Hello all,
My old quail hen, Big Mama, has developed something that looks like canker, but in her nostril. One nostril looked enlarged today, so I took her out and gave it a good look. It was full of cheesy looking white stuff, no odor. I managed to dig it all out, at least what I could see...
hey everyone, i have posted about these ducklings but i might have posted about the wrong symptoms and only one of them had it. So they are about a week old, two of them i haven't had as long as one as the lone one had lost a sibling. the sibling that died was a bit lethargic but not overly...

Hi everyone, I am hoping for some
Advice. My 4 silkes are 15 weeks old and this is my first time raising chickens so there’s a lot of trial and error happening lol. So, we went out of town for Thanksgiving, and of course the night we left it rained for the first time since they’ve been outside...
