We have other small coops that we might be able to put in the run, but they won’t be able to see each other that much. We have a dog kennel that we can put, but we worry it would be too small for her to stay in the whole day, especially since she tends to fall upside down and she has to kick to...

Also, since she stays in the coop all day as to not get bullied, her feathers aren’t in the best shape(they’re not too bad, but we don’t want it to get worse) , also because she cannot preen as well since she cannot see in that one eye. Staying in the coop takes a toll on her physical, as well...

We have a black Australorp hen who gets bullied. The bullying got better over time so we didn’t think much of it anymore. Around 2 weeks ago we saw one of her eyes was closed, I believe on her right side. One of her eyes was closed like this before and we put ointment using a Q tip and it...

It’s still red and a little swollen but it’s fully open now. Her wing looks almost completely healed. We separated her inside. But for some reason she won’t eat. All she wants Is to be with her friends Even though they bully her. Today we bought her outside but she still wasn’t eating. I don’t...

I have a black australorp hen who is laying who recently stopped as she had trouble walking. (Different hen from previous posts) Basically, her wing couldn’t close in properly and as a result whenever walking she would trip over it. We assumed this was bullying from our ISA Browns who love to...

I’m in New York. I don’t have a vet or university extension. She is doing better today, but still cannot fully walk. Now she can at least kind of walk and shuffle, but one leg is still a little weird. She eats and drinks. We assume it is vitamin deficiency. Is avian flu common in NY?

Thank you! I will try it!

She’s drinking pretty well, and eating a little. Do you know why she can’t maintain balance? 2 days ago she wasn’t like this and we put her back in the coop and now shes like this.

I don’t think her keel bone is juttted out a lot. She did drink some electrolytes by her self, and ate some egg and spinach and grit. The only thing concerning right now is her poop and why she can’t keep balance at all. If she sits, she leans to the side and eventually toppled over. She can’t...

Update: She is Still the same, just sitting down in her cage. Someone please answer!

I have a black Australorp hen (6-7 months) who has been sick for a while, but we thought was getting better. Her story is basically that she gets bullied a lot by the other chickens to the point she can’t eat. If you see my last thread, you can see how she was recently and what her poop looked...

Would she stop laying eggs? Because of a damaged ovary?

Looks like a black australorp. I’m not too good with breeds. I would say Jersey giant but the feet don’t look yellow.

Like in any pecking order, there are ones lower than others. I’ve seen my 1 year old (laying) ISA Brown mating the hens that she bullies. And I mean mating, not getting on top. Wings covered, hen squatted on the ground, the trembling/shaking and ruffling of feathers after. Is it common to see...

She pooped this. Does this look like poop of those with coccidiosis or internal parasites?

anyone? Im so confused. She doesn’t even want to eat or drink now. She only ate a little bit of hard boiled egg.

Here is a video of her, I can’t tell if her breathing is off. Please watch The whole thing. Sorry for background noise. Sometimes, she slightly opens her mouth and breathes heavily it looks like, or is this just normal?

What kind of antibiotic can chicken eat. I don’t think I ever administered antibiotics before. In her water, she has some probiotics. Is this the same thing?

It’s been a while since we wormed the flock. This is what her poop looks like. We assume it’s greenish because of the spinach she ate. Before it was mostly just liquid, but now there is solid.
