My chicken ginger looks to be egg bound and hasn't layer anything in 2 days I've been checking on her but today here health declined severely and now she is gasping for air. I feel like I've tried everything to help her pass the egg but nothing has worked. The reason i think it also could be...
Hello, we purchased 6 Silver Laced chicks from rural king this last Sunday (1 week ago today). I’m assuming they’re no more than 2 weeks old. About 2 days ago I noticed 1 chicks leg was “off”. Balance was off, and it seems to be bending the opposite way but not at the knee, it seems like the...
I posted on here a few days ago about one of my hens that had stopped eating/drinking, laying, was lethargic, and was having watery yellow stool. This was a few days ago, she is still the same today. I was told to give dewormer and corid which i have done for three days now with no improvement...
Okay, my hen has been sick for one day now. She doesn't have any other symptoms except not being able to move. I've been syringe giving her vitamins and ectrolytes. Her poop doesn't have any worms, she's not wheezing. I'm really confused what's wrong with her 😞
Hello everyone, I'm seeking advice what to do with my sick hen. She's an 18 month old rescue hen (Lohmann brown) and such a sweet girl, I really don't want to lose her. It all started 2 days ago when she stood all lethargic and I noticed a soft egg hanging from her butt. I gently pulled it out...
I really need help don't know what to do next, thinking amputation but the vet is not available. If anybody knows a way to go about this please help. I've made more posts about my rooster with more information, but not much help as far as medical treatment for his foot. I try and dress him...
I’m really concerned and I don’t quite know what to do. Please any sort of help will be appreciated.
My hen (spotted sussex) recently hasn’t been active. Tonight I found her laying in the middle of the yard, while all the other hens were settled in the coop for “bed time” and it caused me to be...
I have a hen that has just been acting... off. She has had some runny poo that's now stuck on her feathers. Also, she's been acting sluggish. Still eating & drinking, but she's walking with her tail pointed down instead of up, like all my other girls. 🤔
I don't entirely blame her, it's been in...
I have a 2yr old Red Hybrid type of chicken. She stopped laying a couple months ago. Her last egg was a giant egg with no yolk. She has lost a lot of weight so her breast bone is protruding otherwise. I’ve noticed her looking a bit off a few days ago, a bit scruffy but acting normally...
We had one turkey poult born about 4 days ago, and another born today. Seems healthy, don’t trust mom. First one, Sampson, wont stop attacking his new baby brother. Pecking at his face, chasing him. Does anyone know how I can make him stop?
I have a 3 year old sultan rooster and he's been very healthy up to a few months ago when his legs started to look odd. Kind of dry. I put Vaseline on but it did not help. It continued progressing and now his legs are all raised and red and swollen. One toe is terribly swollen. He has been to...
Hi, so I have a Male Welsh Harlequin who turns 11 in July and a Female Saxony thats about 2-3. We never expected them to hatch any young, but I heard peeps from the nest she sits on, and now I'm scrambled figuring out what to do. We have raised ducklings before but never beyond the nest. We need...

I have an older female who seems very weak is throwing her head around and wobbling. Her eyes seem cloudy I have a flock of eight and she’s the only one like this. I’m not sure what to do I have her separated the best I can. Any advice I have no clue what’s going on. I haven’t really been...
One week ago my 10 assorted chicks got delivered from Meyer Hatchery via the post office (2days old). I also went to my local feed store Runnings and purchased 6 Turkey chicks (about 1 wk old). All seemed to be going well the first day I noticed one of the Turkeys had pastey butt so warm wet...
Hello, I’m on day 32 of hatching a muscovy egg. Thursday around 4pm I candled the egg before placing into the incubator to lockdown. (Day 30)
This is it here on that day…
Today is Saturday 3am (day 32) and I’m so worried. Because I’ve been told that first video it hadn’t pipped, and I’ve been...
I was hanging out with my girls right before bed and they were all running around playing and I gave them a dish of their feed with water mixed in (so mash). Then I put them to bed and all was normal. I then looked on my camera to see if they had all settled down and then I see they are all like...
Writing this fast, so pardon any grammar errors.
This is the situation:
Late this March, Jamboree (my female duck of a drake-hen pair) began laying, and soon after became broody. I don't know if she had ever laid/hatched before since I bought her as an adult, but she was super faithful about...
I’ve been noticing my hens have places where there feathers are just broken off and plain bald spots. One doesn’t have a tail either just the heads of feathers trying to grow. Another has a very bright red crop with no feathers and I don’t know why. I will attach pics. I can’t see any bugs...
