  1. What are these warts?

    Today I noticed these warts on my chicken, she has one on her beak and one on her right or left ear. I did a quick google search and it says it might be fowl pox. I think there are no treatments for fowl pox but vaccines. How can I treat these warts and what even is it? Thanks

I did everything I was told, remove the pus, salt bath, etc. That helped the other foot out, but one of the feet didn’t get better. Instead it got purple. Asked an old lady I...

    Hello! I have had chickens for about 5 years now and I recently added four new chickens to the flock and everything was going fine until about two weeks after we integrated them.

  10. Coccidiosis or Something Else?

    I have 3YO Barred Rock Hen who is just plain not looking so hot. She is very dull looking compared to his sisters. Her comb and waddles are very pale (her comb is flopping over to side a bit too), she hardly moves. She walks very lamely, only a few feet or so, then just lies there, closing her...

  11. Is this normal for a turkey?

    My two month old broad breasted turkey has a big, what looks like a growth, on its breast. This is my first time growing turkeys so am I just freaking out over nothing? Simple Google search says it could just be a fatty deposit which is normal, or blisters. I'm just concerned because none of the...

    Adult duck trembling legs, won’t sit

    I have an adult duck (3-4 years old) whose legs are trembling a bit when she walks. I just noticed yesterday and made a note to keep an eye on her, and realized today that I haven’t seen her sit or lie down since then. She’s either walking around or just stands still to rest. Otherwise she seems...

    My family member bought like 10 chickens from some guy online. They were delivered to us and they were all low energy, pale a droopy combs.

    I don't know what's wrong with my chicken

    About a week ago, my chicken suddenly stopped laying eggs. She was standing around, and then sat while puffed up. We gave her some calcium through her water and food. We assumed she was egg bound, so we gave her a warm bath, dried her off and then put her in a dark area. This was 2 days after we...
