    She’s been sick before, but she’s the Roo’s favorite hen. I just found out I have ANOTHER Roo. They tagteamed her so much she bled. ATP, I may end up culling her because of her health. She’s scared and stressed. Should I cull her? Also, getting rid of the crooked beak Roo. He’s a jerk...

    Hello all! I have an 8 month old Blue Copper Maran who has been a little off the last 3 days or so. Kind of foraging, kind of self isolating. Just not as active and perky and not eager to eat treats. She has had clear watery poop since this has started and has not been laying. She has been...

    Sick Quail

    I just bought an entire quail set-up with 3 pens and ~40 birds. One has been acting sickly. It’s doing better now. I noticed it was lethargic last night. It’s a 4-week old coturnix quail. It was puffed up and was incredibly calm (didn’t try to escape me). I also noticed it was very skinny so...

    Molting or Sick??

    Hello, I've noticed that several of my hens have a lot of feathers missing, especially around their necks, backs, and tail areas. Their skin looks exposed in places, and it seems like more feathers are showing up in the coop than usual. They’re also laying significantly fewer eggs than they...

    Lethargic ducks

    I have six runner ducks and five chickens. The chickens' routine fecal test came back positive for roundworms so I started deworming both flocks. They don't live together but they share a fence. I've seen no real symptoms other than decreased egg production in both. I'm day three into Aquasol...

    Lethargic, vomitting

    I have this hen who is around 1 year old. I found her on the floor unwilling to move and really lethargic. I gave her some water with electrolytes to see if it was dehydration, but when I picked her up she threw up a brown looking liquid that smells like poop. I’m not sure what to do.

    What is wrong with my duck?

    My duck has been breathing like this for a week now and it seems to get worse then it’ll be better but I’m worried now she isn’t going to make it. Could it be aspergillus exposure? I have 1 other duck and 5 chickens that are all perfectly fine. What can I do to help her?
