Hello,
I have a 2 year old male pekin who has had a swollen, hot leg for several months, on and off. For the last few weeks it has been persistent and getting worse. We have taken him to the vet 3x now over the past year, and though the vet tries to help he is not really a specialist in poultry...
We are have two chickens, one escaped from some bird fighting people so we kept her and we got another to keep her company. We are very new to this. Now they seem to have got gapeworm or a respiratory illness. Not running nose but lethargy, closing eyes often and opening beak. The one is a...
We have just finished 3 days of Tylan with our rooster and he is back in with the girls after 24 hours stopping his last dose. I can't find any answers to see if the eggs from the hens after they mate with him should be tossed or if they are safe to eat (not to give away). None of the hens...
My laying hen is sick. She won't move or walk around, she stays in one spot. She won't open her eyes. She does NOT have a cough, nasal or eye discharge. She just buries her head in her back. She is minimally eating and drinking.
Here is what I have done:

I feel like it's always something. We've had our very first few cold days and nights (in the 40s/50s) in Texas this year and I'm wondering if that's just putting a lot of stress on my girls' immune systems.

Buckbeak, my 2yo Dark Brahma hen is losing all her feathers without seeming to grow any back. She currently has a secondary Bumblefoot infection, so she's in a crate in the garage. I've gave her 5 1/2cc shots of Tylan 50, went 4 days without, and gave her 2 more shots. The last shot was...
Does Di-Methox work for mycroplasmosis? I have some of that and I have tried to order Tylan but they don't sell that over the counter anymore. I need to treat asap as 2 chickens have died over night.
Thank you for your help!
Hello! First time poster here. I would appreciate advice regarding my chicken situation--sorry, it's kinda long:
I have six 1-1.5 year old chickens ( 1 rooster, 5 hens) in one coop and nine 16 week olds in a second coop. They share the same run, feeders, and waterers.
My roughly 1 year old...
