    Feather deformity

    I’ve just been given this pullet, she hasn’t grown since 12 weeks old. She hatched the first week of May so is now 22 weeks old and weighs 750g. Unknown breed. However the person my friend got her off has silkies, pekins and frizzles. Is this shredder gene or double frizzle or something...

    Fluorescent green poo?

    What would cause this colour? All acting normal. No recent meds, no major diet change, only new thing I’ve seen them eat was some water milfoil (Australian native Myriophyllum crispatum) from the turtle pond.

    Suspected vitamin deficiency in Muscovy - too far gone to help?

    I’ll preface this by saying I know next to nothing about ducks. I know chooks, and I know they can’t eat the same food as them. Also I’m referring to this duck as a girl, but please correct me if I’m wrong. My friend asked me to take this duck for dog food because she can’t walk. Apparently...

    Hen eye discharge, need diagnosis

    I woke up to this hen’s eye looking like this. She has no other symptoms. I posted earlier this week about my 18 week old pullets sneezing, and started everyone on oxytetracyine. I have contacted authorities again but was told it’s unlikely to be avian influenza so they won’t come out. I do...

    Sneezing for 3 days then dead with no other symptoms.

    Thank you, I think I got it uploaded. I did check for mould and couldn’t find any. As far as I’m aware there’s nothing poisonous or venomous in/near my yard

    Sneezing for 3 days then dead with no other symptoms.

    Hi all, This morning I woke to find one of my pullets (hatched 5th November) in death throes. She had started sneezing sporadically three days ago, but had no other symptoms. Her eyes were clear, face normal, eating and drinking and running around fine. She and the rest of the clutch aren’t at...

    Chicken booties template

    Hi all, I’m wanting to make some boots for my tiny pekin. She’s getting over a severe case of scaly leg & bumblefoot (I got her with these conditions last week). I’ve found the little chicken booties online but no one in my country sells or makes them. I could buy them from overseas, but the...

    Maybe she’s born with it…..

    This chick I hatched (I’ve named her maybelline), has a black line behind each eye. I thought it was dirt at first, but it’s bilaterally symmetrical. Anyone know if it’s something that warrants investigation, or is it just a weird feather marking?

    No depth perception or walking after cat attack

    Hi all, I had a cat break into my coop on Thursday morning. I lost 3 girls, one was untouched, and 3 injured. One of the injured girls is alright now, but two are still not good. Nugget: 2yo bantam mutt. Initially couldn’t stand, Friday couldn’t weight bear on right leg, today she can stand...
