Thank you for your kind words. I will continue to treat for coccidiosis and hope for the best!🤞 I suspected ocular Marek’s but wasn’t sure because she doesn’t have the pinpoint pupils. But her other symptoms align with the link you sent 😞 I was also hopeful that because she’d been vaccinated...
I started treating with Corid yesterday because I didn’t know what else it could be! These are her poops from this morning. They are liquidy and greenish brown and are quite smelly.
Her eyes are grey and the pupils are both equally dilated and do not respond to light. Is this normal for...
Hi BYC fam,
Any idea what could be going on with my little chick? She is supposed to be a crested cream legbar and is 12 weeks old. I got her and her sister as day olds to add to my small existing flock of 3. They are vaccinated against Mareks.
I kept them inside and separate from the older...
Our chickens poop on a poop board that is cleaned daily and generates little to no dust. I don’t wear a mask for that. For the once a year spring cleaning of the coop, I do wear a mask because it’s dusty!
Hi there from a fellow Canadian in Quebec! I was looking to add some Sasso hens to our small backyard flock. How have your Sasso’s been? Do they lay well? Have they handled the cold, and are they noisy? Thank you!!
Hi there from a fellow Canadian in Quebec! How have your Sasso hens been? Have they handled the cold well, do they lay a lot, are they quiet? I am thinking to add a few to our backyard flock. Thank you!
Yes! Very similar! I did all the same things, and this went on for almost one month but sadly she passed this morning. 😞 I’m happy to hear your chicken is healthy!!

Sadly she died this morning 😭 I was giving her scrambled eggs and meat and vitamin water, as well as her Vit B complex and Vit E everyday. I had made her a chicken sling/hammock so she wouldn’t soil herself and was doing ‘physical therapy’ with her legs everyday. Her legs started...
Weeks!! Ok so I should not give up! I’ve been giving her the vitamins for a week, plus Nutri Drench, plus scrambled eggs, as well as her chick crumble. Hopefully will see an improvement soon. 🤞 Thank you @nuthatched!
Hi Tookie!
Hope you’re well! How long is it supposed to take before we see an improvement, if it’s a vitamin deficiency?
It’s been 1 week of giving her Vit B complex 1/2 tab and Vit E 400 IU and she has not shown any improvement. I would say she is slightly worse. She lays down most of the...
She can use her legs a little bit. She can sort of stand but is very wobbly and quickly falls over. I went to get some pictures of her and she tried to stand and walk but then fell near her food. She was able to get back up (very wobbly) and go into her shelter where she sat and closed her eyes...
Hi all!
I have a 10 week old crested legbar mix pullet. She has been outside since she was 6 weeks old and was doing great.
Since yesterday, she is very weak, can’t stand, or when she does, she falls over. So she has been mostly just sitting. She will still eat and drink if I bring her food...
Hello!
I recently got 2 chicks that are supposed to be female crested cream legbars. They’re now about 6-7 weeks old.
The beige-ish one does have a crest but the colouring of the feathers and legs seem off. Legs are yellowish with a green tinge. I do think this is a hen.
The grey one is...
