clucky chicken Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Hello to all - I have a very sick chicken at the moment, and am looking for a chicken vet - mine is not very confident - and therefore not very helpful - so am looking for one fairly quickly - none round here seem to be very au fait with the feathered kind! Please help! - Thanks to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I know its generalising but a vet in a more rural area may be a good idea, Corsham used to have an excellent vet called Mr Geering but I cant find him on Yell.com for you, maybe try somewhere like Box, they have a vets on the High street (or always used to when I lived there...) You might not find a avian specialist but you will probably find a decent farm vet Edited: try this search facility: http://www.rcvs.org.uk/Templates/system/FAVSearch.asp?NodeID=89660 On first search the Estcourt practice in Devizes is the one I would try phoning first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucky chicken Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 Hiya - thanks, will ring them - I have a girl with a really bad impacted and sour crop - am doing all I can with the help of all the lovely people on this site, but I'm just wondering whether she should perhaps have an operation - just want confirmation from the vet really - probably worrying about nothing, but as it's gone on for a while now, thought I'd get someone to check her over to make sure I'm doing everything right...
