The meds I spray on her cleans it out, keeps it moist, and seems to be helping her out. She presently seems happy when I spend visiting hours with her.I really hope your giving pain meds.
Chickens do not show pain. 1/2 a baby aspirin 2 times a day would likely help take the edge off.The meds I spray on her cleans it out, keeps it moist, and seems to be helping her out. She presently seems happy when I spend visiting hours with her.
Out here everyone knows it is illegal, but they also would shoot the raptor and leave it out for the vulchers. Nothing left - not even bones. I had my hen mauled, and I wouldn’t let my better half shoot the hawk. Up close it was a beautiful bird.That’s what they make a .22 for.
Good luck
I haven’t tried anything like that. It’s nice to know something can help. Thank youChickens do not show pain. 1/2 a baby aspirin 2 times a day would likely help take the edge off.
I have used that dosage before with no ill effects that I could see. I would not give for more than one week.I haven’t tried anything like that. It’s nice to know something can help. Thank you
I did not know this and have done it on numerous occasions to ward off not only hawks, but stray dogs running our horses. Oops! I mean just dogs, I just shoot em at dogs.While it isn't legal, I've heard that bottle rockets aimed at the roosting hawks help.
