2 days ago I noticed Frennie not acting like herself. She wasn't walking around a lot she did kind of have a waddle to her walk and her poop was watery (it looked normal but watered down).Her crop felt like a water balloon. I thought she was egg bound possibly so that night when I was making...
She's about 2yrs old. I have a photo from the months ago to compareanother girl has a white pimple on her beak that came up this week so maybe dry pox going around but this looks different. Also I know they have lice I've been adding DE to their dusting areas but we've had quite a bit of rain...
The chick pipped yesterday around 9-11am. All good today, i checked in one more time around 230pm and the break was poking through. Mama still sitting on it.
I checked back in around 6:00 p.m. and the egg has crushed and the chick doesn't seem to be moving I took off some of the shell and it...
I have 10 chicks (about 4-5 weeks is my guess, I'll post photos cause I'm not sure about the age) they are currently in a large run while my flock free ranges around it. I've been doing the c but don't touch method for a little over a week. I've also brought hens individually into the run...
Me again, it's been a rough week. I just lost a hen this morning😥
This afternoon I go outside to play inthe chicken garden with the girls and I see my EE is laying down kinda on her side, leaning up against a post. Unlike her for prime cricket hunting time.
I go to get a closer look- she's...
I have a one-year-old Wyandotte who has been sick since yesterday. We have had record breaking heat this summer in San Antonio Texas and it's been brutal. The rest of the flock seems well, including a broody bo.
It was 109 yesterday in the coop the shaded coop. It did not get below 82° last...
Yesterday she was fine. She's about a year old. Free ranger, organic layer crumbles and corn scratch.
I noticed she was still on the roost this morning when everybody else was running around. Her breathing is really labored her whole body moves when she's breathing. It almost sounds a little...
Found in a towel after bathing my girl. Used scotch tape so ignore the hairs and threads. No noticable scabs out skin irritations.
Think the population is small at this point but want to nip in the bud asap
9 month old hen, crested cream legbar.
Just noticed overnight, this morning she's got a slumped back end and her neck feels hard and u-shaped between her crop and her beak. It's very warm in that area too.
Not eating or drinking.
She isn't moving around a lot either. When I put her down she kind...
I don't know how to stop bleeding. Small town, beta are closed on Sunday. Please help.
Looks like it's a tip break.
I'll get another photo. This one isn't good
