mouth

My girl who is a Easter egger was holding her mouth open and has what almost looks like gunk in her mouth. She looked fine before but I saw this this morning. I want to know how I might treat her and try to fix her issue. Milicent is about 5 years old and is a smaller chicken, one of my...

So I have to give my pet quail some medicine every 12 hours through her mouth, problem is I can’t get her to open her mouth so um, how do I do that?

So I have a silkie I found yesterday that started with swollen eyes and some yellow gunk on the inside of the beak where the nares are. A few hours later the inside of the beak swelled up and the throat seems to be swollen too and she has mucus coming from her eyes and nose but it is not crusty...

so around 27 days ago, i noticed he was yawning a lot and a bit of head shaking, i searched and i found out that he shares symptoms of either gapeworm, respiratory disease or ear infection, he didn't seem to share much symptom of either of those at the time, he was yawning a lot, sometime...

So I have a duck that has had a cough going back over a month ago. I used vet-rx and she eventually seemed to shake it, but the last week or so she developed labored mouth breathing. Taking her to the vet is not an option, and I have been trying things on my own that I hope may have a chance of...

I have a duck who was sneezing and assumed it was a respiratory infection that seems to plague some of my ducks, particularly during spring which it is now where I live... normally the symptoms disappear after a few days on oxytetracycline antibiotic which my vet prescribes for me to use for...

Hi, first time chicken mom here. I have been reading about avian pox, canker sores, and other kinds of diseases but I'm not sure which this is. Or even if it is anything at all. Please let me know what you think I should do. Is it a disease or injury? What's the best protocol to help? The first...

Hello, I need help identifying what I pulled out of my roosters face. I have a polish rooster who I noticed a week ago had a huge growth on his mouth. I don't know how long it had been there as he has a big old head of hair that hangs and covers most of his face. I separated him from the rest...

Hello, I'm new to owning ducks, and have had 2 runner ducks for a little over a week now (and getting another tomorrow). Apart from my other post about their behaviour (which I was told was normal, phew), the ducks have been getting along fine. I have been using just hay for bedding up until 2...

I got four middle aged ladies two austrolorps and two blue marans, about four years old, one maran died from scaly leg mites x anemia, the two austrolorps are fine but this other blue maran named Ducky had a layer of smelly yellow gunk on the inside of her cheek x mouth, I removed it and tried...

Hi Everyone, I'm hoping you have some helpful ideas. My pet Muscovy Zeb, was shaking his head violently(as they do) and bit his tongue but then when it started bleeding in his mouth, that made him shake his head more, so it kept getting bitten more, so I stroked him, talked to him and finally...

Today (About 20 minutes before I posted this) a bobcat came by and was on top of the chicken run, it didn't hurt my hens but it did scare them quite a bit. One of my black australorps has a habit of wedging herself into a small space in the coop whenever any perceived predator comes around...

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...

*sigh* So today, I saw that my rooster's tongue came out of its mouth. I noticed a few days ago that its base was swollen and his tongue looked very, very pale. The tongue came out and there was nothing inside his mouth. He was acting completely normal and he could make all sorts of sounds. It...
