    Emergency? Suddenly lethargic chicken

    My golden comet chicken, almost 5 months old, was suddenly very lethargic this morning. She didnt run out of the coop with the rest of the birds, and just stayed on her roosting bar.

    20 week old chick made a bloody poop?

    Hello everyone! I have a question. So me and my sister got 4 new chicks 20 weeks ago and they've been doing great until today. One of our chicks (named Chloe) started acting lethargic today.

    4mnth old BLRW - Blue laced red wyandottes: hen or roo?

    I return with my 3rd post of these 3 chickens, who are now almost 4 months old (3 months 3 weeks). Hopefully they will finally be old enough to definitively sex!

    Crop issue in underweight pullet - Sour Crop? Worms?

    One on my pullets passed suddenly yesterday which prompted a widespread inspection of the rest of the flock. This is the first year of having chickens and I thought things were going well - aside from the lice, which is another matter. I have one wyandotte pullet (~4ish months) who has always...

    My 4 month old buff Orpington hen is hiding a bush. She was fine right before and all the sudden she ran to the bush. We have no idea why we think she might be laying an egg, but she is only 4 months old. One of the chickens went on top of her and she started to do a “bagel” sound. We put them...

    4 Month Old Female Ducks Mixed

    My 4 month old silkie chick just started wheezing a little bit today, and she's been breathing with her beak open and throwing her head back. She's also sleepier than normal and has barely eaten anything. She's drinking well though. I don't really want to put her on anything else since she's...

    Selenium for wry neck

    I just got liquid selenium for my 4 month silkie to help her absorb all the vitamin E she's getting, but I have no way of measuring the correct dosage. I know selenium is highly toxic if a chicken gets too much. The bottle has a dropper but no labels. Anyone have any advice? I'm supposed to give...

    Pressure Sores or Infection?

    The silkie chick I'm treating for severe wry neck has these discolored spots in some places. I thought they were from her lice infestation but now that all the lice are gone, these spots have scabbed over but not gone away. She hasn't been able to stand or walk for a little over 2 weeks. I just...
