infection

Her leg is injured all the way around, as the trap pinched her foot above the claw. I have put Neosporin on it and today we noticed a green bubble that has come up. I'm worried and am wondering if someone could tell me if I should take her into the vet.

On Sunday I noticed one of my barnyard mix hens feathers were hanging down her leg. She was eating and otherwise seemed fine. I couldn’t catch her and get a better look until yesterday. When I went to check on her I did notice that there was a huge lump/tumor hanging down. (From one side of her...

Can anyone tell me what this might be? There was a sore, with some blood. I cleaned it with poultry cleaner and put neosporin on it, and cut the feather pieces from around it. He’s mostly my pet more than anything. I have him inside in my room now separated from my other turkey. They are both...

I've had this Pekin duck for 7+ years since 2015 as a family pet. He lives in my backyard and has lived alone ever since his other ducks had died. I think he developed bumblefoot in about 2017 but since I was a naive child I didn't understand what it was until it got worse. When I finally...

I swear it’s just one thing after another.. yesterday I was throwing grass into the run for the chickens and noticed one of my hens Mocha going to eat it but never actually picking it up and eating it. I checked her all over and see nothing wrong on the outside but noticed she smelled strongly...

Hello, so it's been an ongoing battle treating my rooster's foot. He's got arthritis in his right leg, and on top of that he lost some toes due to frostbite this last winter. I've been dressing the wound since and it was looking better for a while, and he got around just fine, but recently it's...

Hey y’all! I just recently purchased my first Cayuga ducks from someone who is downsizing their flock for winter, I bought 2 hens and a drake they are about 2 years old. When I purchased them, the person said that one of the hens had a bit of a limp, and she still has the limp right now, I went...

This chick was scalped 2 nights ago. The first night I used peroxide, saline and white cream Neosporin. The next morning I tried taking off the Neosporin but some of it wouldn't come off. I used saline and then iodine to rinse it after getting off as much cream as I could. Then applied clear...

I have nine bourbon red poults that are about two weeks old. One is not doing well this evening. His belly area seems swollen, there is a scab in that area. He is just standing with his eyes closed and wings drooped, letting the other poults run over him. Could it have an infection? Or be...

I Just noticed one eye on a 6 week old pullet looks - off. Is it an infection? Something else? What do you think?

hello I have a hen whose eye seems gunked shut. Came out of nowhere but i'm concerned it might be a respiratory thing as my rooster's nose keeps getting clogged up with black stuff, could this be related ??? I noticed a couple days ago her eye looked slightly irritated, almost a bit swollen, but...

Hey all, my duck’s bill seems to be looking rather interesting. I looked at it up close and have wiped it with warm water and dawn to remove any debris. She has water deep enough to clean her nostrils, food and water given daily. I did remove piece of debris last night that was hard and sort of...

Yesterday I noticed one of our babies has a swollen lump between her eye and ear, it’s making the area look all distorted and bare. Could anyone take a look at these pictures and give your opinion? No discharge from the eye, no other symptoms, eating and drinking normally! This first time...
