Fluid lump
« on: March 30, 2012, 18:44 »
Hi everyone

My chicken seems to have got a squishy fluidly growth on her Brest, any ideas what it might be??

Recently lost one chicken to gape worm but she didn't have this squishy thing!

Cheers

Andy

it sounds like sour crop - open her beak and sniff. Does it smell off?
Staffies are softer than you think.

Just did the massage to make her sick and oh my word not what you want after a curry!!!

She went straight for a drink then moved about and has now gone to bed.  Going to grab some yoghurt from the tesco express if I can fight past the idiots queuing fit petrol that is!

Thanks for advice joyful

Going getting two more girls next week do flock expanding to 7!

Hi,

Will the fluid eventually reduce over time? Going to feed her with the yoghurt today

We've had 2 girls (different occasions) with sour crop in the past (both ex-batts) and we 'barfed' them a couple of times each to remove all the stinky squishy stuff. The first round didnt seem to clear it all. I think we'd have brought them in as well,to monitor what they were eating and drinking. Just watch your trousers and shoes when you do it ;)
