    Odd tumor removed by vet

    Does she have any yellow material inside her beak on that side or a bad odor? Sometimes canker can be inside the beak and protrude on the oitside. Also, I have seen a few of those turn out to be a tumor which a vet excised them. Is she eating and drinking okay?

    Weird poop

    Ii would keep her with her flock for comfort as long as she is not being bullied. Chicken feed with a little warm water and some scrambled bits of egg would be good to offer. Respiratory diseases can affect laying. Reproductive disorders can cause slow emptying of the crop and digestive tract...

    *WARNING GRAPHIC PHOTO* possible exploded blood clot on chicken

    That wound just looks too bad to survive. I would try to make her comfortable and warm. Treat for shock with water with sugar 1/2 tsp per cup or electrolytes. Hold gauze over her wound to try and stop bleeding. Separate her. You are the best judge as to whether or not she can survive this. I...

    Odd tumor removed by vet

    Do you have any pictures before or after the surgery? Peroxide may help with removing blood, but it needs to be rinsed off with water or irritates skin and causes itching. It may wear off in time with dust bathing.

    *WARNING GRAPHIC PHOTO* possible exploded blood clot on chicken

    Oh my, is she still alive or did she die? Could she have been pecked or attacked? That is what it looks like. Blood and yellow skin could be from fatty liver hemorrhagic disease, but if she was attacked that may not be the case. Cancer could also be a possibility. Was she in the coop or outside...

    Marek's? One of the symptoms is a foul smelling diarrhea

    Sorry for your loss. I hope that it was not Mareks. It would be good to get a diagnosis which can be done with a necropsy and pcr testing if you should lose another bird.

    8 week pullet eye looking funky

    The eye looks to have a corneal abrasion from the pox. That might benefit from the triple antibiotic ointment as well. There is a vaccine for birds not yet exposed to fowl pox in places like where you live. Most birds that get pox, are immune to getting it in the future. Here is where to...

    Hen with scaly dry swollen skin on face

    It could be favus, a fungal infection, that can spread and cause feather loss. It causes a white chalky residue on comb, face, wattles and the head. Miconazole or Monistat cream, or clotrimazole are creams that may help it. Apply with a disposable glove. You can enlarge some pictures of favus in...

    Pale face, doesn’t seem well

    DE is not the best thing for mites, but UK doesn’t sell permethrin. Can you get ivermectin pour-on there? Could your vet office help to advise you? Liver (chopped) or poultry tonic with iron may be helpful to her.

    Worm infestation??

    Sorry for your loss. With her upright position, I suspect she had salpingitis and egg yolk peritonitis. The yellow urates in the droppings are common with that. If you still have her body, and would like to do a home necropsy to take a look at her organs and take pictures, that could help us to...

    8 week pullet eye looking funky

    Yes, you can apply a warm wet compress to the eye. It should be able to open in a few minutes. The ointment may help prevent it from crusting shut.

    What is this

    Scratch has low protein, only 7%. I would only use it very rarely as a treat. All flock or flock raiser feed has 20% protein, and can be used to increase the protein, as long as you have a little crushed oyster shell for extra calcium for layers. A little scrambled egg bits tossed to each of...

    Baby chick with a swollen neck, cant stand (video included)

    Can the chick move it’s neck the other way? It might have wry neck (torticolis) which can be a sign of a vitamin E or B1 thiamine deficiency. Does her neck feel firm or puffy like air under the skin? I would get some Poultry NutriDrench or Poultry Cell vitamin tonic, and five her a couple of...

    Bad molt and fowl pox at the same time

    It would be best to see an actual picture of your chicken. Terramycin has become hard to get without a prescription or vet. I have used plain Neosporin/triple antibiotic in my chicken’s eye. Some people who have cataract surgery may have some leftover antibiotic ointment.
