Wet and Dry Fowl Pox - Graphic Pictures of Pus and Scabs

This is #2

This one is not eating as much and looks sad, in corners.

I have a few more that I know are sick but these two are the ones with the signs.
Should I vaccinate them all anyways? They are about 6 to 8 weeks old.
I also ordered some more chicks, they get here in late January. Should I order two vaccinations or wait till they get here to vaccinate all.

don't vaccinate sick ones. good luck with the young ones. make sure they eat and give them vitamins.

My girl had the pox and I tubed her EXACT formula for pet birds.
Very high nutrition, Poultry Drench on the tongue, Pedialyte and Baytril.
She got better.

This is sometimes the only way to save them.

I agree. we don't have those stuff in greece and although 1 of the young birds ate she died as well as the other 2. they all lost weight and the smallest ones couldn't cope with that.

South you guys think I should tube feed even if they are eating?

if they eat enough I wouldn't. give them quality feed and vitamins. that is my opinion.

@casportpony knows better.

The thing is that I have about 20 chick's with pox. No sense in separating, it's also a bad time with new year. I don't know where I can get the tubes.

If by any chance I get the tubes on time to save them can I use the same tube or do I have to buy 20 tubes?
