Thanks! So I actually just got her in to a vet yesterday and the vet said she’s full of yeast. Apparently it started growing in the hay. So she’s got a yeast infection in her lungs and that’s why she’s gasping. The vet gave me some medicine for her and I’m hoping she’ll get better soon. Hope you...
Ok that’s great! A roof on the run sounds like a good idea. And I should have clarified, I use this thing called a cozy coop heater. It’s just a small panel that heats up. I don’t think it does much but thought it would work better in a smaller coop. Thanks for the reply!
Hello’s everyone! Not sure I posted under the right forum but I didn’t know that else to use. So I have ducks, chickens, bantam ducks, bantam chickens and geese and I of course want more. I am thinking I might get some bantam frizzle chickens next year, maybe eight or so. I plan on building them...
So this morning they are the same. It’s not getting any better but not any worse. The vetRx is clearly not helping and I have no idea what to do or what to treat them with. Help would be very appreciated!
Hello everyone and happy Sunday! So I have a 5 month old call hen and about three days ago she started gasping for air. I’ve had this happen before and usually I just give some vetRx and it clears up over night but this has been going on for three days now. And just last night I noticed one of...
She’s so pretty! I have three drakes, a fawn runner, black Swedish and a golden 300. I’m thinking I’ll breed her with the runner. Do you have any pics of her babies?
Hello everyone! So I have a crested duck and she just started laying. I am wanting to breed her later in the fall but she is my only crested duck and I’m wondering if some of her babies will be crested? Both her parents carried the crested gene but did not show it. All of the ducklings they have...
Hey everyone! So it’s the weekend and I’m free! I want draw something but I can’t think of what to draw so here I am! I will try to draw your birds! I’ve done a few of these drawing posts before and usually I just do little doodles but this time I’m going to try to be more realistic. (Apologies...
Hello everyone! So about 3 days ago my runner hen got hurt and is limping really bad. She hasn’t put hardly any weight on her leg and is kinda hobbling around. She is still eating and drinking normally and is swimming sometimes. I am assuming she was hurt by my goose while a drake was trying to...
Welcome to BYC! It’s just dry. My ducks get this in dry weather or if they do not have access to water they can swim in. Just keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn’t get infected. He’ll be alright!
