    Hen prolapsed vent and possible necrosis? Please help. Any advice appreciated.

    Our two year ISA Brown, Maple, has come down with a prolapsed vent. I didn’t notice it yesterday, so I think it must be relatively new. She is still moving about, wanting to eat, and acting like her normal self. We have soaked her bottom in hot water, but after cleaning her up noticed some hard...

    Bruised Turkey

    Hello, my 1 year old tom was chased by a dog and fell on a hard surface a few times. It’s been 3 days and he now has bruising along his underside (chest and belly). He won’t stand but he is eating and drinking. How long should I expect for recovery? Anything I should be doing up help him?

    Injured rooster

    So my rooster got attacked by a fox a couple days back. He’s still alive and I’ve put blue spray over all the bite marks. I’m feeding him by hand and he’s taking the food but not doing anything himself. He’s not holding his head up. My main question is, do I carry on with the love and care...

    Chicken attacked by Hawk (photo attached)

    One of our chickens was attacked by a hawk but luckily we went outside and scared it off before it could kill the chicken although it left a huge wound on the side of her face where her ear is (i believe). We have Neosporin, vetericyn plus, and blu-kote that we are putting on the wound as well...

    Month-long Wryneck?

    About five months ago, our 5-month-old Croad Langshan rooster developed a case of what appeared to be wryneck. He had the classic neck twist/starry-eyed gaze and seems to be favoring one side of his body so that when he walked he leaned into one side more than the other. We brought him inside...

    I accidentally ripped all her tail feathers out!!!

    My olive egger, Periwinkle, was in the trees and we’re about to have a heavy snow. When I tried to grab her she jumped down and I ended up ripping out a fist full of tail feathers. I read there are blood feathers back there but it’s very dark to tell if she’s going to bleed. Her rump is bare now...

    Limping Hen - no other symptoms

    Hi all! I have a 2-3 year old RIR (I think) lady that I found standing still in the run last Sunday (Jan 16).
