I have a baby, about 4-7 weeks old, it's tail has been pecked down to the bone (I don't know how) and he's trying to die. He's in a lot of pain and I think he should be put out of his misery, I was wondering if it would be possible to OD him with Ibuprofen. We're looking for the quickest, and...
What's strangest is it is her whole wing, but a very defined line on her shoulder, it's localized to just her wing, it doesn't hurt her, but she can still feel on her wing. (I tested this by pinching pieces of skin along her wing) she reacted the same as the other wing.
One of my white leghorns hurt her wing, I thought she had dislocated or broken it. She lost total movement of it, and today, two days after it happened, I checked on her and her entire wing, from the shoulder is GREEN and I literally mean, Green, grass green. And I don't know what to do! Pics...

One of my little girls had her tailfeathers completely burned off! Aside from that no outward injuries except a few minor burns, I went to work the next day hoarse! A few of them still smell a little like smoke :/
Best as we understand it, the bird that died must've sat on the light, or really close to it, and caught on fire, then in panicking tore the light down so it landed on the hay, we're lucky my sister saw it, probably very soon after it happened, we almost lost a lot more but I climbed in to take...

My chicken coop caught fire two nights ago, luckily we caught it before the fire spread to the nearby woods, but not before it could claim the life of one of my roosters, the other 12 are mostly alright, but suffering severe smoke inhalation, What can I do to help them breathe? one hen in...
