Hi everyone. I have a Blue Copper Maran rooster that is about 8 years old. He has never been sick before and I am very worried about him. Two days ago I discovered that his right eye was a little bit swollen and had bubbles coming from it. I put some Terramycin in/on it and I think it made it...

Okay I will leave it alone, thank you!!

it looks a lot better today vs what it did last night

I’m not home right now, but I will as soon as I get back!

Thank you for your tips! I read some things that said to soak the area with a warm cloth, is something I shouldn’t do?!

Hello! I have a Salmon Faverolle rooster with a beautiful big comb. But when I went out to feed last night, I noticed that it didn’t look quite right. About 1/2 of it is this blackish purple color and is very cold to the touch. He seems to be acting fine, (eating, drinking, running about for...

Thanks for your info! I am sure you know what winter feels like then;)

I do have 6 outlets in my coop, so I would defiantly be able to use a heater! Any recommendations on any, or just a basic heat lamp??

Hi all!! I recently have just had a new coop built for me and have a few questions regarding the floor. It is concrete so I am a little worried about my hens getting frostbite. I live in Montana, and we are expected to have a bitter winter this year(nothing new) I am planning on putting a...

Hi!! I have 1 barred rock hen named max, (among many other chicken breeds) and she is for sure my favorite chicken I have (shhh don’t say anything) and alothough she is definitely sweet, she has to compete with my 2 blue Cochins and my 2 light brahmas, for the award on most docile and social...

EDIT——— okay now that I know that to do I don’t know when to do it. Is it better to apply the oil and Vaseline during the day or at night. I know that my chickens will mess with it more during the day than at night, and I know that at night they tend to me more calm. I’m gonna just go ahead and...

He walks completely normal and doesn’t seem to be sore at all!

Do you think theracyn would do the trick?

Thank you so much for your thoughts I will definitely be applying oil and jelly to his feet. It’s 100% okay for them to eat right? Because I know that he will be messing with them!

Also if it is leg mites then couldn’t the other chickens have gotten it by now. It’s been at least a year and all of my other chickens are fine! Not saying you’re wrong I’m just trying to really narrow it down.

Thank you so much for the advice. I don’t know if I would be able to soak his feet, I think it would cause him to get very stressed. Do you think I could just apply the oil and the jelly or do I absolutely need to soak them. Also can I use coconut oil instead?

. Here are a couple more pictures. Also I forgot to mention that he acts and walks perfectly normal![/ATTACH]

Hello, my gray Copper Maran rooster is about 6 years old and is such a good boy. He is so good with all of my hens and isn’t really breeding them much anymore, due to his age. He has had bad feet for probably a year now but never this bad. I know that sometimes if the rooster breeds regularly...

Thanks for your input! I will check into that also!
