Ronnie Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 Need a bit of help please guy's. My mealy cock yearling came home 3 days late from a race and has been reluctent to fly but he would fly a bit.I put this down to fatigue and just left him to do his own thing.That was last week i let him out yesterday and noticed his right wing didnt look right so i called him in and checked it.It is all black from the shoulder down so i assumed he has banged it.Upon looking today his left wing look's like it may be going the same.You reckon he has had a real bad bang or could it be parathoid?.Any help please guy's.
Guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 It sounds like he has had a pretty bad blow. I don't think with paratyphoid that there is bruising, but for me, he's had a pretty bad bump.
Ronnie Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Posted May 9, 2007 He is showing no other symtons his stools are good he is driving round his box. Just dunno what to do.
Guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 Agree that this is injury rather than sickness. Needs rest & time to recover. As the bird has been out and about, maybe give him crushed garlic in its drinking water for a few days : to take care of anything its maybe picked up, and bring down the swelling and inflamation.

Guest Posted May 10, 2007 Report Posted May 10, 2007 Good luck with your two birds Ronnie! Remember, you only need one to win!! Hope the Mealy regains his flying wings quickly for you to help bolster your squad a little!
Ronnie Posted May 10, 2007 Author Report Posted May 10, 2007 Haha Thanks Davey ive just had a local fancier round to inspect the mealy he is amazed he made it home, both wings are badly bruised but he reckons no breaks so he is off for the rest of the season now and see how he does next year apart from that he seem's ok.This year is all about learning and i've learnt alot from the guy's on here and through experiance.Roll on youngbirds
