    Green Urate/Poop Death

    One of my coturnix quail dropped dead out of nowhere- perfect health, she was old, except I noticed green poop around the pen. The urate is green, I think, not the poop itself. Should I be worried about my other quail? What could cause this?

    My chickens are Apple seeds

    I tossed my hens some apple cores and then realized the seeds are toxic. I know they each ate some. I’m really worried cause I know this can kill them! What should I do? How much is harmful?

    clearly ill on multiple levels

    Mentally ill, and now it seems quite physically ill...Oreo is a silkie, only a year old. She's never been the sharpest knife in the box but now I think something's seriously wrong with her. Like she's really lethargic, just sits around the coop and doesn't do anything. And a complete lack of...

    HELP duck is sick don’t know what it is

    So one of our ducklings is feeling down. She’s usually runs away from me but today she won’t do that. I held her front up and she just drank water. Her sister won’t leave her side and will rest next to her. She won’t even honk at me. She is around 1 month. She’s been very tired all the time.

    Limping, black spots on feet, 2 wk chick

    Hi Everyone, Here's a picture of a 2 week old chick (easter egger) with black spots on its feet. Within the last 24 hours, we noticed the chick slipping and sliding when trying to walk, its legs apparently not strong enough to hold it up. The chicks had scratched to the bottom of their brooder...

    Sick Hen :(

    Recently, I noticed that one of our chickens was acting very strangely. Over the past two days she's been randomly lying on the ground and sleeping. The other chickens were not picking on her, but it still alarmed me. I checked up on her and I couldn't feel anything strange about her, so I let...

    Sour Crop Death?

    Yesterday morning when I went out to my chicken's coop I found one of them laying on the floor. I picked her up and she was breathing with her mouth slightly open and her crop was very large and squishy, it felt like it was filled with fluid or gas. I thought she might have sour crop and I had...

    Sick quail seeming better, then dies

    I've been wondering why my sick quails seem much better after proper care, then suddenly they die. This happened a few months ago when a one year old quail seemed lethargic so I brought her inside, and she seemed to be recovering, then suddenly she passed away. Then a few days ago, I noticed...

    Hello, I have a female pekin duck. One of her eyes is sealed shut and she won't open it. There's no signs of it being irritated, besides a little blob of puss that I gently removed earlier. I don't know what happened to her, maybe something got into her eye? Please help me out and figure out...

    Swollen chick vent

    I have a polish chick that is about a month old. She got pasty butt a few weeks ago that I thought I treated. Her vent is now swollen and gets “clogged” fairly easily but it’s not pasty butt. She’s in the house so that I can keep it clean. I’ve been rinsing it with warm water and applying...

    Molting Hen With Very Watery Poop - Not Worms

    Hello, I'm wondering if someone might be able to help me figure out why one of my chickens is under the weather. She's a bantam silkie who seems to be going through a pretty big molt - she is in the regrowth process now. About three weeks ago (around the time she began molting), she stopped...

    Tick on chicken

    I just found a tick on the back of one of my chicken's head where she wouldn't be able to reach. It was a regular tick, not a fowl tick. I am concerned that she may get an infection. Any suggestions on how to treat for this or what I should lookout for? Many thanks

    Sick Button, any advice?

    Hello, one of my mature (3 years) indoor-raised male buttons have started to act very strangely. There is a high chance that he's passing on peacefully right now, but he also shows symptoms of sickness. He has not moved from his sleeping spots for hours at a time, or eaten or drank today. I've...

    Sour crop? Or something else?
