darkwoodali Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 When I woke the girls up this morning I noticed one of them (Egg) kept doing a little squeak, a bit like a sneeze. This was after she'd had a rather vigorous session in the Grub so I'm wondering if she might have got a pellet stuck somewhere or if it's a sign of something else. Any ideas?

chick wiggle Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Maybe she just got some pellet dust up her nose, see how she is later, if she keeps sneezing try some Citronella in her water thats good for sniffles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Mine squeak sometimes, usually it is just dust up the beak, if they are caught squeaking more than a couple of times they get a quick squirt of nutri drops which always seems to do the job! I also have a clove of garlic in their water or cider vinegar or citronella, although they prefer puddles! Just keep an ear out and see if it was a one off squeak!

sari Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 My Leghorn barks and purrs, with the occasional squeak...I put tonic in the water with ACV, and garlic and spice in the feed, as I was so woried at first...but she is fine, and I assume this is just her..

metallica1 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 My Libby does that when shes pigged out on her crumb. It gives you a right shock at first. Now we know thats just Libby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 One of mine has done this for some months and in January had a respiratory infection. Following that it is far more frequent. I've taken her to vet and her chest is clear and she said ignore it It's sort of half way between sneeze and cough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkwoodali Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Yep, squeaking stopped so think it might well have been a bit of dust up there. Greedy thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
