Hi all-
I am new here- we have had chickens for 8 months now and to date they have all been healthy. Our flock also contains 3 buff geese, 6 Khaki Campbells, currently 3 muscovies and 13 guineas.
We have 22 hens and 2 roosters and have not had any losses to disease among the chickens. This morning I found one of our gold lace wyandots recumbant with wry neck, some pasty stool around her vent. She still appeared to be in good feather, normal facial and oral exam, no cyanosis, but felt thin.
We put her down and found this:
Do you think this may be aspergillosis? She seemed to have some mild hemorrhage into her body cavity. Her GI tract seemed normal except for the diarrhea.
All our chickens were acquired at once from Murray Macmurray. The other hens do not seem to be acting sick.
Any ideas? Thanks!
