    Bumblefoot and doxycycline

    More like 30 minutes. Maybe, it certainly isn't getting worse. Today was the first day I was able to pull at the black scab.

    Bumblefoot and doxycycline

    Hello, I am treating a goose with bumblefoot. I have been soaking her foot twice a day. I don't want to cut into her foot because I don't think the infection is very bad. I did get some of it out today but I'm having a terrible time keeping her foot bandaged. I plan on soaking her some more...

    Abandoned peahen in my lawn

    What do I do for an abandoned peahen? I believe she was dumped a few days ago at the bottom of my lane. She has made her way up to my house. I'm guessing she hears my other birds. I do not have peacocks and I'm not familiar with them. She doesn't belong to my neighbors and I often get abandoned...

    Sick goose

    I am wondering if my goose had an impacted or sour crop. I just had an old chicken die from it. I hope your goose gets better!

    Sick goose

    She did not make it sadly. I'm not sure what she had or why. She was loved. None of my other birds are sick. Thank you for your help!

    Sick goose

    She is eating a little and spunked up as well. Now I'm concerned about her eyes. Maybe it's just a symptom of a sick goose?

    Sick goose

    I cannot get a hold of the Metronidazole but I do have doxycycline. I was wondering if you knew if that would work in the same way? Maybe it isn't necessary. I have her on tylan (in her water. I'm home alone with my baby so I'm not confident injecting her) and will be worming her in a few hours...

    Sick goose

    I do have a scale. I don't have safe guard but I can get it tomorrow evening and maybe the metronidazole at tractor supply. I guess I will give her tylosin 500 in the morning. Do you know the application rate for these antibiotics? I'm not sure where to get activated charcoal. Thank you for...

    Sick goose

    I think she has been like this for two days. Maybe 3. Her droppings are runny, green and clear. She drinks a lot of water. Her beak is paler than normal. I thought her rear end looked different. That's why I thought she might be egg bound but she hasn't laid eggs in almost 2 months

    Sick goose

    I just checked her. I don't feel any hard lumps but I hear the gas sounds. If she has a gassy intestine what should I do for her? Can I still worm her and give her tylosin?

    Sick goose

    Hello, My white Chinese goose is lethargic. She doesn't like to lay down and just hangs in the pool. She doesn't have interest in food except for peas. I am giving her diatomaceous earth. I'm not sure what is wrong but she is not her normal active self. The other birds are fine. We have had a...

    Will foxes and other predators dig under my electric fence?

    Hello, I want to get a premier one electric fence to do rotational grazing for my chickens, ducks and geese. I have many foxes in my area, but they leave my permanent run alone because it's electrified, has a predator apron and motion detector lights. Will foxes dig under a movable electric...

    Bumble foot?

    Yep! He has two different types of boots coming this week so he should be a happy duck soon. He seems to be healing well!

    Bumble foot?

    Thank you for the article. I think I cut into his foot too soon and should have continued with just soaking his foot. I used rubbing alcohol to clean my tools and the foot before I cut. He has triple antibiotic on his foot and I also used hydrogen peroxide and blu-kote. The wound looks like it...

    Bumble foot?

    I cut the foot and took the scab away but I don't see any plug or puss. I'm I doing something wrong?
