Anyone know if there’s a vaccine for this thing available? Internet search has more or less failed me, various sites say there is a vaccine for some strains, but I can’t find where to find it either.
I’d ask a vet but the only one I know that’s decent isn’t hardly available and the others are...
Hi all, so I took my little Joey (Embden x something goose) to the vet who suggested avian flu or something viral might be what's wrong with him.
Does anyone have any experience with avian flu in geese? My goose has some symptoms, but not symptoms that I would think are common. He hasn't been...
Hey y’all,
I recently read an article by WIRED that stated that Avian Flu was back in the US and actively infecting waterfowl and wild birds. I’ve dreaded the day it came back, since backyard flocks are slaughtered if it’s transmitted to humans.
I’d like to know how y’all are preventing your...
I just saw this and wanted to share so people are aware

Hello,
Over the past 5 days Two of my hens (aged 2 and 3) both have watery green poo, are not eating (they have very small, almost empty crops). They have both lost 70 grams or so over the past week
The 3 year old went to the vet who said that she had a slight raspy ness in her lungs but ...
Today i went out to collect eggs in my chicken house and my rooster crowed at me. Usually when he does, its the perfect "Cock-A-Doodle Dooooo", but today when i went in there, it sounded raspy and in a lower pitch. So of course i went back into my house and googled a million things to see what...
Hey guys..
Another silly post from me! I was wondering if you can catch bird flu from chickens??
I recently hatched a chick but she was the only one out of twelve so we bought her another chick so she wouldn't be lonely, the new chick is a good couple of weeks older but they're very close...
