Issue presented itself about 4 days ago and all I've been able to think and do is isolate, give her asprin and soak her food...she looks to be in severe pain and I don't have any idea what is wrong with her. Would it be a broken neck? She doesn't...

    Chick was stuck in egg, now neck is weird

    I just hatched a batch of coturnix quail chicks and at least one of them got stuck in the egg. Two were fine once I helped get the shell off, but the third must have been like that for a while because it's neck is still twisted to the side like it's still in the egg. All chicks are now in the...

    Should I be concerned?

    I have two Rouen ducks. Not sure of their sex yet but am concerned about one that has deep grooves/lines on his neck. Can anyone tell me if this is something to be concerned about? I also have noticed feathers on his legs. Is this normal?
