    My chicken has been sick for a week and it's pale

    Hi, I have a bantam-breed chicken. He's only 9 months old, and his appearance started to get pale when a typhoon hit our country. My guess is that my chicken is anemic, so I treated it with vitamin + iron capsule, yet days after, it's still pale and starting to lose its appetite. Her poop is...

    Help…marks on chickens comb

    Hi, I’ve recently seen some black dots on my chicken. I’ve attached the images below. Is it fowl pox or are they pecking at eachother? Should I be concerned? They aren’t showing any behavior of being sick, but it started small and is spreading. Also another chicken has one as well, but smaller

    Hello everyone! Can someone please help me to understand what is going on with one of my sweet chickens? She stayed in her nesting box most of the day, so I placed food next to her so she would eat something. Then she came out, ate a little bit more, and would squawk, as if she was in pain. Is...

    Chickens Butt Infested In Maggots.

    I have a hen covered in maggots. They are everywhere on her butt. I’ve bathed her once in a tub full of fly spray and water. Then another time in water and vinegar. It seems like she has a ball of raw flesh coming out her behind. There are still a good bit of maggots on her butt. What do I do...

    Hen is extremely pale, lethargic; not eating or leaving coop

    I have 9 hens (around 4 years old), and recently I noticed one of them, Ruby, isn't acting like herself. She started molting the other week when it was in the 80's here, and right now it's been in the upper 40's, so I imagine that's quite a sudden change for her to adapt to, given she doesn't...

    Betty Jo is sick! Update in comments

    Today, I went to feed my hen Betty Jo and something is wrong. I'm thinking maybe someone fed her something because her coop and run are next to the privacy fence and it would probably be easy for someone just to throw something over it. She's very lethargic, I had to force her to drink water and...

    Chicken "cold" runny nose etc

    I just got home from work tonight (just before midnight) and noticed our younger Easter Egger had some clear discharge coming out of her nose. She also sounded a little "croupy" if that makes any sense. It's substantially colder tonight than it has been all summer. All of the other birds look...
