    Rooster Cheek Swollen - Possible Illness

    We have a really old rooster of about 9 to 10 years of age. Yesterday afternoon we noticed his right cheek had become swollen, and he had mucus or other discharge on his beak. At the time someone suggested he may have just been stung by something and he would recover, but it's been over 24 hours...

    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...

    Racoon attack, broken beak, thick mucus in mouth

    Hi. About a week and a half ago my hen got attacked by a racoon. I managed to save her from him even though he had her in his mouth. She had a head injury and a twisted jaw. Her eyes were swollen shut. I brought her back from the dead pretty much by cleaning her every day and nursing her wounds...

    Surprising red/orange mucus in poop - please advise!

    We are very new to backyard chickens but so far have successfully raised 8 newborn chicks to be an 8 week old happy healthy flock! One turned out to be a rooster, so about a week ago we gave him back to the farm we got them from, and they were kind enough to trade us a hen who they estimated to...

    Respiratory Illness? Serious?

    My 1-year-old Silkie Hen has had a swollen face the past few days. I just thought the mosquitos had gotten her, but I noticed today that she has thick white mucus in one of her eyes. And ideas as to what this could be? Should I separate her? Is it serious?

    White mucus

    Hi! today I noticed one of my Silkie’s bum area looked a little off. Sometimes with my Silkies when they poop it leaves little residue on the very tip of the fuzzy bum hair (assuming that’s it’s because of all that hair and it doesn't just plop straight down?) but hers had a white mucus coming...

    Opened the coop this morning and 26 of my 27 four week old littles came pouring out. One however was in a corner, head down eyes closed, breathing heavily. Immediately she was social distanced into the insulated brooder next to the woodstove. Picking her up I noticed her crop was still half full...

    Mucus buildup

    Hi, my gold laced orpington started laying two days ago. The problem started well before that but that’s just an age perspective. The last week or so she has been opening her mouth a lot like she’s chocking on something and trying to get it out. I’ve looked in her beak and there is nothing stuck...
