    Swollen neck and signs of pain

    The right side of the neck of a young hen is swollen and hot to the touch. The back of her head is also swollen and soft. She is holding her neck back and ridged and moving slowly but not really lethargic and droopy. Her poop is watery and not really digested at all. What’s going on with my baby?

    insect sting/bite, swollen waddles and throat

    Sunday morning I let chickens out as usual everyone was fine. A few hours later I noticed one was lethargic. Thinking it might be the heat, I soaked her feet in cool water. Comb and wattles were very red but not purple. It seemed to comfort her, but didn’t perk her up. She wouldn’t eat or...
