This flock of ours just gives us eggs, fertilizer, and company 🙂 I’ll keep in mind looking for a place that breeds for good temperament and stay away from game roosters! Thank you so much ☺️
I don’t think he his, Hermes died of sour-crop and no one else is acting off. I check on him often and he isn’t suffering from anything constant psychically except that he’s lost a bit weight. He still eats his treats and comes to hang out with me when I go out there. He also will eat his normal...
Hi yall!
I was hoping I could get some help on picking out some different rooster breeds to choose from!
to make a long story short my very Alpha-Big-Boss Barred Rock Rooster, Doc, lost his brood-mate, Hermes. Hermes was a Welsummer rooster who was a little flighty and wasn’t super interested...
Thank you so much ❤️ All the pictures and diagrams I’ve seen made it look like that wasn’t something that could happen. I’ll make sure to keep this in mind next time I have to give my babies medicine!
Yes, (if I’m understanding what your asking) I didn’t push it down her throat though I just held her beak open and put it closer to the start of her beak so she wouldn’t spit it out again. Is that what got her?
Hi everyone!
I want to start by saying this is probably the wrong place to put this ask but I really don’t know where else to put it I don’t use this very much but I couldn’t find any categories related to chicken death. I’m really sorry if this is in the completely wrong discussion zone...
Just a Little update for everyone
I took her to the vet this morning, I wasn’t going to but she kept shaking and looked like she was in a bunch of pain so I took her. They think she has gout though the vet is going to talk with another vet he knows who only sees chickens to see what he thinks...
She’s drank the sugar water and his trying to stand but she’s sitting on her butt with her legs straight out so she can’t when I stand her up myself she falls down. I know she can move because I’ve placed her on one end of the brooder and then I had to leave the room and when I came back she was...
I gave her the water and she’s trying to stand but isn’t able to get up on her own that much without assistance her leg is going outwards and forwards while the other one is just forwards. Im feeling around now how should it feel?
I’m about to trim the feathers away from her eyes and her siblings’ eyes, I can’t find any tablets only gels. When I eventually find tablets how should I give her the Vitamin E and B-Complex?
I thought about that though I’m not sure what a dislocated chicken leg looks like I’ll look up some pictures. Her legs keep slipping forward no matter what surface she’s on
She can move her legs and the only time her toes get curled is when she almost falls and curls them while she’s trying to sit up. Other then her leg she’s showing no signs of illness. Since I’ve posted this she’s also falling down less and is able to mostly keep her balance.
