Ducky had started to externally pip 24+ hrs ago and made some holes! When i could finally see his beak through the hole i noticed the membrane still covering most of it. I decided to peel back more of the shell and use a wet Q Tip to damp the membrane and move it so the duckling could breathe...

This girl has always had weird feet so we didn’t immediately catch this. Is it bumble foot? Her toe is swollen and the tip is basically black (she never had a normal nail on that toe so it’s not missing). She’s limping too. How bad is this? Should I rush her to a vet? Her feet are really...

For a few days now my girl Loretta has not been feeling well, I first noticed this when I saw her walking like a penguin, my first thought was egg bound however after doing everything for that it ended up not being that, then a group online said she had the classic symptoms for water belly, so I...

I posted on here a few days ago about one of my hens that had stopped eating/drinking, laying, was lethargic, and was having watery yellow stool. This was a few days ago, she is still the same today. I was told to give dewormer and corid which i have done for three days now with no improvement...

The chicken is 2or 3 years old. She moves less than usual, and her wing can bend in odd directions and it is red and swollen. There is no bleeding. Even when she is frightened or jumping, she won’t use her wings. Does anyone know what I should do?

One of my chickens had this weird foam in her eye, the other was really swollen, and had a sort of mucus discharge coming out of it when i wiped it off with a clean cloth and room temp water. it looks scabby around her eye, and i thought it was poop at first which really concerned me. i...

So my 6 year old duck went broody, sat on eggs. One is hatching and it’s pretty chilly and rainy today. How long can she be gone and should I go get the baby? The nest is inside our duck coop. I have never hatched eggs before so I am panicking. Plus she is in with the general population since...

Hello! I’m posting this for a friend of mine, his chicken Bonnie (red sex link, 2-3 months), suddenly stopped walking. At first it was limping but now she just lays down unmoving. Sometimes she wakes up and is active but others she is very lethargic (like in the picture attached). He’s very...

I assisted my ducklings hatching and it is premature unfortunately however I've let the yolk absorb and kept it moist , I've also kept the duckling warm as much as i can , last thing I did was give it sugar water and reheated a disposable shirt. I don't have an incubator so I'm hoping this is...

My broody duck has laid eggs and has hatched out two ducklings so far, I’m concerned for their safety at night because of a rat infestation that recently occurred. I was wondering if I put them in the brooder for the night for their own safety, will she take them back in the morning? They’ve...

I want to preface this by saying I do not have the option to send him to a retreat. Due to Avian flu they are not excepting newcomers. We saved him because he mom was gone, even after searching. His leg was really busted aswell. Fast forward a day, and he ends up continually jumping up on his...

My 2 year old Buff Orpington is not acting normal. She is standing straight up, not moving much. I went out there to check on her and she stood still only took a couple of steps. She took one peck at the ground and continued to stay still. We even tried to give her a small piece of a strawberry...

Hi all, Just got two new baby chicks to add to our flock they are in the brooder and only four days old. One is thriving but I am becoming concerned for the other she is constantly sleeping and today has started showing minimal to no interest in food. I have given her some electrolytes in hopes...

Someone please help me, My birds have recently started losing feathers near the base of their tail. They are quite young, turning a year old next month. They have been laying a lot of eggs regardless of illness (all my birds have a history of so, the two that died in the past laid eggs on their...

Hello, I have a darling peahen named Bubble, sadly in the last few weeks I noticed a growth appearing under her beak on her face, I wasn’t sure what it was and whether it was something to worry about or if it would just go away on its own. Unfortunately, the growth has not gone away and has...

TW-pic is a little gruesome hey all i went out to my chickens this morning and found my favourite chicken acting off. upon further discovery i have found an open wound on her back just above her tail. i suspect she has been attacked by one of my bigger chickens as she cannot fully see so...

I have a duckling that is a few weeks old, it's was doing great up until a few days ago when we saw that it was walking on it's whole leg as well as the feet. We kept an eye on it but it got progressively worse ( started falling to it's side and couldn't keep up with the other ducklings) so we...

Hello, I’m at a loss. I noticed today that one of my older leghorn hens was bleeding from her vent (it’s also a bit messy with loose stool). When I grabbed her I noticed she was severely prolapsed. One 30 minute Epsom salt bath later, her vent has gone back in but she’s still dripping blood. Not...
