My 4 day old male chick is seemingly very healthy but has weird brown spots at the ends of each of his toes. He bites his toes a lot so he may be in pain. I will attach a picture of what I am talking about. Could this be bumble foot? I have never seen that look like this before. I do not think...

I have some ducks hatching soon and I would like to know if I can use tap and hose water for my ducks. While they’re small I would like to let them swim in the bath tub/sink. When they get older the plan is to get them a kiddie pool and fill it up with water. This is my first time hatching...

I haven’t seen any sicknesses or heard any wheezing. None of my other birds seem to have symptoms so far. There were fires in the area and lots of smoke over the last few days. Does this look like a respiratory infection or maybe a pecked eyeball? It’s swollen with little bubbles

My female chick has trouble pooping.... So what she does is slightly lifts her wings up and pushes. It does come out but when she poops she squacks really loud. And sometimes it takes 1min for her to fully get it out. Her poop looks completely normal I think. And I'm not sure if it's pasty but...
