Oh wow! That definitely makes sense! Yep I have big container from costco that's 600mg per tab. Thank you!

Further eval uncovered an egg, with no shell, nearby. It's definitely a soft shell membrane, i was able to gently remove the hanging piece. Gave her some oral calcium and dewormed just in case she has a worm load (she is pretty light). She eats a complete layer feed. We've isolated her near...

Gosh the drama never seems to end in chicken keeping life 😅. I have a hen who's been hanging out in the nesting boxes, looking rough with feathers. Today I see this hanging from her vent. Looks like a huge tapeworm to me! Please let me know your thoughts. We dewormed the flock in the winter.

Update- took her to the chicken vet and they think she was bit by a snake. She's actually bearing a little weight now, so already improving! Thanks for the help as always

I believe it's just dirt. I'm going to do a soak later and clean up some more.. of course it happened during my work day :(

Hi all, Went to check on the chickens earlier and noticed my sapphire gem hopping on one foot and some bleeding. Didn't see anything on her trunk. Her right foot has a tiny laceration on the top, her foot joint and pad look very swollen. For now, i have cleaned and gently wrapped her foot...

I have not seen any dribbles, and she seems to be acting back to normal this morning. Should I continue to give her calcium for a couple days? I added more oyster shell containers for increased accessibility

Hi all. I had a young layer (about 9 month old) looking unwell today. Brought her in and hadn't seen her lay yet. Gave her one calcium tablet, and about 30 min later she layed a soft shell egg. She perked up and was eating, but then I saw extra soft shell in the crate. Is there anything...

Yes, it was texas a&m.. they did histopathology along with it, and nothing stood out to them 🤔 I'm glad it wasn't MG either.. so that should mean nobody in the flock has it too?

Well, necropsy came back, unexplained death. Lungs looked good, negative for MG. Such a weird one! Thanks for all the help.

That's what I figured she had. She died last night. I'm sending her for necropsy today.. I just don't know why she started improving and then took a sudden turn for the worse :( Thank you for all the help!

Update... she finished course of enrofloxacin on Friday and started getting worse.. sneezing and coughing and not eating or drinking. It seems like she developed chicken equivalent of pneumonia. She had pretty severe respiratory distress. Saturday am, started with denagard 1ml twice daily via...

Thank you! We have an area we can put her closer to the others, but still protected until her eye is healed up

Better news today! She's using her eye.. she's been eating some, and she pooped solid today! I've had her within eyesight of the flock, but she still has the watery eye and I wasn't sure how long I should keep her separated. She has one more day of enro treatment. When do you think it's ok to...

We've had a couple waves of it in the flock, but I don't see any on the others currently. If it's MG, is she OK to be around the others in the crate?

I tried the tuna, but she wasn't interested. I put her in a small covered, contained area and she really perked up being outside for 2 hours (away from the flock but still in audible range) . She pecked a little at the feed, which I saw as a good sign. Hopefully tomorrow is even better.

She's opening her eye a little more today. Still not interested in eating or drinking on her own... but I feel like she's slowly improving. Thank you for the info! I'll keep y'all posted

Maybe i just need to give it a little longer... her breathing is a little better, but she's still not eating or drinking on her own. Still getting tube feeds. She seems appreciative afterwards

Thank you! And thank you Amazon 😅😅. Should I switch her to that instead of enro?

Thank you. I have her on enrofloxacin currently. I show that it's effective. But I'll look into some denaguard for the future, thank you! What is the formulary that you use? I see there is powder and liquid form
