Thank you for your for advice. Sadly, chick didn’t make it. It was too far progressed for me to do anything. I feel so bad about it. I don’t think the hatchery was to blame. The open navel was very hidden by the chicks fluff and I didn’t see it so I am sure the hatchery didn’t. They were from...

We received our chicks about 12 hours ago and I recently noticed one was cheeping sort of in distress and not being as active as the other chicks. It is drinking, though, and doesn’t seem sick. I went to look at it’s vent to check for pasty butt and noticed two bumps! (One was the vent, the...

Thank you all for your replies! It will be live cover. The veterinarian is extremely experienced in reproductive exams in cattle, especially palpation. I haven’t asked about his experience in equine reproduction. I will be sure to ask! She really doesn’t look her age at all, but a lot will...

(I hate autocorrect too, right now!) I have read a lot of Chronicle of the Horse articles. Some are really encouraging, others not. Lots of users have shared their experience with older maidens or older mares in general.

That really helps a lot. Thank you! I’m not quite 100% sure she is a maiden, I do not know her reproductive history. I call her that because I have never had a BSE done on her. The vet will be able to tell if there is any scarring, but I haven’t been able to find much information on determining...

I haven’t yet talked to my veterinarian, I was going to do so this week or next and get his advice for sure. I just thought I would hear some advice from members who have had experience as well.

Hi everyone! I have been riding horses for about nine years now, and have been training for more than six. I have trained several rescues and I have decided to take the next step and train a horse from “the ground up” out of a beloved mare. It has been a lifelong dream to breed my own foal. I...

I just put some pureed peaches (No sugar,just plain.) in her pen. I massaged her crop (Some stuff came out. It was more liquid this time.) and she had evidently drank some water. My only worry is that she acted a little bit sluggish and I saw she was sleeping with her head in her bedding. Should...

Thank you! I put the hen in a dog pen where she could see the other flock,but they couldn't mess with her. I massaged her crop and held her face towards the ground sevral times. I did so again this morning and she doesn't have that much in her crop now. She is sleeping. Tomorrow I will try to...

What other kind of foods would be good besides natural yogurt? (I can't find any reliable websites.)

Should I separate her? Do you know what causes it?

Thank you for your advice! I had no idea what it was and it freaked me out! Both of your advice has been helpful!

I'll check it out. It definitely smelled horrible!

Yes you read right! I think I have seen a chicken puke! I was just out in the coop on a matter of a listless chicken. It was standing there, unmoving. After seeing if she would take interest in some bread,(She didn't want any.More strange behavior,a chicken not wanting food.) I picked her up to...
