She actually had bumblefoot last year and we got that cleared up fairly quickly. I checked her a few weeks ago for it again but I'll re examine her tonight for it. Thank you 🙂

Hi there, my largest hen is a mystic marans, 2 years old. Her comb is still very red has become flopped over and discolored a darker color on the tips and she has stopped laying the last 2 months or so. She isn't walking funny but something is off about her. She seems to have less interest in...

Yes I will! I was just shocked, she is a very sweet chicken so that makes her a target at times

Thank you! I have some Vetirycin and will try this :)

Hi there. This evening I noticed one of my hens has a chunk missing from her nostril on one side. It is fairly dirty as you can see but it doesn't appear infected or weeping. I think another hen probably did it to her. Should I be worried about this injury? And that part will probably not regrow?

I'm very sorry to hear that. You tried the best you could and that is what matters. I have 5 hens and lost one last August very quickly before I could even discern a plan of action. I've been dealing with a terrible cyst or granuloma on my old quaker parrot's under eye and was looking over posts...

What was the outcome for your hen?

He is still not completely better. Still having nasal discharge on one side that is thick and clear but runny at times but the quantity has reduced at least. His appetite is good so I keep on with remedies. I'm putting terramycin ointment on his eyes once a day and around the bad nostril because...

I bet your birds are a lot of fun 🧡 and thanks again ♥️

Parrots can taste way more or appreciate it? Lol! I've been sprinkling bird probiotic on a piece of boiled egg white or moistened lettuce. Also some stuff called Thrive sick bird formula. It looks like vitamins basically. I'm spraying Vetirycin into his nose and also swabing the outside with...

Hi there, I am a chicken owner of 5 hens, I lost one of my girls very quickly the end of last month but I'm here today because I'm a little desperate and never receive helpful advice on treatment of parrots on other forums. BYC has so many people not afraid to suggest a medicine or remedy. I...

Good morning, her crop feels empty. I added a tbsp of unsulphured molasses to her drinking water last night and she was drinking even more. She looks about the same this morning so far.

My hen is not eating anything now but is drinking ok, I've added Baytril to her water. At what point does she need force fed? I'm really scared about this!

Thank you 🧡

I'm sorry you've lost so many of your sweet chickens 💔 what kind of antibiotic did you give them? I have 1 hen that is sick right now and I'm very stressed trying to see what I can use.

Hi everyone, one of my 6 hens has been acting bad for about a week and I attributed it to a hard molt hitting her but yesterday she seemed to be disconnected from everything around her. I brought her in last night and have her crated. She is drinking water with VetRX mixed with DuraStat. Her...

You're saying I'm giving an eggcessive 😉 amount of scratch, I'll try the aspirin and cut them back to half cup, thanks again!

Thank you for the quick reply! Yes the whole flock (6 hens) eat an organic commercial feed. They get 1 cup of scratch grains a day and about 2 hours free range daily. Their run is fairly large, about 10ft wide x 20ft long. She doesn't seem overweight. The closest avian vet to me is 60 miles away...

Hi everyone, I'm back about my black copper marans hen, she's probably every bit of 9-10lbs. She's been limping some again and will lose her balance on one side and will stick her wing out to balance. I picked her up yesterday and her feet are fine but I heard a loud pop from her left hip. I'm...

Thank you. Yeah if she is still limping as bad tomorrow she's coming into the house in a little dog crate.
