Thanks. I saw it down his throat pretty far. He was able to get some food and water down there. But it was difficult because he lost a ton of weight. I was very attached to him. I hatched him from an egg. He was a very sweet pretty rooster his name was Sweet pea

He died

I gave him a dose again today I wish I didn’t now. I think he is dying. And yes he has been battling this for a while. It took me a while to get meds then powders were not working just got tablets and now he is dying. I really hope I didn’t over dose him. I cut the tablets and it was around 50mg...

Not sure if he picked up a virus or something can I give him tylan while he has been taking this fish zole. Yesterday he looked the same I went to work early didn’t check on him this morning because it was dark came home and he can’t keep his eyes open standing but super weak almost tipping...

Yesterday he had a lot of mucus but acted normal

So this is 3rd day of fish zole I came home he looks way worse worse than he has been seen he got the canker he is completely weak can hardly stand. Should I stop fish zole

Which dose did you use and for how long?

Also can I use the copper sulfate in water at the same time as he is getting the fish zole. He is very mucusy

On different threads here I’ve heard some did twice a day some once some say 50mg per kg once a day some did 50kg twice a day

Ok my tablets are almost in rooster is hanging in there but still thin and can canker. If it’s 50mg per pound and he is 2 pounds would it be 1/4 tablet per day, I’m also reading 50mg per pound twice a day?

Thanks for replying and for the info. Again I’m so sorry. Did you get another friend for your hen? Is she still healthy?

I’m so sorry. Do you think is was cancer or something else not a canker?

Any updates. I’m having a similar problem with my rooster

I’ve been making small batches and syringe feeding him it a few times a day to be sure he gets some. Not sure if it’s enough

So update is he more active and eating more he has gained weight but I still see canker on one side of his throat. I still don’t have tablets. I think I’m going to try another round of the powder I put in water. Any other suggestions ?
