Ok thanks...They do have other sources of water, mostly puddles! Hopefully it dries up here soon. I will try to create a pen to keep them in as I also don't want to leave the medicated water out in case our cats go and drink it.

Hello, My chickens seem to have Coccidiosis :( We don't have a vet near who can diagnosis but they have all the symptoms and 2 chickens have just recenty passed. I ordered the CORID 20% soluble powder and it just arrived today after a 3 week wait for it! I read here on the forum the dosages...

Ok thank you... I am not sure what is wrong with my hen. She is all puffed up and not really eating much. I thought it would be worth a try to give her a little boost.

Hello, I have 3 hens that have passed away in the last 2 months ;( Today a 4th is not looking well. We are really not sure what is wrong with them... We treated them with garlic for a while in case it was worms but that didn't help much. I just ordered the poultry nutri drench. I am wondering...

Hi, I know this is an old post but just looking for insight about the dosage. is it 1cc driectly from this bottle? Or 1cc of the diluted solution (4oz/ gallon of water)??

I am treating my hen for doughy crop right now with this mixture. We are on day 2 of treatment. She is partially impacted with long grass. Her poops are coming out very sticky and green. What do you feed your hen while you are treating them?? I have tried the bread in oil, eggs and baby food...

My hen is dealing with the same problem right now and I have started this spice mixture today minus the baking soda. What else did you feed your hen during the day while you were treating her? She is just so thin and frail right now...

Ok thank you! I am giving her the fungal cream twice a day. What dosage do you suggest? I am giving 1cc now 2x/day. Should I give more?

So Rosemary was looking like she was slightly improving yesterday and now this morning she is really not looking good again. I started the yeast meds friday so 3 days of treatment so far. She still has quite a bit of liquid on her crop. She drinks a lot but hasn't really eaten much since...

Ok thanks! She is drinking a lot!

Crap crap crap :eek: I bought a box this morning labelled dulcolax and gave her half a suppository around 1pm...just read your post and then re-read the box...it is a laxative and not a stool softner!! Shit...is this going to make her worse or have more pain? Poor little hen :(

Ok thank you! Going to give her the laxative and the yeast meds today...do you give them at the same time or space them out. Laxative first and then yeast med a few hours later?

Rosemary has made it through the night though she is not looking any better today. She is very lethargic and having trouble standing. I just let her rest with no food or water in the night. About 2 hours ago we tried the 2 tsp of cold coconut oil and massage. The crop DID seem to go down a bit...

I have already tipped her just slightly forward for a couple seconds quite a few times today and lots of liquid spills out. Despite her drinking hardly any water she continues to balloon up. I am just not understanding where the liquid inside her is coming from if she is not drinking.

Ok, I will keep reading. I was just a bit confused about the info I read on her for crop impaction because I can not feel a hard lump. It is like a big balloon of water in her crop that just keep refilling somehow and the liquid is just spilling out of her mouth every time I move her or pick her up.
