what you guys feed your pigeons? Currently, I feed mine this feed: https://www.chewy.com/browns-bird-lovers-blend-dove-pigeon/dp/122237?utm_source=google-product&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=f&utm_content=Brown%27s&utm_term=%7Bkeyword%7D I've heard really good things about...

    Fancy pigeons in winter?

    The rescue did say they are large birds, so I think so too. I do use this in my coop as well, and so far so good: https://www.amazon.com/Magicfly-Chicken-Display-Temperature-Adjustable/dp/B08CH13XH4/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=coop+heater&qid=1623027719&s=lawn-garden&sr=1-4#customerReviews...

    Fancy pigeons in winter?

    I'm not sure of the breed, as they didn't say, but here's a photo of them if that helps!

    Fancy pigeons in winter?

    Hi all! I'm considering adopting a pair of fancy pigeons from a rescue, and honestly I'd like to keep them outdoors in the coop year round like I do with my others. I live in central Pennsylvania and winters can vary greatly! My coop is 4'Wx8'Lx7'H. In the winters I use 6mil greenhouse film to...

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    Yeah I can definitely see why she wouldn't have been feeling great if she was passing that. Can't imagine it felt very good! She actually laid her other egg a bit earlier, and it was a normal egg. No roughness to note. She has her appetite back, her poo is normal, and she seems to be back to...

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    I don't think she ate much while I was away at work. Her food dish was about the same. Though she was starting to eat when I got home. I'll have a look at her droppings tomorrow and see if they've changed at all. Yes, her grit is a high calcium grit! She's actually never had an issue with laying...

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    Well, I think her issue may have been egg-related. She just laid one maybe 30 minutes ago. Maybe she was having trouble passing it?

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    There are peas in her feed, but she never wants them. So I usually end up giving them to Blu after a while. What fruits/veggies would you recommend?

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    I attached a photo of her droppings in my post above, and also noted what feed I give her. She is currently in a flight cage by herself, but is near my other pigeon, Blu.

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    Just got home from work! I put down some fresh paper on the floor of her cage before leaving this morning, so I could see if she pooed or vomited anymore. I attached a pic of her poo. This looks like multiple droppings combined, since I suspect she was sitting there for a little while. I feed...

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    I wish. But the nearest avian vet from me is nearly 3 hours away, and I really can't afford that right now. I wish I could. Is there anything you would recommend that I can do to help her? I keep Sav-a-chick on hand for my chickens/duck/geese. Would that stuff help her at all???

    Pigeon throwing up and lethargic

    I have a female pet pigeon, Percy, whom I raised since she was a week or so old. She's almost a year old now. Last night when I covered up her cage for the night, she was completely fine. When I uncovered her cage about half an hour ago, she was looking off. Her wings were drooped, and she was a...

    Toulouse gander in need of new home!

    I allow him and his lady to roam when I'm outside with them, but if I'm not, they're in a ~1 acre enclosure with my chickens.

    Toulouse gander in need of new home!

    Hi there! I have a Toulouse gander in need of re-homing! He will be 3 years old in May. I've had him since he was just a week old. He is in good health, and has never had any real health issues to speak of. Very good looking boy! I'm re-homing him due to not having enough room for more females...
