butt

Hi, I noticed my pet duck’s butt is sticking out. Anyone know why? She also seems down (a bit upset) she’s not as active or quacking like she normally is. She’s still eating and drinking and walking here and there. Her butt just got very dirty as she’s been outside with the mud free ranging. But...

I have an emergency situation on my hands with my flock re: poopy butts. Due to a massive family emergency, I have been out of town for most of the last 6 weeks - usually gone for several days, home for one or two, gone again. When I returned home this weekend, after a 9 day absence, I found...

Hi there, I'm on high alert for pasty butt and my little porcelain d'uccle has the messiest bottom of the bunch. Her vent also sticks out a bit. I don't want to keep rubbing (gently with warm paper towels) or stressing her out more than I need to. This was after cutting some fuzz and applying a...

Hi there, a couple days ago I noticed that my year old chicken's butt became swollen, red and bloody. It looks like part of her stomach is coming out of her butt. Also, she's been pooping yellow goo. She's the lowest on the pecking order due to her legs being sprained, I don't know if that's...

Hello, New to the chicken world and lacking in appropriate chicken terminology, so I apologize in advance. We have a very pretty silver laced Wyandotte hen, 22 weeks, and she has been extra loud this week (I thought it was from the heat, high 80s/90s), but then the past few days I saw what...

Hey guys. So, for the past 4 days I noticed my one hens pouch is big and feels a little solid. She also walks slower but when she runs she's pretty fast. She eats normal, and still chases treats, and even pecks at the others still. I thought she could be egg bound so I did the egg bound soak...

Hi! This is my first post on byc. I have a days-old female appezeller chick I'm a little worried about. I bought her from Freehling Farms in Kittaning PA two days ago. She had a little bit of poop stuck on her vent, but I gently cleaned it off. There was also a trace amount of dried blood the...

A couple days ago we rescued a goat who is living in horrible conditions. We noticed that her butt was really red, swollen and bleeding. She also has an utter that is severely swollen and almost touching the ground. The previous owner said they never milked her. We have had all kinds of animals...

-warning very gross- hi! I noticed that my chickens had very poopy butts. they have been getting a few extra fruit treats lately so there poops have been a lot runn ier. anyway when I was bathing them today I saw that one of my chickens butts looked like this. pretty sure that’s not...

Anyone know what this maybe and how I can treat it, I’m suspecting something along mites but the weather is getting nicer so that might have something to do with it too? She hasn’t lost an appetite and her egg laying is normal, the vent isn’t blocked and seems normal as well as her poop.

Anyway to prevent baby chicks from getting pasty butt? I was going to get some chicks about a week old but I realized a lot of them that young seem to get it so I guess I'll wait and get some older.

Just had a baby quail hatch out and it was taking a long time. External pip in pm on day 16, hatched early day 18. It looks like it's anus was stuck to the shell or too dry and ripped out out him. He now has two "butt cheeks" sticking out of him. No blood. Any suggestions? Attached pictures.

Over the last few weeks, I've noticed my chicken's comb turning purple. Some days it's not very noticeable and other days it is. Today it was very purple. What does this mean? I've noticed she has been drinking a lot when I let her out the last couple of days. I'm starting to wonder if maybe...

What is the average cost at the vet for a chicken checkup?

My chicken the one with a purple comb has had a dirty vent recently and it's starting to get worse to where a lot is sticking. Any advice to fix that and get her tail looking clean again? It's stuck to her tail feathers pretty bad. Also what could be the cause of a purple comb?

I thought y'all were a little off when talking about trimming chicken butt fluff. Well, I joined you. Had a light red hen that was accumulating quite the poop ball. After a week, it hadn't been shed and I'll blame the cold weather. Finally christened a pair of scissors the poopy butt ball...

He was born with hunch back then when he got to be 4 Mo old his neck got shorter and legs got longer lol. He has always had what I call "chicken butt". He is a bit deformed and has some sort of crusstation on his butt. Lots of pin feathers and redness. I try to take care of him but was...

I treated both hens affected for vent gleet and while I was doing that I saw small white balls at the base of feathers on their bums. Any idea what that is?
