Well, I don't know how things are going to turn out in the long run but.. I did my first surgery on one of my chickens this morning. Found out my hen had been internally laying. She was full of what seemed like cooked yolks. The total size of the mass was about the size of a baseball, if not...

Hen is doing worse again. I am starting to think it is some kind of mass inside her. Has anyone ever tried to perform surgery on their own? I at this point am wondering of there is a possability to save her. Or is there no hope and she should be put out of her misery. I now have another chicken...

A tumor has crossed my mind. I did inspect er insides, What I found when I inserted my finger was hard, thick poop in her. I tried to feel for an egg like mass but what I felt seemed more like intestine that was impacted. Not quite sure how this could have happened. On the bright side she is...

Can no one help me? Please, I am begging for help here...

My WPR hen, I thought she was egg bound. I brought her inside, put her in warm water to soak, and started to feel around. What I thought was an egg now feels like a large, hard, lumpy mass around where her intestines would be. Could she be constipated? If so, how do I treat it? Do I give her...
