In July I treated my turkeys with FishZole and then dewormed my entire flock (chickens and two turkeys) with Safeguard. As of yesterday my Tom is feeling unwell. Started out with runny poo and this a.m. under his roost is a LOT of mucusy yellow "stuff". Almost looks like an egg burst open.
I am sure I can treat him again with cayanne, fishzole and everything else I pulled out the last time but could we really really have it again!!
If it matters we processed the other tom yesterday and I had a good look at the intestines which all looked "normal" to me. The liver looked great and so did the gizzard. He too, before his demise, looked off.
The extra crappy thing is yesterday was the date I had to bring home my 6 new layers (20 weeks). The only place for them is in the coop with an area sectioned off with wire and boards. Guess I"ll be deworming those ready-to-lay hens in about 10 days?
As soon as the Tom is well he is going to a new forever home where he won't be running with chickens.
