Ribh, what terrible news. That is a lot to take in a few days, it seems everything bad happens all at once 😔. I am sorry for all the losses of your chickens.
I think we all hoped you had found a place to settle down a bit ; but now your situation is sorted out, hopefully you can finally find a...
I was given the link to a post that had pictures of fecal floats when I first joined BYC for a sick hen. Seeing those pictures I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to do that kind of identification myself. You need to have a good eye for small details. I know I don't ; I can never spot the queen...
Blood isn't mentioned as a main symptom here of coccidiosis, rather striking yellow diarrhea and thirst.
About paralysis, I'm beginning to wonder if it can't sometimes just be one of those generic symptom of illness, like being hunched up and lethargic ? I have had three of my birds act...
Very interesting, it would make me think different cats react differently to early weaning, maybe depending on their level of physical development.
And I suppose it's not only about the physical effects of weaning but the anxiety of being separated from their mum too early.
It is sad.
I don't know a lot about cats and I always had this notion that three months was the earliest age to get kitties. That was the age of ours when we got then.
Recently I was invited at a social event with people from the village and the woman had a one month old kitten. Apparently it's...
I am not an english native but I thought there was a suggestion in his post of like owner like pet 😂.
While weird and unusual is a compliment for many of us boring ordinary folks...i’ve yet to meet a boring chicken. Even the most unremarkable ones did one or two totally unexpected things at...
Was it the first time he travelled in a crate (apart from when you brought him home )?
I would have also been very worried. I don't know what would help him for next time. Does he have the crate usually accessible, so he is used to it ? Or maybe a few days before, leave him treats in the crate...
Thank you Lozzy and RC , that's good to know. I thought it was just a cat thing 😹 but I was still 5% worried he could be running a fever or having an issue.
He has grown HUGE !! I have trouble getting an idea of scale on pictures and I didn't realize up to now he was so big 🥰.
I am a day (or two) late, but I still have a cat question, especially seeing all your cats making themselves cosy.
It has turned to cool autumn weather here and it's under...
That is a wonderful picture. It looks like she thought you were disturbing her !
Honey found the mat with the right colour :love.
Hope everything is good for you.
Hibou maybe thought she needed to dry with the onions ?
I'm not sure if he looks adorable, or terrifying ! Must be like having a tiny cute vampire near your neck 🙂.
I hope he made you smile if he didn't fill the gap!
I took these this morning and then forgot to post, hope it's still saturday for you @Ribh.
Grochatila has claimed this box as his...
