    Prolapsed vent

    Be careful of infection too. I've seen prolapse in sheep and cows and you have to keep them very clean and tidy down there.

    Ill chicken? Please help

    Hiya, I thought you'd appriciate an update. Unfortunately Nugget passed away ealier today at 7 years old. Essentially her organs and muscles gave up, crop impaction was a side effect of her digestive system giving up. She had a great life :')

    Quail hen scalped! HELP!!! (GRAPHIC)

    We had a quail and the dog got her through the meshh and ripped of her feathers and skin around her neck. Quail are very hardy birds. She lived inside with us for a few weeks, isolated from the others and applied disinfectant and kept it clean. She made a full recovery although her feathers...

    Ill chicken? Please help

    Yeah I was thinking impacted crop. I looked in their coop where she usually perches and there's just watery liquidy poo. I massaged her crop a bit, it's roughly the size of a golf ball but not not hard. I'm gonna monitor her and give her water every so often 🤞

    Ill chicken? Please help

    Hi, we have a 7 year old pekin bantam called Nugget, we have owned her, her whole life and is very loved. She lives with 3 other pekin bantams and their behaviour is all fine. Today I went out to see Nugget still on the perch, so I left her thinking she's just having a lie in. I went back 20...

    Designing a new coop

    Hello :) We currently have 4 pekin bantams, and we are going to make them a new coop as their old one is literally falling apart. We live in the UK so the only predators we have to worry about are the foxes and maybe cats, but we've never really had any severe problems with either. Their...

    Shell-Less Egg

    My girl Popcorn did this once and it was weird, she laid an egg with shell the same day and then she also popped out a shell-less egg. It's never happened since and she then carried on laying shelled ones. I don't really know what to suggest as she was fine and came round pretty quick. Maybe...

    Wry Neck in 8 wk old bantam

    She's ok for feeding herself as long as it is at a suitable height for her to reach comfortably but we don't see her drink much. There's a water bottle that we added in there (the ones for rabbits and guinea pigs) but she's still learning how to drink for it right

    Wry Neck in 8 wk old bantam

    :Update post: A couple days ago I made a post on her after she put her head upside down and couldn't seem to bring it back up again and we had no idea what was up with her. Long story short we have come to the conclusion that she most likely has Wry Neck. Early days but she has perked up a bit...
