I've used vasoline before and it works well for helping it not stick.

Buy corid and give 1/4 teaspoon per quart. Give to them until they feather up. That will give you some healthy birds.

That's what I do, but I measure. I don't guess.

I would put Clorox in the drinking water for a day or so. An ounce to a gallon.

To answer your questions: Were they tested for Merek's? The one I had tested was having these symptoms, so I took it to an extension of Auburn University’s poultry lab. I actually watched and saw the coccidia myself under the microscope. It was a very through exam and also sent samples to...

I've got hens and two roosters that have been slowly wilting away. I've lost count on the hens, probably about 10. I got these at Tracot Supply last February. I had one analyzed and it tested for coccidia and coryza. I've treated the flock, thought the coccidia would be dead for sure. But...

Looking more like Marek's disease. I guess it's going to take out my flock one by one. I've got another one now that is lame as hell, and just so suddenly. This one has stool tracks that are green. I lost the one I originally posted about. My first flock was healthy and got eaten, and I...

There is 26 chickens total. Some have been having the runs, but unsure about this one. The breed is RI Red, but the others was buff orp and barred rock

I have a 5 month old chicken which is going down very fast. I let my birds out every evening to roam the yard. They all seemed fine, then I noticed this hen was having problems walking. The longer I watched, the worse she got. Her feet are almost rolled up in a ball at times when she's...

Looks like there are multiple versions of the stuff, what I used is Vetericyn VF Wound and Infection Treatment.

My new favorite product is Vetericyn. I had a juvenile chicken with a BAD eye infection. I tried Neosporin with no success. The eye eventually looked like there was a marble in it. I sprayed this stuff on and within minutes puss began running out. This happened every time I sprayed it...

Great, thanks.

I've got about 25 birds, about 4 months old. I need to separate 4 sick birds. I don't have an outside place to put them. I have a large 4'x4' brooder I put them in, but it is in my shop. It gets rather warm in there during the day. I'm wondering if that is better for them or worse. Any...

I don't know if they get mange or not. But I looked at some chicks at tractor supply today. They looked horrible. They looked to be 3-5 weeks old. Their feathers were thin. Skin was showing underneath. The whole container had a horrible odor. Looked like mange to me. And the smell was...

Lol, that's good stuff. Good job sniping him
