I have a female Golden Manchurian Coturnix Quail who is not walking and laying on her back. First then she got stuck in the cloth wire on my cage a few hours ago. She had a big poop/dirt clump on her right foot and after I freed her she seemed to be walking around fine. But now when I went out...

I've got home and upon further inspection ( hope this makes sense) the strands coming out of the feather root/ centre thing are very short ( on her back) also she has quite watery...
I recently noticed droppings with shed intestinal lining in them (pinkish strands that look like raw meat). My 7 hens are about 15 months old and have never been wormed. They are eating and drinking normally, and otherwise their droppings look good. I haven't found the culprit of the couple...
I have a 4 fully grown quail, 3 hens, and a rooster. Their droppings usually never smelled that bad however recently it's been unbearable to the point I have no choice but to fully clean and disinfect their cage every day. I have been feeding them manna pro gamebird feed all their life, water...
One of my coturnix quail dropped dead out of nowhere- perfect health, she was old, except I noticed green poop around the pen. The urate is green, I think, not the poop itself. Should I be worried about my other quail? What could cause this?
My chick is only a day old and she has curly toes. we put a boot on her but she walks on her legs and not her feet. She's not eating and cant really stand up properly. She is pooping but hasn't ate. PLEASE HELP me I've already lost a couple chicks and can't loose another. She had trouble...
We have a six week old wood duckling who never seemed to have a problem eating food dry. Suddenly we’ve noticed that starting this afternoon he’s not eating from his dish at all like he normally does and will only eat feed from in his water dish so it’s fully soft to the point of falling apart...
Hi all,
I have a 2-year-old Partridge Olive Egger named Jennie who has recently been re-introduced to our other two hens following an injury from our rooster that she had to recover from. Today when I was holding her I realized that she was leaking a clear, odorless fluid from her vent. It...
My 19 weeks old hybrid hen poop watery! Is it normal? Beside pooping and puking, she seem fine and healthy. She eat, drink, lay an egg and walk around just like every normal hen does. Also, she use to puke water too.
Ps. I live in the hot climate and the other hen that live with her seem fine...
Hey everyone,
My chicks were doing great for 2-3 days after they hatched until one started sleeping too much all of a sudden. With closer inspection, I saw the Yellow Draining Poop that Reeked of Puss. I assumed it was Vent Gleet after researching chicken poop but it died only 1 hour after it...
I have been seeing some red in my chicken's poop for a few days now, and have thought nothing of it because they have been enjoying a summer treat of watermelon. This time it had been a few days and I was still seeing small bubbles of red in my chicken's poop. Not often, but not too...
My partner wanted me to create a new thread so that it could reach a larger amount of people, so here it is. Our previous thread is under the same name and can be reached from my page.
We have been raising a previously abandoned duckling together for 7 weeks now. In the beginning, we struggled...
If you use poop boards, do you care if your girls walk on them? Do they track poo elsewhere? Have any good tricks for keeping them from doing that?
I'm exploring options for a challenging and confining location. Flock of 12 (half ISA brown, half Plymouth Rock). Current idea is 6x8...
Hello
One of my hens has regular poop sometimes but other times has runny poop. The poop was a small amount today and was almost clear with a little cloudiness to it. Sometimes there is a big splat, with a little regular poo and a lot of liquid. Should I be concerned? How should I help her?
Hey everyone. My sweet Duchess seems to be ill, so this has been a rough time for me. What she has doesn’t appear to be contagious- (it’s likely ovarian infection) but I still fear my two other girls, Mary and Biscuit, could be at risk of getting something. I just wanted to run some pictures by...

I ha e a question about poop! I know healthy poop comes in all varieties but.... I would like a knowledgeable person to take a look. Probably not from same chicken. Have one Roo with three hens.
I have 6 2 weeks old quail and I'm housing them in a midwest ground guinea pig cage. The cage doesn't have a wire bottom which means I have to clean it out every day to prevent it from smelling (man do they poop a lot). I'm considering using some sort of non-toxic cat litter or sand as bedding...
Hello just want to know if this is normal.. When she's outside she poops normal size poop is say but once I brink her indoors or when she's out in the patio she tends to pebble size poop. Is this normal?... I have attached a phony of the poop she does every now and then. The poop seems like it...
Over the last 50 years that i have raised chickens i have tried every type of bedding material for bedding and all of them require changing out almost daily to keep down odor moisture and the chicks clean and healthy. None of the traditional beddings are as effective as a 2" layer of very dry...
