My drakes foot is ALWAYS bleeding??!

Can also help to have someone hold said bird. @Pyxis when I ordered the Baytril it said put into the birds water?

I wrap in a towel and get my dh to do holding then you have 2 hands free to give meds. Maybe your mom can help you

There are directions for that, but it's much more effective to just give it directly so you know the bird is getting the proper dosage

Why is it that it’s always at the right side of the throat?

The crop and esophagus are on the right side

He’s so dang handsome. But not at all a happy boy. I’m dealing with this as well as a turkey with a really bad enlarged crop it’s just awful, I want to get aflac better so much. The antibiotics will be here in one or two days. In the mean time I really need to start working those scabs off

Are you getting help with your turkeys crop? I know there is an article about crop impaction.

If you look on the turkey forum you’ll see my thread in there about her, I just posted some about her yesterday. I haven’t began to treat it yet as I’m sorta lost but I’m trying, I think she has sour / pendulous crop
