I keep getting Leghorn hens with poop like this, I never find the right answer, and they always end up dying. It's only ever been my Leghorns, don't know why. Maybe one of you have the right answer and a solution for me because I am so lost. I found her hiding under my porch and brought her in...

I've come to this site a few weeks ago in regards to my top hen Sadie. She had signs of vent gleet and was expelling many lash eggs, and I was suggested nystatin, monistat, and an antibiotic (I chose amoxicillin) for the two conditions. Before all that i treated with Corrid, thinking it was...

Hi, I have this beautiful little bantam hen that I would love a breed ID on. Any ideas? Her skin is white.

My 4.5 year old leghorn hen has had white crusted butt, and clear liquid dripping out of her cloaca constantly. Poop used to be covered in slime but now it looks more normal. I've been treating her for vent gleet, as information about these specific symptoms seems limited. For the past 2 weeks...

Hi, I noticed today that all 7 of my month old chicks (Orpingtons and RIRs) have bruised, flaking beaks. I don't know what could cause this or how to treat it. I'm suspecting either fungal infection (which again I'm not sure how to treat or how they would have gotten it) or maybe they've damaged...

I keep 5 keets with 7 chicks (Bought at Tractor Supply) in their own 3'x3'x2' wired run. All 1 month old. They sleep on the grass piled up, and in the morning I move their run to fresh grass. Always refreshing the water and giving ample feed (Gave high protien for first 2 weeks then ran out...

I keep 5 keets with 7 chicks in their own 3'x3'x2' wired run. All 1 month old. They sleep on the grass piled up, and in the morning I move their run to fresh grass. Always refreshing the water and giving ample feed. It's been rainy these past few weeks, with scattered showers then very warm...

Over the course of the past 5 months, the neighbor’s roosters have integrated into my own flock. They stopped caring for the boys when their hens died, so I took up to feeding them and they’ve grown comfortable with me. They come over every day and stay until the last few minutes of daylight...

I have 6 seemingly healthy 2 day old chicks that I left alone today to go run errands. I come back 2 hours later and one is in facing the corner, laying down with eyes closed, seeming to gasp for air or choking with her head up. I thought maybe she was cold bc it was an unlit part of the...

Hello, I’m at a loss. I noticed today that one of my older leghorn hens was bleeding from her vent (it’s also a bit messy with loose stool). When I grabbed her I noticed she was severely prolapsed. One 30 minute Epsom salt bath later, her vent has gone back in but she’s still dripping blood. Not...

Hello, my name is Skyla and I’m a 23 year old chicken tender (pun intended). I’ve been keeping chickens with my boyfriend for the last 3.5 years and I have grown to learn so much about the Phasianidae family! I have been able to hatch chicks, nurture sick hens, and even conduct surgery on a few...
