I don’t know if it is normal for my duckling to only poop every hour or so, usually they would poop more often right? It is eating, drinking and running around and it shows no other signs of illness. PLEASE HELp!!

Hi there. I have three chickens, one golden laced Wyandotte one silver laced Wyandotte and one cinnamon queen. The cinnamon queen seems to be the lead hen and likes to pick on the others. But the golden laced Wyandotte is in second and she picks on the silver laced Wyandotte. Both the...
Hello, my family and I decided to get chicks for the first time and we really wanted silkies so we ordered online from MyPetChicken. We got 2 silkies, 2 buff laced polish and 2 red stars as day old chicks. When they arrived, 1 polish and 1 red star was dead, and the other red star was...

I need some help finding some grower feed (preferably crumbles) for my ducklings that will soon be 3 weeks old. I need some non medicated crumbles that has 15-16% protein and has some niacin(not too much or too little) in it. I’m hoping to get it before next week. I can’t seem to find any on...
Hello,
We we were checking in on our hens yesterday, and noticed this gash/abscess/sore on our lovely lady.
There was never any evidence of blood, so I suspect it comes from the inside out but am not entirely sure how to proceed.
She does not appear to be in any pain and is exhibiting no other...
I've hatched out around a dozen Cayuga ducks today and yesterday and one has bent toes, so I put little cardboard squares and taped his feet to it. The issue is, he also walks with his feet behind him and he can't walk. His legs are straight out behind him, almost like splayed legs bit vertical...
I read a bit about this in another post, but my situation is a little different. This string came from the rug I placed her on as I was changing the brooder chips. These strings are pretty long and a bit thicker than thread. I am severely worried about the length of it and her having trouble...

I've just saved the last 2 survivors of a clutch of 12 hatched last Thursday by a feral young hen. She has pretty much been leading them to slaughter since Thursday so I today I had enough of hearing their screams and the hawks carry them away. It's also WAY too cold for hatchlings to be...
She can still peck at stuff but her beak hurts and is bleeding she hurt her beak today when she flew around
Her beak is still in line and she can still drink water and have a sand bath should I take her to the vet later?
what do I do :(
I have never had to deal with an injury like this, especially not on a bird, I'm hoping that others can point me in the right direction into saving this poor bird! Found it in my yard, dying, and I didn't want the dogs to eat it. I suspect the hawk attacked several pigeons and injured this one...
Hi everyone, I just want to check my duckling is okay! He seems to eat and drink fine (his breathing has been a little stuffy when he’s eating) but he almost looks like his chest isn’t right?? I’m going to book him a vet appointment but just wanted to see what everyone thought before I did:(
Hello. I need help with my adopted gander Gus. The last post I made I believe he was getting dizzy and thats the reason for him falling over. Now I think it is somthing more, possibly a seizure. Yesterday he was cleaning his feathers and he started walking backwards and fell over again. He is...
I have a silkie rooster who’s maybe half a year old now, and today when I went into the coop he was acting strangely— he seemed to be trying to preen his chest aggressively, but there’s nothing wrong on the outside of his chest. I noticed he had poop in his eye so I brought him in to flush it...
sunny and milo recently started molting! they are 2 or 3 weeks. i was wondering if there are any tips to make them feel better because it’s probably stressful for them. cuddles and love or let them be? they seem A LOT more tired especially milo which is surprising because he’s a VERY hyper duck...
Okay so I recently purchased 2 new Grimaud Hybrid ducklings for my Jumbo Pekin to have new friends. All are female, they have been in a pen inside my house for the entire time and go outside frequently. Just a couple days ago I noticed one of them had started to get goopy almost wet looking...
