She had diahrrea when I brought her home with the other 9 chicks. Ive watched for pasty butt which she had a little of but i soaked it off. No blood so dont think i need corid. Her butt area stays kinda bald, and it looks like her butt vent...
Found one of my ducks with its wing hanging. Went to look at it and found this wound. Has white little bugs that look like worms in it too. What can i do??
I’m having trouble figuring out dosage for syringe application of tylan 200. My chicken is 5 pounds. I need to know how much and how often. Any help would be great!!
My one year old hen i keep finding her laying down a lot. No blood in her poop. Gave her mealworms to see if she’d eat and she did. I seperated her and gave her water with electrolytes. She did poop a liquid that was dark green with some yellow in it. She free ranges during the day and gets...
My duck has been broody and this morning i found her first egg half hatched and dead. Now i went to check her again and another had pipped and part of the duckling was showing. Once she realized she started trying to eat at the egg. I got scared and took that one away and put it under one of my...
I have one male and two female ducks. Both ducks went broody at the same time. My male duck has always been very kind to his ladies(i orginally was going to get more after hearing how males can be aggressive) but he was horrible to the new females i tried introducing to the flock! Hes fine with...
One of my olive eggers has been laying eggs bigger then my ducks! They all have been triple yolk. Today the egg was almost double the size of a duck egg and was cracked so I gave it to the ladies.
Help! This is my only chicken with a weird comb like this. For some reason one of them attacked her the other day. It was a little cut that i out vet spray on. Today i could not find her and found blood everywhere. Finally found her hiding behind the coop. She was covered in blood and her...
So I only have two regular chickens besides silkies. One has been laying for about a month and a half. The other should start laying any day now. They both sleep on the same roost at night and have both been laying in the same nesting box each day. I have been finding eggs without the shell...
So i’ve had two duck eggs under my silkie. Its been over 3 weeks so i went to check today anx noticed that one of the eggs has a small crack in it! Should I isolate my silkie when the eggs hatch in a new area? Will she know to wait for the other egg to hatch before she helps the other one?
One of my 3 week old chicks has a bloody poop. They are all acting normal. They have also all gotten the coccidiosis vaccine (spray) from hoovers hatchery. They are in my bathtub, never been outside.
I orginally thought my duck eggs were fertile.i saw veins(i think) but now i’m not so sure. My broody silkie has been sitting on them for about 2 weeks maybe 3. I should have noted the date but forgot. Any thoughts?
So I ordered 15 sexed chicks (suppose to be all girls) from hoovers hatchery. I’m a little concerned about one being a boy, maybe because she’s become my favorite already. I’ve had barred rock in the past so you’d think i’d be able to tell already.
She is 3 weeks and a few days old and also the...
