Hello everyone, I have a 3 year and 9 month old leghorn hen who has seemingly been going through vent gleet. It all started about 3 days ago when i started seeing a “messy” butt. I pulled her in today and smelled her butt. As a result, her butt smelled like human urine. The color of those messy...

Hello all, Today when I got home my hen has been acting very strange, she started waddling (walking like if something is bothering her in between her legs) she has been laying and has definitely played 10+ I have no idea what's wrong with her. Her comb has black tips and it is now floppy when...

Hello! I have a baby Salmon Faverolles who was active and spunky Thursday and Friday; running, eating, drinking, curious about everything, very social. Today she has been unsocial, sets herself away from the others. She just stands where placed then eventually lays there. It’s been a huge...

Hello everyone, My 3 year and 4 month old leghorn hen has just been experiencing a hard/solid crop and is repeatedly adjusting her crop (even when she is roosting/sleeping). She is still acting perfectly fine, eating/drinking normally and is active. I'm not so sure about how her poop looks like...

Hello everyone, My 3 year and 3 months leghorn hen has been experiencing a bloated abdomen lately. A few days ago, she was egg bound as i saw her pushing, but soon after I didn’t see any egg come out of her and she was fine afterwards. Then I started to see her abdomen looking unusual and big...

To cut straight to the point, I have this little pullet I love dearly, she’s the sweetest chicken I have ever owned so far. Recently however she hasn’t been doing so good, first I realised she’d tip over a bit when walking fast. however now it’s to the point where she can’t even stand up...

Hello all, as you may know from my other posts, Pebble has been sick for a long time (though still happy and active for a lot of the day, she’s also suffering a lot). Today we’re putting pebble down at the vet. This morning, something was wrong with our other chicken, olive. We took her to the...

I have searched online for hours and no one seems to have a similar issue. The turkey is about 2 1/2 months old, and has grown well sense the beginning and is always pale and when you pick it up is always shaky. We’ve tried high protein, different feed, electrolytes, probiotics, nothing works...

Hello everyone, I just woke up this morning to let my 3 chickens out and they were all completely fine. Then, in the afternoon, my 2 year & 10 month old female easter egger, started to have her tail down, eye closed but she still wanted to eat and could peck. But whenever she peck she would...

Hello everyone, I need your help right now, my 2 year & 10 month old leghorn hen started laying soft shelled eggs a month ago. I started to feed her 1 calcium tablet (600mg) daily for 4 days but didn't see her lay an egg anymore, so I stopped with the tablets. At that time, she was still acting...

Hello everyone, I have a leghorn hen that is 2 year & 9 months old and today she was acting very lethargic with her feathers down, tail down. I came to the suspicion that she could of been suffering from vent gleet since her vent is all dirty and wet with this white discharge. I also noticed...

Okay so my rooster just recently died and i’m not sure why. He’s around a year old and had been acting weird the past few days. He was acting lethargic and tired. I didn’t notice him not eating/drinking but I don’t think he was doing much of either. A few days ago i decided to take a look at him...

Hello, I’ve been having issues with my chicks, I think they’re sick. There were 10 and they are around four days old, and two days ago we found one very lethargic in their chick box. We picked her up, put her on a heated blanket while watching her and ordered sav-a-chick. The first was a black...

I’ve had a cough for a couple of days and no other symptoms. I was just wondering if my chickens can get sick from me? I know they have sensitive respiratory systems so I don’t want to get them sick.
