Well, unfortunately all my hens and my rooster are sick with fowl pox. At first I thought they all had bumble foot because of the foot and legs sores then I started to notice the sores on their combs and waddles as well. So far they all look as though they have the Dry form except for 1. She's always been my sickly runt and she seems to have the wet form so she is unfortunately getting culled today.
At this point I'll take any advice or suggestions to get them well, keep them comfortable and hopefully keep them alive. Heres a few questions I have... Can I vaccinate them for fowl pox during an outbreak? Can I eat their eggs if they are sick? How on earth do you keep mosquitoes at bay when they have 10,000 sq ft of wooded free range space?
Thanks to any and all that reply!
