Does anyone know how to deactivate?

Not until he had the pox. I had a necropsy done on one of my deceased chickens. He had pox and respiratory illness. What else can cause the walking issue?

I have had 2 chickens die and another came ill. The conclusion was avian pox and a respiratory ailment for one of the deceased. I gave my sick roo 1cc of Tylan 50 for 4 days, once a day. He doesn't act sick except for that he is still walking heavy and walks with his legs bent. Will this go...

Yesterday I have him the 4th shot (1 cnce a day). He does stand but he is also still walking heavy. He also walks with hos legs bent. He doesn't act sick except for that. Is this something that will go away with more time? None of the others are showing any signs and the pox looks like it's...

The other two are banty (sp) roos. I will get them some ladies after the pox has cleared out of my flock. Maybe in the spring

My Muscovy egg is the size of a large chicken egg

I have one with my hens

I have 3 roos... I COULDN'T choose, so I made a bachelor pad for them. They are just fine and get along.

I have 4 female ducks. 3 pekin and 1 Muscovy. I found an egg Wednesday and another yesterday. I'm thinking it belongs to my Muscovy. How often do pekins and Muscovies lay? Will pekins lay this late or wait until spring? (They haven't started laying yet)

Ok, thank you!

Good lol. He's standing all the way up and prettying himself now.

I will be ordering from a hatchery from now on.

I didn't get them from a breeder.. I got them from a poultry mkt. Lesson learned. I have no idea where the pox came from but they are free ranged most of the day. He's the only one sick right now and he's been separated so it hopefully won't spread any further. I'm just glad I know how to treat...

Nm, a little pressure and he stopped bleeding. He's standing ALL the way up... I hope he is well soon

I gave him 1cc (saw it on another thread) under his skin on the back of his neck and he started bleeding. Is that normal??
