Hello!
About a week ago I made a post about red globs and intestinal lining in poop. After that, a few more birds had intestinal lining and no more red globs. I had a fecal float done that came back negative for worms or cocci, but I decided to worm anyways since it may not have shown up. About...
First year chicken owner here!
Went to grab some eggs and noticed this dropping on the "poo deck". Horrified and thought it was a tapeworm from afar but it's as large as their usual droppings and seemed almost like a egg casing? Has anyone ever seen something "translucent" like this or might...
I have four hens and I believe they all are laying, I got them on Mother’s Day of this year, I noticed this poop this morning under the roost. I have seen poops like this before wondering if there is any answers or if I need to be concerned or not?
Hello, All!
I'm hoping the amazing folks here can help. I took my girl, Thyme, to the vet a week ago because she was lethargic, not eating, and laying shell-less eggs. She is a 22 week old Buff Orpington and her issues started when she began laying about a week-and-a-half ago. She had a TON of...
Background: it will be day 7 of me noticing the fluffed feather area tomorrow (Thursday). At first I thought it was respiratory issues as all of my chickens have sneezing and some sound raspy. They all got the sneeze one after the other. But never had any snotty noses or lethargy. I started them...
A few days ago I noticed my buff orpington was acting a little slower than usual. She has been getting worse and it looks like she's having weird bathroom troubles. She strains a lot and only a little comes out and it looks "snaky". I don't believe she is eggbound unless the egg might have...
My ducks have started pooping like this since this morning, it’s interesting because they’re just little balls of poop. There aren’t any worms in them, and the ducks are acting totally normal. Is this okay?
hi! my one and a half year old female fawn runner had a normal poop (blue from blueberries lol) and something small, yellow and slimy came out with it. i thought upon first looking that it was a small slug, because it looks and feels like one, but she hasn't eaten any slugs that i know of (we've...
one of my hens (cinnamon queen, 2 1/2 years) has been acting lethargic for the past two days. going to bed early and staying in the coop a bit longer, taking long breaks where she stands in the sun, and ruffing her feathers. she didn’t have any other symptoms so i assumed it was the weather...
Hi everyone,
My sweet hen Penny has an ongoing sour crop but recently started having unusual poops. I was very worried about her because she wasn’t preening, eating or drinking water and her crop was really bloated. She ended up having a very unusual poop (see pictures). I have never seen...
Hi everyone, my chicken pooped something really funky today and I wanted to post and see if anyone could spot an issue. She’s acting totally normal, besides a few slow crop issues, but this poop was big, watery, gooey, and stinky. It just didn’t look right. Does anyone have any idea what could...
I lost one of my chickens a few days ago and only have one left. She's still acting scared, but she's having small green poops. When I say small, I mean like the size of a nickel. She doesn't seem to be eating much, even though she has plenty of food. I'm not too sure what to do for her. Thanks...
I was gone for FOUR days, and in that short span of time all hell has broke loose. I'm losing chickens like crazy with no symptoms, and now today there are symptoms and I don't know what to do.
I had one hen sent in to the University and nobody has called or emailed back yet.
Ages range from...
i recently got 4 new baby chicks at a farm store for my lone baby chick however, one of the chicks I've gotten seem to be very off from the other 3 and my baby chick from home. He seems to sleep a lot more than everyone of them and plays very little. He also poops a mint green color which...
