Just a heads up!! My neighbor that lives right down the road has lost about 16 chickens in the past 3 days to what we think is a coyote. They just came and got my husbands game camera and he's going to go get the hog trap tomorrow to see if we can catch something. Bad thing is their coming in the morning/early afternoon.

I've had no experience with it. I believe Julie (Kuntry girl) has. You might want to research dry fowl pox and see if you find anything that compares to what yours has!! Hope you find something out!

I just went and checked them all out, only the one in the picture (she's the worst), & 1 other hen has one scab. Everything I'm reading says separate them if possible, iodine on the scabs, and give them Terramycin (I'm guessing from the feed store, I will be calling them in the morning). It also says to treat the mosquitoes. Any tips on this? I live on 6 acres, 2 sides are bordered by a small bayou, about 1 1/2 acres around my house the grass is cut, the rest is grown up, and pretty much being taken over by the woods. So needless to say there are tons of insects and there is no shortage of mosquitoes. Can I put out spray or granule? I'm worried about when I let them free range. What about sevin dust? Or a product like that?

Once you treat those infected, I'd look into vaccinating for fowlpox. I haven't done that before but plan to do so. I guess I'd better get busy vaccinating! At the exposition, that was the only vaccination that Dr. Barrington recommended for backyard flocks.
