I'm so sad to report blueberry (Wyandotte chicken) had Mareks disease. My goose Gretchen had cancer. I didn't actually get a written report. My vet just called me and told me everything, I didn't know that's how they did it. I'm devastated.
At first 2 of my hens were breathing heavy and...
My hen Blueberry went to the vet this morning and he said she was in pretty bad shape and if the antibiotics hadn't helped he was thinking it could be marek's disease. So we decided to put her down to end her suffering. I don't think she would have responded to a third antibiotic if the first 2...
I have 2 older runner female ducks. And I had a silkie hen raise three ducklings (indian runners). The ducklings (all female) were great and normal for the first 4 months. Now they are chasing my goose and rooster. The rooster doesn't mind and just kind of stands there. But my poor Toulouse girl...
Yes I have a syringe. My hen now has foamy eyes

Also do you happen to have a syringe? Your goose probably won’t want to drink it in her water, it’s very bitter, giving it to her with a syringe is the only way to be sure she takes it.

Yes I mean producers pride. But I also buy Purina all flock/waterfowl

I tried the soupy...

My Wyandotte hen about 4 years old started sneezing last week and I thought it was a URI so I got antibiotics from my vet (didn't bring her in) She lost a lot of weight and has been lethargic, I wormed her but expected the antibiotics to help. They haven't and now her comb and face are swollen...
This is the whole family this morning! I had to transport them (in a bucket) while I cleaned their coop! I took a video of them in the bucket because she was purring so loud but it won't let me upload it here. I'll have to take more photos tomorrow ❤️
I have a really sweet silkie that's always wanted to be a mom that never got a chance thanks to everyone else in the flock hiding away and having babies without permission. Thankfully that's over with. But I didn't need anymore chickens. I did need ducks. And I read about people having great...
Today is the day my 3 eggs should be hatching. They have been under broody moms desperate for babies. They did great until today. They threw one half way hatched baby out of the nesting box. No one will accept the baby and I don't have an incubator anymore. I'm trying to keep him warm but he's...
Very interesting post.
I gave my silkie hen 2 baby keets that she took as her own and loved them. They are now almost 1 year old and seem pretty good as far as guineas go. They will occasionally ram a chicken butt but my chickens will turn around and poke them back or my rooster will. They seem...
