1) RIR rooster. Maybe be 24-30 weeks ago. Inherited him recently. He’s a big boy. Maybe 7 or 8 pounds.
2) Stopped crowing last week. I treated the whole flock for an unidentified illness over a month ago. One hen was sick at the time. Isolated her. Treated whole flock, at vet suggestion, with Corid, Safeguard, Ivermectin, electrolytes. B vitamins and vitamins after. Hen recovered. Rooster also had poopy butt at the time me. He was quiet over weekend and I thought it was because he was cold. We had bad weather…15 degrees at night in SC.
3) Poopy but a month ago. Got better with treatment. Got quiet one week ago. To say found him in coop facing the wall. Caught him to bring him up to isolation and he caught me then passed out in my arms. He’s in isolation with labored breathing.
4) No one else with symptoms. I have 8 hens.
5) I see one mass on his left foot. Comb is now very dark.
6) What happened? I don’t know. We had some cold weather.
8) Poop looks a little runny, a little dark but was normal three days ago. Butt is a little poopy. I’m wondering if I underdosed him last month because of his heavier weight and whatever he had a month ago has come back.
9) Just caught him! Forced a little electrolyte water, dosed him syringe w two drops of Corid. I think that is what worked last time.
10 ) What is your intent as far as treatment? I had a vet who gave advice over the phone. Willing to take him in tomorrow, but idk if she even sees chickens. I may be doing this myself.
11) pic of butt and foot attached.
12) He is free range during day, in solid coop at night that we have winterized.
The feel terrible that I didn’t see his foot before this!!! He’s kind of a wild boy. Hard to get close to.
