[chickletteSarge]

is that a sumatra chick?

Speaking of MG, I'm worried that my pair of little Bantam Sumatras have it... Symptoms: Sneezing, congestion, less eggs. (They *had* very watery eyes, with white discharge...) They eat like normal, and they don't seem overly sick. All my flock got it too... Figures. It's very cold where I live too, so that might explain the drop in egg production. Is this MG?

I don't belive so. Not the best with different diseases but I do know enough about MG. we had a bird with MG and it was disgustingly sick, then turned to ash

[chickletteSarge]

[championsumatra]

no she is not one of the sick pairs, she was really healthy but she died of old age.
