    Vomiting Rooster

    Thanks. I'll look online for the grit. I'll keep monitoring him as well but so far so good. Thank you for the advice.

    Vomiting Rooster

    Checked his crop this morning and it was empty. He's alert and eating/ drinking as normal. No vomiting so far. He's about the same as he usually is. Hopefully that's a good sign🤞

    Vomiting Rooster

    Unfortunately it was already late when I posted this and he and his girlfriend were already cuddling in their tree. I tried to lure him down, because contrary to the way he's acting right now he likes my cuddles, but he's not interested. I'll have to check him tomorrow. And yeah I usually don't...

    Vomiting Rooster

    Hello all. I have a young rooster, about 4 months old. He was fine the entire day but now suddenly he's vomiting. The vomit is a pink colour and I'm pretty sure it's a result of him getting into the cats food. After he vomits he seems to be fine and even tries to eat the vomit😖 But I don't...

    Rejected Single Chick

    I'm a bit late to the party but I had something similar happen. The mother accepted the chick at first then one day just started to be mean to it. I thought she was just being a strict mom because he's a bit mischievous, but as I watched her she continued to be really abusive towards him until I...

    Sudden loss of balance

    Ironically that's what i call her! I gave her and all her siblings names that fit their personalities and she's the most posh of the lot so I call her Cutie :D And she's definitely better. No more balance issues and quite active. I'll keep a beady eye on her for another few days but I think...

    Sudden loss of balance

    I'm not sure of the breed. I adopted them after their mom randomly showed up and hatched her eggs in my yard and left them. This is her. Sorry it's taken so long. In between being busy and catching her while she's playing mortal kombat with her siblings, this is the best pic I could take before...

    Sudden loss of balance

    No when I said sneezing and pasty butt I simply meant she's been healthy since she hatched. When I read the symptoms it mentioned depression and so on so I was just basically saying she hasn't exhibited any symptoms of any kind, even of common illnesses. This is the first time she's been ill...

    Sudden loss of balance

    She mainly eats the Pullet grower from the feed store. For treats I usually give them some scrambled eggs or plain greek yogurt with oats (they love that), ripe tomatoes are also a favourite. And of course there's the bugs they catch on their own. I'll get those vitamins later today. She still...

    Sudden loss of balance

    Hello I have a 10 week old chick that suddenly lost her balance yesterday. I let her and her siblings out for a run and everything was normal. I noticed her and a few of her sisters laying down after a while and thought nothing of it as they usually stop to rest after running and pecking...

    8 weeks old chick has saliva in mouth and slight lump under chin

    I'm in the Caribbean. And no we tried to maneuver the hair as gently as possible. It was wrapped pretty tight so I think that's where the lump under her chin came into play. A little inflammation probably. It's gone down a bit now. Hopefully it disappears soon. But her tongue did sustain some...

    8 weeks old chick has saliva in mouth and slight lump under chin

    Update: So I gave her some water mixed with apple cider vinegar this morning because there were some brown pieces of what looked like bug at the side of her mouth. I figured she might be having some trouble with digestion only for her to start gagging after drinking a little. When we shined the...

    8 weeks old chick has saliva in mouth and slight lump under chin

    I'm not sure if she always has that lump. I don't think so. The others don't have it. The lump seems to contribute to the issue in some way. When I apply light pressure her mouth pops open and her tongue rises. She seems to be having a little more difficulty swallowing this morning. She still...

    8 weeks old chick has saliva in mouth and slight lump under chin

    This is her. The pics aren't that great but hopefully you can see them. One is her poop right after she had a meal. Another one is under her chin but that might be a bit blurry. I'll have to try and get pictures of inside her mouth later because she's not cooperating right now. I gave her some...

    8 weeks old chick has saliva in mouth and slight lump under chin

    I will take some pictures later when I get home. I mostly feed her oats and grains/wheat. She's always catching bugs though. And I give her scrambled eggs with garlic and also greek yogurt occasionally as I hear those help with her immune system. Honestly i'm so green at this that I don't have...

    Hello

    I'm not sure what a feral flock is but maybe?😅 Their mom is still around along with a couple other hens and some roosters. My neighbour actually brought home a hen and rooster, I think he was going to try his hand at some type of poultry farm, but he up and moved away and left them behind, so...

    8 weeks old chick has saliva in mouth and slight lump under chin

    Hello everyone. I am new to chick rearing and am panicking a bit here. One of my 8 weeks old chicks has seemed a bit lethargic since yesterday but she ate and drank with her siblings as normal. Today she seems even more out of it and I noticed there was some drool on the sides of her beak. When...

    Hello

    Hello Everyone. I'm new here. I've recently seemed to have adopted 8 baby chicks! Thier mom is around but doesn't seem that interested in them so my sister and I have taken on the role until they can roam safely on their own. Looking forward to learning how to care for these babies.
