    I think my chicken has worms

    What Type of Worms?

    I had a chicken that recently died- while I was doing a post mort I found these worms in her hospital bedding and around her vent. I looked online but couldn’t identify them- do any of you more experienced chicken owners know what type of worms these are and how to protect the rest of my flock?

    I'm in a byc local group and this has been a debate all day with over 100 comments. I figured I'd bring it to the experts lol. These are not my pictures. Is this some sort of worm or leaked egg whites from a hole in the egg?

    HELP! QUAIL ATE BAD WORMS!!!!!

    My Coturnix Quail hen was accidentally fed putrid mealworms! Some canned mealworms (mealworms canned in juice from petstore for birds and reptiles) had been left out for a few days at least and a nephew got a hold of them and fed them to the quail! These worms were pretty bad. I fear the...

    Worms or plant matter?

    I’m leaning towards plant matter for whatever these hair like things are, but what do I know really? This is from a goose that has been acting off lately, not feeling well, quiet, slow to follow the others, not as hungry as usual. So I decided to worm “albendazol” and I get these weird...

    Does my chicken have worms? Neck shaking, white blobs in droppings, lethargic.

    My approximately 1 year old Ameraucana, Nettle, hasn't been her usual self this week. I let all my hens (6 total) out of their coop/run every morning, but yesterday and the day before Nettle had little energy. She would come out and just plop down in the grass while everyone else scratched...

    Bloody poop from new chickens

    We just brought home 3 new chickens on May 22 to join our one lonely hen. I’ve since noticed runny poop and now bloody poop. I have an idea which it may be coming from (one of the 8 week olds), and based on what I’ve read it is probably coccidiosis or worms. Should I treat all the hens with...

    Thin white worms in chicken’s old water - is this a concern?

    I swapped out an old dish waterer for a nipple setup for my chickens about a week ago. They are 5 month old Black Australorpes and are just starting to lay. After taking the old waterer dish away, I left it in the sun and did not clean it for about a week (lazy, I know!) as I planned to throw...
