Feathers are getting more scoured and separated. I don’t know what to do. Does anyone know if I shouldn’t keep giving her the cocci meds? I got ratios from a thread here which said 1-3 days, 1-2 times a day. I’ve given them 4 doses over the last 3 days. No more blood in poop. 1 is looking more...
Hello. I’ve read some of the other posts about this but not sure if this is cocci. I found blood in the poop as you can see in photo, one morning. I’ve administered the medicine orally. I’ve not seen blood in the poo again. The birds feathers are getting all separated which I saw somewhere else...
Thank you for the reassurance. Maybe I should’ve explained this is after cutting and healing for over a week. It’s just that it’s healing looking exactly the same as before we cut it open. I’m concerned once I take the bandages off it will just be the same. I suppose like you say soaking could...
Hello, thanks for all your help to date! My Chicken has two round brown red scabs on the bottom of her foot. I’ve taken the top off however there’s no yellow core to squeeze out. I’ve pushed and looked and nothing really comes out. Looking on the top of her foot, I can actually see some yellow...
Thank you. Acting normal and active. I just saw this today. Yesterday it was not there. She is moulting so a little slower. Not laid an egg in 4-5 days now.
Hello,
I have a chicken who is moulting, but I’ve just noticed this poop dangle and her poop is white at the moment. Do I cut this off? Is she sick? She’s acting fine and eating ok. See photos.
Thank you!!
Thanks. I’ll check her crop again. She’s stopped eating the bedding. When I checked the crop last time it was empty in the morning.
Yes she’s been off antibiotics for a few weeks now.
Poop is daily like that and not infrequent. It is new that it is like that yes. Very watery.
I wonder if you can please help with dosing of this probiotic. It says 0.5 g/L after the chick is 24 days old. Obviously they are much older. 0.5 g is 1/10 of a teaspoon per litre. it’s practically nothing! Do you have any guidance?
Ok thanks. She’s not eating regularly. She eats some of the chicken pellets but mostly wants the food I give her - sardines, cooked vegetables, soaked bread, oatmeal. I don’t feed her separately but try to a bit, so she gets some. She prefers to eat with the others. 1 is still pecking her which...
Update: Thank you. She is doing a lot better and I was so happy. Stopped wobbly and feet clearing up. Now she has very wet poo and is slowly down again. She never got back to 100 but was much better. I’ve attached 2 photos of her poop. I’m worried again. I’ve not treated her bumble as I wanted...
Also she is eating a fair bit of the nest straw! I’ve never seen this and seems like a stress response and not good for her I’m sure. Have you seen this?
When I go to catch her she runs so has some life in her. She is sleeping up pretty high. She can walk up there, I’ve not seen her do it, I lift her up at night when I’m there. I cover her at night to keep her warm.
Thank you. She’s still going. Wobbles / falls backward more but also side to side at times. She’s up each day and eating some food I give her such as soaked pellets, sardines, seems to be a little off the eggs I was feeding her. She drinks when i hold the bowl up to her. She’s been on 5 days of...
