    Pullet with scabby cheek and swollen throat

    I have a group of Belgian Liege fighter chicks about 5 weeks old. Yesterday, suddenly, two of them looked like they had scabby cheeks and seemed a bit tired and hunched. I also noticed the skin beneath their beaks was a little swollen and felt warm to the touch. The next day, one of them was...

    Silkie Gender Identification

    I know it's almost impossible to tell unless they're laying but these are my first silkies, could anyone give me their guesses on gender? I'm betting the red comb is a roo and probably mixed considering it has pink feet too. There are 2 pictures of each, 4 birds total. Thanks guys! ❤️

    Ancona Duck with yellowing of eyes and bumblefoot

    Help! I got an Ancona female a couple weeks ago and just noticed today she has bumblefoot, so I am treating and she is in a dog kennel on dry straw inside the duck run.

    Strange illness in flock

    I posted a couple of weeks back about some of my flock being sick. I treated them with Corid and I did a round of dewormer for good measure.
