"Throwing down" on throwing up

[twilightsparkle]

HELP,,,again!! Two of my chickens have been throwing up. How can I help them. Plz help me BYC lovers!!

 

[dirtychick]

Never seen that how old are they. Do they have fresh food, water, grit. what have they been eating?

 

[welasharon]

what are they doing when they" throw up". Chickens don't really throw up.

I'll answer dirty chick first: 1 They are 5 months 2 Yes they have fresh feed, water, ect. 3 We had them off and on with chick starter, scratch, and oats. Now for welasharon: They usually just spit up a clear liquid coming out of their mouth and nose. Thats all thx

In my experience, sometimes chickens, especially young ones and chicks, will "spit up" a clear runny liquid when they drink too much, too fast. This usually doesn't mean anything, and they are fine.

Has it been hot and are they drinking a ton of water?

 

[dirtychick]

Now it soulds like something i may have seen . Don.t remenber if its signs of coli -but I'd give some antibolilic keep fresh water and feed grower and side grit.

 

[dirtychick]

I would call that slubering or druling instead of thorwing up for referance --might talk to your feed store.
