    Sick Bantam rooster

    Our little chicken died yesterday. He had stopped eating and drinking again. We were so concerned that we found another vet that would see chickens. She asked us to leave him for a couple of hours. They were going to put a tube down his throat to give him food and fluids and do an x-ray to...

    Thank you for your comments. I will be looking for a warm water vaporizer today. I have one but it isn't for warm water. In the meantime, we've been putting oil on his wattles to help the peeling. We have also been putting probiotic, vitamin and mineral supplement in his water. We have...

    Our chicken's condition has improved. He's eating and drinking more. He is still very weak and unsteady but seems to be getting better. We gave him another dose of ivermectin at seven days since the last dose because we still think he may have had air sac mites. His breathing seems to have...

    I believe that dose is more than what we gave him but he is acting much better this evening. He is eating! Not a lot but we are glad he is eating on his own. He is also still drinking. We are very encouraged that he may make it after all.

    He has all kinds of food in his cage, just trying to get him to eat anything to keep him alive. All his favs, meal worms, chick starter with water, cracked corn and he likes a pear. That seems to the be the only thing he eats consistently. He will only take a couple of bites and stops eating...

    Thank you for the replies! We went to Tractor Supply and found a dog dewormer (WormXPlus) with praziquantel (30mg) & pyrantel pamoate (30mg). After posting this, my husband didn't want to wait so we gave 3.5mg of this. It says to give one tablet for a 6 to 12 lb dog. We cut the tablet into...

    Hello all, I just joined this blog so I guess this will be my introduction as well as my first question. We have have had many "big" chickens through the years and we also have some Wheaten Old English Game Bantams. They have all been pretty good over the years with no big issues, then, 2 1/2...
