    hen has vent gleet

    Welasharon, I'm honestly not sure if they are maggots or not. I was cleaning her up again in the shower and tried using the Q-tip to help break up the mass. I was able to clip some feathers away from the area (as she has been being very fussy). When I got a good look at it I noticed that the...

    Sickly hen

    Hi, I have a 2yr old english silkie bantam/new Hampshire red mix hen named Zoe. Over the past 3 days she has been acting odd. She distances herself from the flock a lot (she does interact with them for a bit on and off), she doesn't want to want to eat the pellets (Dumor layer pellets) but she...
