While I was soaking her feet tonight,she pooped.No worms.Don't see any lice or mites on her.She takes dust baths often. I will look her over again when I soak her feet tomorrow. Is there any feed that may be higher in calories that I could mix in her feed?
If it wasn't for this site, I don't know what would do.Each time I have a question about my feathered babies this is the place I turn to.I had a rooster that passed last fall.He was at our best guess between 9-10 years of age.Broke my heart.He was the coolest dude ever.Since then I have tried...
I soaked her foot each night for about 15 minutes with Tricideneo and it worked! She still as a "little bump" on the top of her foot by one toe nail,but she is so much better! Now I am dealing with Scaly leg mites on my other hen.UGH! Silkies are wonderful birds,but very fragile.Thank you all...
My little hattie's foot is swollen,so I am sure it's full of infection.If it doesn't get better with us treating it, I am going to all my local vet so see if there is anything he can do.I wish we had some vets in the area that knew more about birds.
