    Cayuga Duck Respiratory Infection

    Our almost one-year-old Cayuga, Flora McDonald, has been coughing for about a week. We didn't think much of it at first (she had a weird little cough last year, that went away eventually), but the day before yesterday she started to have trouble breathing. Now her breathing is audible and more...

    Showing signs of Gapeworm

    Hi, I had two chickens until yesterday. Now I have one and I'm beyond desperate to resolve this. My birds have been sick for two years now with respiratory issues. I have had the vet out on multiple occasions. I had suggested Gapeworm at one point and he said it wasn't (without testing, just...

    Hen has blue comb and respiratory probs!

    I have a 1.5 year old leghorn that has been acting odd and I can’t figure out what to do next. On 6/23, I saw her extending her neck and gasping twice and then her behavior returned to normal, so I just assumed she had something stuck in her throat and she cleared it. On 6/24, she began...

    I hatched a duckling about three weeks ago and it's grown big but maybe not healthy. I've been feeding it chick starter crumbles unmedicated 18% protein from the tractor supplies store. We just bought some new food that's similar but has a duck and chick on the cover - same thing just 20%...

    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...

    Deworming Hens Without Worms?

    Hello all! Recently, my poor hen, Onyx, died of an impacted crop. However, at the vet, the doctor said that she might have also had worms. We didn't run any tests because I thought it would be silly to test a dead bird (I'd instead test my only other hen, Lacey) but is it safe to assume that...

    Is Vetrx harmful to tortoises and dogs?

    I had a few drops of vetrx (poultry) and a table spoon of apple cider vinegar in my chicken's water and our giant tortoise drank from the same water. Is it safe for the tortoise and our dog to consume if we add those to the water for the chickens regularly?
