    listing when walking

    We have an almost 4mo hen that looks awful, but appears alert & relaxed. She is drinking & eating & able to get on & off her roost. She is however listing when she walks casually. If really focused on getting to feed, etc, she can beeline it there. But moving more slowly lists to left or right...

    2.5 week old mallard with twitching wings

    Hi, I have a 2.5 week old mallard duckling. She is a rescue so is with me all the time but we try to spend a couple hours a day outside with the other ducks so she can integrate back into being a duck as she grows. Because this is my first duckling I’m not sure if her actions are normal. Her...

    Chicken Declining rapidly, showing neurological symptoms

    Hi all - I have a chicken in rapid decline: She is a one year old Cream Crested Legbar. Symptoms started as weight loss during molt over the past week. Then lethargic (i.e. she doesn't try to get away when I go to pick her up - unusual, they aren't pets), not using roost, droopy wings...

    Silkie, possible neurological issue. To cull?

    This is an especially rough one to ask about for me. Silkie hen, age unknown. Sold to me as a "9 month old" when I was younger and dumber 2 years ago. Suspect she is at least 5 now, if not older. Last Wednesday her rooster pecked her pretty good/bad at the back of the head, not sure why as we...

    Ducking neuro problems, seizures, not eating.

    One of my buff duckings (5 weeks old) is acting very strangely. Seizures, neck twisting, walking in circles and not interested at all in following the others. I would say she’s acting blind. She also stands still and looks upwards for hours at a time. I have not seen her sit down in the past...

    Chick may have broken neck? Slobbering and shuffling backwards.

    So I have 12 chicks, about 4 weeks old. The bigger ones enjoy jumping into the edges of their box and roosting since they are inside and not outside. I have a feeling that one may have cluelessly jumped down on this smaller chick. She has been acting strange lately. She still eats and was...

    Duck has scratched his neck raw!

    We live on property with kids and their ducks. We have a couple geese and wound up being primary caretaker of the flock. Think the kids thought it would be fun to have ducks and eggs until once the novelty wore off . They took this little Runner in to vet a few months back when he first...
