    HELP! Gosling with Infected feather follicle?

    I feel like my goslings are falling apart with my frequent post. But today I noticed my 7 week old Chinese gosling’s wing was red and swollen. Last week I treated him for Angel wing and this was not present at the time, and I haven’t noticed it until now so I believe this is new. The feathers...

    I accidentally ripped all her tail feathers out!!!

    My olive egger, Periwinkle, was in the trees and we’re about to have a heavy snow. When I tried to grab her she jumped down and I ended up ripping out a fist full of tail feathers. I read there are blood feathers back there but it’s very dark to tell if she’s going to bleed. Her rump is bare now...

    Broken blood feather advice

    One of my ladies somehow broke a blood feather on her tail. It seems like she keeps opening the blood clot that forms while preening (there are many new feathers coming in around it so she’s back there a lot) and it bleeds. I’m not real comfortable pulling it and it seems the advice on pulling...

    Pin/Blood Feather Fell Out?

    Hi everyone. We had just taken our duck out of his bath and he flapped his wings a bit, and this developing feather fell to the ground. There was blood at the tip of it, but we can’t find where it came from on his body, since he doesn’t seem to be bleeding from wherever it fell out. There was...
