    Muscovy Ducks Day 32–internally pipped but bruised, is that ok?

    Hello there! My Muscovy ducks are on day 32, and I have a few that have internally pipped. All of them are quite active and I hear chirping. One of my eggs looks like it is starting to slightly bruise right where the little guy has been pecking. Is that ok? This is my first time with duck eggs...

    Bruised Turkey

    Hello, my 1 year old tom was chased by a dog and fell on a hard surface a few times. It’s been 3 days and he now has bruising along his underside (chest and belly). He won’t stand but he is eating and drinking. How long should I expect for recovery? Anything I should be doing up help him?

    Bruised duck beak?

    I’ve been away currently at uni and have left my ducks in the care of my parents. They’ve told me my male duck seems to have bruising on his beak and was curious to know if he’s just hurt himself or if it could be something else? He seems alright within his self but his beak isn’t looking the best.

    Concerned that a person attacked chicken - see pics

    Hi Everyone I have 6 hens and one rooster and have had them for almost a year. They all behave very friendly. This past Sunday morning we discovered one of our chickens had a brutal wound to the back of the head. The picture doesn’t do full justice, but there is a large gash of a hole that...

    Facial injury with discoloration

    My 7-8 week old Cream Legbar had her face scratched by a possum on Tuesday night (we caught it and fixed the weakness in her housing). It seemed fine, but then I noticed that it is a green color above the wound. My daughter also thinks her face looks a little more red than usual. Is there...

    Rooster attacked by opossum

    I have a rooster that got attacked by a opossum two days ago. He was unable to stand and his leg is bent backward. He can still move both leg and wing on his right side but you can tell it’s not right and maybe broken or sprain. He is alert, eating, and drinking very well. His puncture wound was...

    Hen with dead looking wattle?

    I have this hen that I received about a month and a half ago. Today I noticed one of her wattles looks sort of bad. Maybe bruised? I did introduce her to the flock a few days ago, but it doesn't seem fresh. Never seen this before, not even on the other hens that were introduced. Thoughts?

    injured leg help

    I'm not sure what happened to this gal but she's been limping for a week. She's still eating and drinking plus moving around during the day. Until last night she had been going up the ladder to her roost. Last night she was at the bottom of the ladder sleeping so I moved her to be with the...

    Older Chicken not walking or eating

    Hi there, one of my older hens isn't walking and isn't interested in food or water. I can get her to drink but can't get her to eat. She is still pooping and I know she's not egg bound because she hasn't been laying eggs in over a year or so. I gave her an Epsom salt bath and when I got her out...

    Chicken Limping: Hurt Leg or Foot?

    Hi All, We have two chickens, one barred rock and one RIR, that are limping around as such. We have a wide open field but it just seems odd to me that two of our 200 just started doing it at the same time. It looks to me like it is more like her foot is injured rather than her leg. Any thoughts...
