    Black Locust Seed Pods

    Got it--thanks. Last question: do you have tips on treating just one chicken with the sulfa med (which is a powder)? Or should I maybe treat the whole flock with Corid and Sulfa meds mixed together in their water after the freezing weather (and just give Willow Corid directly in the meantime)?

    Black Locust Seed Pods

    Hi, just an update and a question: I unfortunately wasn't able to get Willow started on the meds until today--I didn't have on hand what I thought I did and had to order it. She just had her first dose of Valbazen, which I'll re-dose in another 10 days. Here's my question: the trimethoprin...

    Black Locust Seed Pods

    Since all the treatments are safe and dont interact negatively, I suppose I'll give it a go from every angle (valbazen, corid direct dose, sulfa med). My vet is out of town for the next week, so she's in my hands now, for better or worse. I'll post updates to close the loop. I just went out to...

    Black Locust Seed Pods

    I'll give her the first does of valbazen tomorrow, since I understand it's best on an empty stomach. The sulfa med hasn't shipped yet, but I can start her on fish mox or baytril. Will the trimethoprim sulfa take care of cocciodiosis? Treating the water will be difficult due to freezing temps...

    Black Locust Seed Pods

    @azygous I hate to bother you, but you've made the mistake of being very helpful! I've been monitoring Willow, my RIR, and her intestinal shed continues. There's always some in her overnight poops (usually present in one of multiple) and then some expelled in her daytime poops (again, not in all...

    Black Locust Seed Pods

    Thank you so much! Fingers crossed it will pass as they take a break from grazing. But I'll order this to have on hand just in case. I keep looking out at my RIR and she is acting like a normal chicken. I won't let them out until I've been able to rake up the pods. Luckily, everyone's taking...

    Black Locust Seed Pods

    My RIR, who eats the most (she's obsessed with them), has been having runny poop with some shed intestinal lining for the last few days. She's eating, drinking, and energetic and there is not any bleeding in her poop, yet. I've not let them out today, so the last she had some was yesterday...

    Black Locust Seed Pods

    My chickens have been obsessed with eating seeds from these pods all over my yard. After weeks, I finally figured out the source yesterday evening: black locust trees which are toxic to animals. I can't free range them without them encountering and wanting to eat the seeds, and while everyone...
