Wow! I never knew this was an issue for Turkeys. I had a bantam rooster imprinted on me and he'd try to mate with my arm (lol) but it wasn't serious as he only weighed 1 pound. I could easily grab him and set him back down. Looks like he will need to be dinner or penned up. I'd love to eat him...

We have a pair of black Spanish turkeys. The boy has decided he wants to mate with humans.... biting, trying to mount our legs, etc. He's big too. This turned into just pure aggression. He attacks me every time I go outside now. If I grab him and push him away from me, as soon as I let go he...

Thank you for your advice! No new chickens except a baby from rural king. I have a sling I made for my old rooster, I will get it out and see if it will work for her.

It started with a limp, then she had trouble standing and walking, now she can't walk or stand at all. Her posture continues to get worse as she is "sitting" on her behind instead of laying down. Legs out in front of her. She is constantly trying to preen her booty and shaking her tail which is...

My four year old serama suddenly stopped being able to walk a week ago. She pushes herself backward and her legs go out infront of her. She's never done this before, I've had her ever since she hatched. I'm feeding her 1cc poultry cell, 200IU vitamin E and Omega egg maker daily. She is...

I have a pet serama rooster, he's 7 months old. He's lived a really spoiled life as an indoor/outdoor rooster. He used to be my alarm clock every morning until his health started declining. 6 weeks ago, he started limping a little. I figured he may have sprained something so I was really...

I have 6 roosters that I want to start a bachelor pad for. I"ve never done this before. They are seramas. They are pretty mean (even to their hens), so I wanted to try a bachelor pad to get them out of their individual cages. I have a few questions I'd love to see if I can get answered.. : 1...

Still not good. I have an appointment on Tuesday to bring her into a livestock vet that can hopefully do something for her. :(

She's on day 3 of full dose baytril, no improvements. Poor girl, I was really hoping it would work. She squeaks and still acts lethargic. She just had a sneezing fit a second ago. She's definitely drinking it, so it looks like it's getting in her just fine. Thinking about finding a place to do...

I will also go to tractor supply tomorrow to see if they have LA 200. I think you're right, she could've just not drank enough of the water. I'm not sure though. I wish I had a vet near me that would see her. Southern Ohio/WV border doesn't have many options unfortunately.

Thank you SO much for your reply back. I just ordered some baytril off of allbirdproducts.com, hoping it will arrive soon. It'll be good to have in my medicine cabinet regardless if it helps clear this is up. She squeaks every time she breaths in and out, I feel so bad for her. Hoping for the...

So update! By the time I tried the tylosin powder, everyone in the garage got over it just fine. It's just one hen that is still really struggling. I treated her with tylosin powder for the recommended 5 days, but 0 improvement. She heaves with every breath now and only wants to be fluffed up...

I have seramas (very small bantams) that can't be outside during the winter. We just moved across the country to a colder climate so it's been 30's and 40's outside. All of my babies are in our garage with the heater going. I always lived in city limits so I kept just hens for years. As soon as...

I will see if tractor supply has the tylan injectable. Thank you! He is a little serama weighing 15oz. His flockmate caught whatever this is as well and has the same symptoms. I kept my little serama rooster inside last night on a heat pad so I could watch him. Lots of rumblies in his chest and...

No new birds for the past 3 months. No stress other than temperature drop - but they go in the garage each night with a space heater. No bad odor. No eyelid swelling. No prior respiratory issues either except for the occasional sneeze when some of my chickens were young. I have one of my...

My chickens suddenly came down with a sickness. They have rumbling when they breathe (mucous in their lungs), they gasp for air and are sneezing. I'm really concerned. It came on very fast, like within 24 hours they went from showing no symptoms to all of this. I have trimethoprim/sulfa powder...

This chick is smaller than the rest, has a single comb, and a lot more white coming in on her feathers. She was bought as a blue laced gold wyandotte. Does she look like a blue laced gold wyandotte? The other girls have walnut combs, muted colors, and are a lot bigger than her. Here's a picture...

I have a mommy hen with three 4 week old baby chicks. Woke up today to one of the chicks attacking the other two, bloody combs and all. The culprit was taken out and put in the heated brooder with my large wyandotte chicks in hopes to quell his attitude. He saw his first victim and attacked...

Thank you guys! It's probably fine then. I think I'll eat the rest of them still. I appreciate it!

I already ate one tonight and remembered how they feasted on a puppy pad when I had them in a travel carrier while cleaning their cage. It's been a FULL 6 days since then and have had full bellies every day with their normal quail feed. I have horrible anxiety and I'm up wondering if it's fine...
