Not sure if you are still reading this...I haven't been on this site for years. It depends on the wound... and I work with a lot of different animals so it's kinda hard to narrow it down. But for bumblefoootI use a tincture of DMSO Banamine and Baytril. For basic wound care I clean with a very...

You gotta sneak that stuff up on them at night! lol

You are very lucky! That was a gnarly wound. Happy she is eating well! (and that is a good amount for a "stationary" chicken). I hope you got it put back together with at least butterfly bandages. I couldn't go through all the pages for history/process.

Call me lucky but the Vet where I learned the most....she gave big discounts to people bringing in their poultry....she was so glad they'd pay anything at all... there are some very special vets out there. One day I walked in for work and shehad two chickens a duck and a goose filling the...

I was surprised that BYC just advertised an article that said wait a month to give them sticks.... I've found theylike to practice standing on them MUCH younger....and it is really good for them to excersise early. As to the suggestion of tying the legs together, there are some great images...

It's an awful mistake...But you aren't alone. I've had three hens die from overheating (we suddenly had a twmp change from 60 a day to 110) and I couldn't get home to spray them down. Just look at how many people learned from your mistake.... so more birds will be saved in the future.

get it out of there! I'm sure you already have but once it's in their system you can't even give them CPR because of the air sac biology of their lungs. (This is why they used canaries in coalmines....they would ie first and they knew they had to get out. Methane in this case usually but same...

I was totally shocked to hear thAt they make non-stick lightbulbs UUGGHH!! PFTE is a terrible killer. I went and bought the "Safe" pocelainpnon-stick pans when a guy renting a room from me lost it when I said no-nonstick pans....and I even smell something coming off them. SO I don't allow any of...

not gapeworm...

My three year old chicken is making huge noises on every breath in and out interrupted only occasionally by a high pitched squeak/scream. She was perched in her coop. I had a mysterious death a few days ago. I have metacam and other various meds. There are no outside injuries she has a full crop...

I'm glad you said this about the eyees because the Red Goldens that I have all have the same eye coloring and they are now most definitely two males and a female :/ so now I am looking to rehome tow males...

I saw a beard on one... but I am now convinced all six are Toms... UGGH!!!

Too much protein, I understand angel wing... but mine came out of the egg like that!? they already had feathers growing and were twisted... andy ansers for that ? Thanks (Bourbon and Blue Slate)

These Roos are this years hatch and are very sweet. THe Australorp is in charge for now but Barred ROck just went through a growth spurt and is one of the larger roosters I've seen. I'll post pics tomorrow. In the Los Angeles/ Ventura area

I bought six Turkey poults... all was sine the poof go the eyeballs. Two of them have it... maybe at least the Oxytetracylcline has helped keep the others from contracting it. They were staying the same until this morning and the Grey Slate eye is practically shut (it was sealed this am)...

are you sure it needs to be amputated? did you take it to an avian vet? IDK if you want to pay to pin it if it is a compound fracture but I know a lot about broken bones in birds and if it isn't compound you can splint it and put the chicken in a sling to take the weight off for a bit until it...

Ok there is definitely a second Poult with it now. These are pets. I have them both now on Baytril. I am curious if this is a contagious issue and should I keep them separate from the others. I also have them in a flight cage with quail which I'd prefer to keep healthy. Or is this just something...

Ok. Thank you. This makes total sense. I'll add the Baytril. I almost gave it last night. Thank you so much!

Sorry here's the pic

I am new to Turkeys... today this little guy had runny eyes and swollen under the eyes. The right side is much worse and when I just went to medicate the eye was shut. I threw everything at it Neomycin eye ointment in the eye, benadryl cream around the eye and oral metacam. When I went to put...
