    Gasping When Eating

    One of my favorite girls( Becky Lunch) will make a gasping sort of sound when she eats. She seems normal other wise; drinking water, laying healthy looking eggs, normal poo etc. I haven't seen the others do it... Could there be something wrong?

    Chicken with Yellow Crust on His Comb

    Hello! A few days ago we bought a Serama Roo and when we got home, I noticed he had some yellow crust on his comb. I have sprayed it twice with Vetericyn, but I don't think it's done anything. I also noticed that he spends most of the day napping on the roost, but I think that might have...
