    Broken gosling toe

    I have a 4 or 5 day old Sebastopol gosling that was hatched by her mama. The 4 she hatched have been out with the flock the last couple of days and this morning, when I let them out, I realized one gosling was limping a little. I grabbed it up and found that one of its three long toes is purple...

    Will free range turkeys fly away?

    At what age did you let them out of the brooder to walk around with the chickens? Since there are only two of them, I’m just so nervous to let them out.

    Goose not eating. Secondary to bumblefoot infection. Please help.

    I was also wondering if her throat is hurt by the pills getting shoved in there for 2 weeks. When she eats and is trying to swallow it and doing her shaking her face to get it to go down her throat it falls out of her mouth and she often stands there for a few moments with her mouth open. It...

    PEKIN BUMBLEFOOT QUESTIONS

    We have been healing some bumbles in a goose with pool noodles cut to go around the bumble to keep pressure off of it (think of a corn on a human foot) and then wrapping in vet wrap to keep the pad in place. I will attach pictures of the completed boots and make a video next time we rewrap...

    Goose not eating. Secondary to bumblefoot infection. Please help.

    My goose stopped walking about 3 weeks ago. We brought her to the vet and she was diagnosed with bumblefoot and prescribed clavamox 500 mg 3 x daily for 2 weeks. She finished her prescription about a week ago and the doctor rechecked her and took her off antibiotics. Her feet have been wrapped...

    Orange poop. Coccidiosis?

    That is super helpful! Great resource! In my worry I read about giving amprolium preventatively every once in awhile. Do you think that's a good idea given that they are confined to a much smaller space than usual?

    Orange poop. Coccidiosis?

    Just noticed an orange poop in the chicken coop. Birds are confined to coop to minimize exposure to avian flu. Do I treat for coccidiosis just in case? With amprolium? Should/can I give it to my geese too just in case? They are confined separately but share a wall with see through windows and...

    Mama is moving remaining eggs and hatched chicks away from a hatch in progress

    Hm I totally didn't realize you needed to do that? Just for sanitation? The cardboard box was mama and the babies is in the bathroom with our 15 5-week-old pullets in a big feeding trough.

    Mama is moving remaining eggs and hatched chicks away from a hatch in progress

    Yea that's what I keep wondering. The baby is hatched and the last time I checked, about an hour after the placing the chick under the mama, it seemed like it was still under the mama with the 2 other chicks hatched a few days ago and 2 more unhatched eggs. We'll see what's going on in the...
