Hi all! My guinea hen, Nellie, has been having issues for a while. Her breathing is wheezy, and every once and a while she shakes her head and sneezes. If she gets worked up (gets picked up, runs, etc.) then her breathing gets worse to the point where she may sit down and puff up a little to get...
My one goose Ella, who's around 5 months old, seems to be constipated the last couple of days. I've watched her try to go and it looks like she's straining only for a tiny bit to come out, it's solid, but about the size of my thumb. I tried expecting her crop but I couldn't find it.
She also...
I returned from vacation to find one of my hens breathing with her mouth open and making this sound with every breath. Her nostrils and eyes look clear, her comb is a good color, and she is eating/drinking and active. I’m unsure of what to do for her or if she is getting enough air.

We have two RIR pullets(I think they’re both pullets) about 7.5 weeks old. One is smaller and one is larger. Yesterday we noticed the smaller one was not as active as she had been, today she is keeping one of her eyes closed unless I force it open and appears normal. She just seems a little more...
Hello, so last Saturday morning (4/9) my 6 year old rooster began singing as if he were losing his voice. I checked inside his beak and everything did look normal, but my sister said he was "breathing kinda hard" (which I didn't notice). Anyways, his voice returned in the afternoon and I thought...
I noticed yesterday that one of my hens was panting. Her neck expands very far when she breaths. She has also been sneezing a lot. She pooped and it was very stringy and white. She is eating and acting normal other than that. I just gave her some oatmeal with oregano and some water with...
Just got this gal after someone advertised online about needing to rehome her as her flockmates died, first the rooster and then her hen-friend. Looks to be a polish cross?
Tinny has scaley leg mites from the looks of it and a bit of a wheeze to her breathing, so she had a bath with Johnson's...
Hi! We have dealt with corzya in the past so I already know that isn't it. My baby chicken has been wheezing, 'rattling' and sneezing for about 2 months now. Today I noticed one of her eyes is swollen, has green and yellow crust around it and bubbles coming from the inner corner. No smell. She's...
Hi! I’m a first time duck owner with a 5 month old crested white peckin. She’s been in great health, eating well, acting normal, etc.
She recently started doing this wheezing/backwards sneezing (not sure what it is or why she’s doing it) for the past 1-2 weeks and I’m not sure whether to be...
Hello there friends,
We have two Ancona ducks a little over two months old. Both seem very happy and healthy, minus the fact that one seems to wheeze rather than quack. And she seems to be wheezing more often now.
Doesn't appear to have any blockages, no runny eyes or nose, and not overweight...
I feel sort of guilty posting this when others have much more urgent problems, but I'll do it anyway.
My eight month old silkie rooster, Peter, wheezes after he crows. I'm not sure, but I think this is new. I noticed it yesterday morning, because he crowed several times. He crows, then sharply...
Hi everyone! I've been doing a lot of research both in the forums here and elsewhere, and I am really not sure what to make of my pullet's symptoms. She's a 6 month old Easter Egger, started laying 6 weeks ago (give or take...I'm still working to see who lays which eggs...), and other than a...
Hello all! I posted very recently about my breeding roo who passed away overnight due to an unknown illness. The whole flock seems to be sick, but with different symptoms. They are all wheezing and/or coughing with a loud mucus-sounding cough. Other than that they seem to be acting normal. Poop...
