    Egg Bound?

    Just an update for anyone who has something similar happen in the future - she's still trucking along! Eating, drinking, still a hard abdomen, she poops, hasn't layed since all this started. I've got her a crop bra coming in the mail today, hoping that will assist with crop issues and help food...

    Egg Bound?

    Did you happen to have crop issues as well? Large, slow draining crop? Her's is full pretty much constantly

    Egg Bound?

    Might make a new post just for some more traction - so her abdomen is still hard, crop very full, she does poop. Appetite is normal, walking hasn't changed (walks with a slight limp, but she can move). I did a round of monistat 7 for a week because I was thinking sour crop/impacted crop. She...

    Egg Bound?

    Think we're dealing with sour crop! Poor girl can't catch a break. I'm assuming the two are related somehow, she's never had any crop issues in the past either. Very large, squishy crop, she does poop. I've got her in a crate in the coop so she can stay with her friend. ACV water and miconazole...

    Egg Bound?

    Update - So her crop is FULL, which has me worried about sour crop/not getting enough nutrients. I'm guessing the mass/EYP is so large it's inhibiting her digestion. She's adjusting it a ton too with snake-like head movements. Gets around fine even though she walks with a limp/very slightly...

    Egg Bound?

    Just as an update, no improvements at all but she's super lively, eats, drinks, and moves around.

    Egg Bound?

    Thank you! Feels good to hear that from someone else since I feel like I'm not doing everything I can do, but I don't believe there's anything left to do at the same time. She does roost somehow! (I made a ramp so they can walk to the roost a long time ago for Gretchen, since the dog attack...

    Egg Bound?

    So no improvements, not sure what to do next. Her appetite is awesome but her walk is worse.

    Egg Bound?

    Thank you for the help! You helped me with the Buff Brahma in the pic a few years ago too! Gretchen got attacked by a dog and was limping/not eating. Doing awesome now, she made a full recovery :) I'll give her some more calcium today, I crushed up a tablet yesterday and mixed it with a little...

    Egg Bound?

    Gave her a calcium pill today, no improvement yet. Eats and drinks fine, crop is not empty in the mornings, diarrhea. Drinks her vitamin water thankfully. Hobbling more today when she walks but just as active as usual, same slight penguin stance/tail is down. No egg or attempt to lay that I...

    Egg Bound?

    Howdy guys! I have a maybe 2 year old Copper Maran with a hard abdomen. It feels like possibly two eggs? One on the side, closer to her leg and one closer to the middle. Her appetite is great, but crop is full in the mornings and she has diarrhea, specifically green colored. I've taken her...

    Bubbling Eyes

    Got another question for ya! So she still has bubbly eyes on some days/not continuously either throughout the day. I feel like we didn't give her enough LA-200 for her size, she's a buff brahma... I'm thinking we should dose her again but I also don't want to overdo the antibiotics. Any idea...

    Bubbling Eyes

    Got a question for ya! I gave her the day one and day three dose of LA-200, via injection. Eyes are better, no bubbling. I was wondering about probiotics? I have probiotics i could add to the water, should I do that now or wait until, say day 7?

    Bubbling Eyes

    Thanks! I gave her Terramycin for tonight and I'm picking up syringes and needles tomorrow so I can inject instead. I should treat the whole flock at the same time, right? The dosage I've found is 1cc per 5 lbs, inject IM once, then on day 3 inject again. By day 7 they should hopefully stop...

    Bubbling Eyes

    Wanting to know the oral dosage for Liquamycin/LA-200 - just found one of my hens with bubbly eyes. I also have Terramycin which I'll use tonight as I'm sure it'll take awhile to get an answer. I don't have any needles on hand or I'd give her a shot. Thanks!

    Pullet Stumbling

    How has the St. John's Wort been going? I've had my girl on Lysine for 2 days now, no changes. Eating and drinking really well, but no toe movement. She can just move her legs at the hip. I'd say breathing is better though

    Pullet Stumbling

    I've seen that one mentioned! Let me know how it goes! I don't have any on hand but I do have L-Lysine so I was going to try that but now she's not wanting to drink/eat

    Pullet Stumbling

    No others with symptoms, I just have 2 other pullets that I brought home with this girl and then my Buff Brahma from my first flock. I think this girl is going down, I'm not seeing much light in her eyes as of this morning

    Pullet Stumbling

    I feel the exact same way... I've put so much energy and care into having a flock and it just always ends badly. I got this girl to replace my first flock that was killed by dogs but it seriously feels like it's been problem after problem. My girl is doing worse after this weekend, maybe because...
