    Gurgling noises when drinking water

    One of my hens has a loud gurgle whenever she drinks water. It happens every time she drinks. Is something wrong? She is a big hen and is not too active because of her weight. She acts overall healthy. Heres a video link to her drinking water https://vimeo.com/906915465?share=copy

    Showing signs of Gapeworm

    Hi, I had two chickens until yesterday. Now I have one and I'm beyond desperate to resolve this. My birds have been sick for two years now with respiratory issues. I have had the vet out on multiple occasions. I had suggested Gapeworm at one point and he said it wasn't (without testing, just...

    Gurgling and Spitting Up Clear Liquid When Sitting

    Hi, I have a 2.5 year old Rhode Island Red hen with some symptoms that have me a bit stumped. She has a history of ascites and was last drained mid-August and had been doing very well since. The last couple days she has been acting lethargic and her abdomen seemed to be filling with liquid...

    My 3-ish year old hen made gurgling noises when I put my ear next to her side.

    I remember hearing that gurgling in a chicken’s breathing means that something is wrong with the lungs, but I can’t be sure whether or not it is something serious. It doesn’t sound like gurgling coming from her breathing, and instead a noise similar to the gut digesting food. She is the only one...

    HELP! Hen making a gurgling sound!

    Ok, so I got 3 new hens last week. Gold laced Orpington, Black sex link, and a Cukoo maran. Today I got up and the Gold laced Orpington is making a gurgling sound. What do I do? Will she die? Will it spread to the rest of my flock? I didn't hear anyone else making the sound.

    Please Help, Sickly Chickens

    Today I picked up 6 pullets from a poultry supply store. It wasn’t ideal but I couldn’t find any local breeders this time of year. Upon inspecting them at home, I found poultry lice all over them and at least one of them was sneezing every minute or two. I’ve heard all chickens have a few lice...

    Sometimes I hear his stomach when he's not eating or drinking water. But I often hear gurgles when he drinks water. He's healthy and he's done this before. I probably first noticed it six or seven weeks ago. It was a bit stronger today. Any suggestions as to why his stomach gurgles? Could he...

    Gurgling/sneezing? Please help!

    hi everyone! I started with chickens this spring. They are now 20 weeks old. One of my GLW pullets started making a strange gurgling congested sound, accompanied by a head shake, almost like a sneeze or cough (I've never seen a chicken do either, so not sure!). It's been about 10 days now. It...
