Hi, today I noticed that my rooster has reddish legs. It’s visible from underneath, between the toes, and maybe slightly on top in some places. He is an Ameraucana rooster and he will be one year old at the beginning of May.
I know there could be several reasons for this — do you have any...
All the hens that had a sign of an enlarged crop (including the hen in the photo, where it is most visible) have not had access to food for 48 hours. This morning, I checked how they were doing. With two of them, it seems better—I’m not even sure if they still have it. I guess I’ll try feeling...
I feed them a layer hen mash. It’s ground more finely. I believe it should contain ground limestone grit as well. Unfortunately, my mother gave the hens soaked bread in milk (I’ve already talked to her about this, and it won’t happen again).
Yesterday, one of the girls vomited a bit of...
Thank you so much for your advice; I really appreciate it. I’m sorry that you’re going through the same problem! I hope your rooster will be okay!
Unfortunately, I can’t get miconazole in my country. It’s only available as a vaginal tablet combined with metronidazole, and it’s...
Hello, i need an advice.
( I am sorry for my english, I am not native speaker, obviously 😀)
Today I noticed that one of my hens has enlarged crop. To be honest it was shock for me because it´s huge! She is one year old.
Her comb is normal, she is not lethargic. Her crop does not feel hard to...
Thanks. I think the same. Unfortunately in europe are Ameraucanas rare. I will keep one roo then. What do you think about this one? Malfoy is the biggest. He has nice red comb.
I asked, but they gave me sulfa antibiotics. the vet told me to use antibiotics for three days and then disinfect everything, but honestly I read some studies and it is very difficult to get rid of coccidia.😦
My vet recommend use Sodium hypochlorite. I hope it will work!
As a Czech, thank you...
Thank you for you advice!
Unfortunately we dont have Corid in Czechia. We have Sulfadimidinum natricum, Emanox ( but this is just based on herbs), I will call my vet, I hope he can help me. preparations against coccidiosis are mostly only preventive here :/
Hello! One week ago I bought one week old ameracuana and araucana baby chickens.
Today I noticed liquidy stool with a little bit blood. Unfortunately one chicken died. The woman I bought the chicken from said it was a side effect of the live vaccine she said I should add one tablespoon...
Hello,
When I was taking photo of my chicken feet (she has scaly mites) I saw that she has big spurs ( I never noticed that she has them).
Also she has so much bigger wattles and comb than before, the color is so much brighter too!
I dont know what is happening here? Do you have any idea what...
