    Chicken is leaking out of bum, help!

    CONTEXT: recently 2 of our chickens died, leaving one hen, so we rescued 3 more chickens to keep her company. The 3 new girls have been settling in okay, aside from being bullied by the old hen, which we are trying to work on. They are not all laying yet - maybe one or two of them, but we are...

    Chicken with oozing/leaky eye

    Hi. So the my issue is: I have a chicken that had some eye issue even when it was young. Its right eye was a little bit swollen and fluid was extensively coming out of it. The vet gave it some kind of antibiotic and it became (still was present a bit) better. That persisted for months and...

    Lethargic hen, seizure, dark fluid coming from beak, nose, and eyes after she died. What happened??

    This afternoon I noticed my hen was looking very lethargic and wouldn't stand up on her own. Her face was paler than usual, and her backend was a little rounder than usual. I though she might be egg bound, so I put her in a warm, dimly lit room. I checked on her every now and then, but she was...

    Chicken with ascites. Please help!

    On Sunday I first noticed that one of my chickens was looking a bit bloated. By Monday her abdomen was very large and she was struggling to breathe. On Tuesday after some research, I determined that she likely has ascites. I watched some videos on how to drain the fluid. I used a large syringe...

    My Chicken is Severly Bloated and Balance is Unstable!

    Hello, one of my hens stomach is extremely bloated, it kind of feels like it may be filled with fluid. She is a little unsteady and will not walk much. She is constantly pumping her tail but is able to poop with no problem. I checked her vent to feel for an egg but I didn’t feel one. I...

    Fluid filled crop help please!

    I noticed this morning that both of my ducklings, about 3-4 weeks of age, had semi large lumps on the right sides of their necks lower toward the breast. After research, I came to the conclusion they both had ruptured air sacs and as a medical professional I treated with needle aspiration and...

    Ducklings have quite a lot of clear fluid coming from nose and mouth. Is this normal?

    Today 2 of my 5 ducklings spat/snorted quite a bit of fluid (I couldn’t quite see where it came from) when I picked them up to clean out the pen. That’s the only time I’ve noticed anything like that. Then I put the ducks back and the same two did it again but this time I saw it come from the...

She also seems to be breathing more rapidly, and has smaller poops, but otherwise has no other symptoms. She eats, drinks and acts normally. This started about 3 weeks ago, doesn’t...

    Hen is full of fluid!

    She was puffy and quiet yesterday and had lots of dried poop around her vent. Today, I pulled off as much as I could and checked her for a stuck egg. I found a lot of retained fluid in her belly! No egg that I could find and I pulled more of the poop off of her and she was quite agreeable...

    Sick Chicken?

    I just got a chicken today. She is a Silver Pencil Rock. When I first picked her up, her crop felt very soft, full, and as if it was full of fluid. The place that we got her at was in California, and the weather was above 100 degrees, same as where we live. (We are going through a heat wave.)...

    Water between the membrane...

    I bought several new breeds of birds through the purchase of eggs. I'm not a novice at producing clutch rates at better than 75%. I think it would be higher but... The folks I purchased from were online and very nice. I believe I was sent decent eggs. I'm not asking for a guarantee. But I store...
