The vet based it on the fact that all the birds got sick at once, and that it was the only thing that they had access to to eat. The vet thought that it was food born, but I need the feed tested to confirm. But how to get the feed tested is the issue.

To Start out the ducks have mostly recovered and are now doing ok. I went to check on my Flock on Tuesday and I found my 1 duck dead 2 having seizures and the rest shaking and acting very strange. No injuries, no holes in the enclosure, they had plenty of fresh water, and it was not a hot day...

About 2-3 weeks

I was out doing errands today when I was near a different feed store and found they had the duravet B Complex in stock. is this the one you were talking about?

I was going to get the B complex at the feed store but we’re all out. So I grabbed what I thought to be the next best thing. Is there anything I can buy at the pharmacy or grocery store that will do the trick. Will human vitamin B complex work and what would be the dosage?

I have her in a medium dog crate with some food and water but today her leg is still the same. I got her the poultry cell which had B12, but I couldn’t get the just B12. The local Feed store is out of that supplement. I also placed her in the pool today and let her clean herself. I also helped...

I also forgot to mention that I separate the males from the females, except for when they’re all outside together

Here is another I highly doubt it was a predator since I usually only let them out when I can watch them and I didn’t have the chance yesterday and she was walking just fine so it happens sometime either last night or this morning

The duck is 2 years old, I feed all flock feed, and normally give vitamins to the water. When a baby she was given the vitamin B complex and the duravest vitamin and mineral water additives. My main concern is her all the suddenly not being able to walk wel. And severely limping. Let me see...

For background information, this duck was born with wry neck and still has an issue from that, but was corrected as best I could so she already has a weird gate and her neck is always weird. But other than that she has been relatively healthy and active. But today I went to the coop and I saw...

I like teaching a recall command with all my poultry. I make a certain sound that goes along with a treat or food. So whenever I make the sound all my birds come running. To get them in the coop I stand in the run with food and when everyone is in I lock them up for the night. Mealworm or fly...

Here is Pumpkin ! No snow but it’s still cold.

I have some broiler turkeys that I plan on having for Thanksgiving and I noticed two of my turkeys have weird lumps near the beak I was wondering is there something I can do for it or is it even worth doing anything with them being butchered in a few weeks.

Have you tried a rooster collar? The bird can breathe and do things normally, but when he goes to crow It gets tight and the roo does not like it. It takes a few days to a week to work but eventually, he will not crow as much. I have never used, even with all 11 of my roosters. I don't mind...

I give mine the Friskies salmon, pate, or any other seafood pate, cat food. It has omega-3’s and other fatty acids as well as proteins that are not normally found in chicken food and they’re good for your chickens, coat and body condition. Also, I will give them dog food that is 75% off at...
