    Greetings. Mavis and Mildred are 3-year-old free-range, Bovans or Lohman Reds. Both very healthy until Mavis started laying yolkless, small eggs for about 6 weeks. Then for 3 days, she seemed to have a slight cold with a few sneezes and runny nose. She held her beak open a lot. Runny poop...

    Sneezing chicken

    I have four free range chickens. My oldest girl (a year old). Started sneezing randomly a few times and she looks like she is molting. So we isolated her in a spare pen we had. I live in the Mojave desert and most of my yard is dirt and dried weeds. Is this a simple case of nasal irritation...

    I believe my hen has a respiratory illness

    I have an older hen (10 yrs) and for the past few weeks she has been exhibiting signs of what I would think is a mild respiratory illness or sinus infection (I say mild because she's doing great apart from her symptoms and is very alert and active for her age). Her symptoms include: occasional...

    Duck Sneezing

    So a few days ago, my Pekin started sneezing and I got nervous so I took her to the vet. They said there was nothing in her nares and they think she sounded a little congested. They ended up giving her an antibiotic shot, and gave me antibiotics to give her. The dosage is very small, which leads...

    I got a new bantam flock (3 white sultans and 7 silkies) about a month ago and one of my White Sultans is sneezing a little and has had diarrhea for awhile. No one else seems to be sneezing and I haven’t noticed any other diarrhea from other chicks. 7 have been vaccinated (all 3 sultans) and 3...

    Sick Chickens, How Contagious?

    I recently picked up 3 Silkies from a local farm that was downsizing. She was practically giving them away and they're very difficult to find in my area. I've kept them separate from my small flock in that: - My chicken coop is built into my garage. The bottom half is enclosed by plywood but the...
