    Hurt Chicken Is Wheezing

    One of my hens was attacked today and made her way back home to me (we let them free range). I’ve doctored her wound, isolated her, and she is eating and drinking. I couldn’t help but notice, though, that she sounds as if she’s wheezing. I know she’s in a lot of pain because of the type of wound...

    Hen Is Acting Strange

    We have had two cases of egg bound chickens in the two years of having them, but this feels different. It could be another matter, but I want to be sure.

    My Hen is Wheezing and Sneezing after laying first egg

    My hen laid her first eg about 4 hours ago and now she is making a loud wheezing sound and sneezes occasionally. Is this some sort of fungal or bacterial infection, or is this shock from laying her first egg? If it is an infection, what treatments can I use for her? I am in a cold and moist area.

    4 Month Old Muscovy Drakes Wheezing

    Hi :) I have two 4 Month old Muscovy Drakes that are making a wheezing sound. I have an adult male and it's not the same chuffing sound he makes at all, it's kind of a cross between that and a squeaky toy. It was only one male I was noticing it in at first but now after two days the other one is...
