    Snails?

    Sneezy seems to be throwing up snails. She is the same bird that had gapeworm, which safeguard cured, but I noticed in the water some snail like creatures, kind of looks like she ate poop, but these appear to be snail like. Anyone have an idea of what it could be?

    Wheezing chick

    Assuming it is gapeworm, what would be the safest, but most effective method of removal? I have read about Verm-X, Ivomec, and Flubenvet. She is still months away from laying eggs, should I still be concerned about egg production, assuming she makes it that far? I cannot find anything that...

    Wheezing chick

    I just checked sneezy again and she does not have any nasal secretions. I was thinking it was water earlier, but I wanted to confirm.

    Wheezing chick

    Wheezing chick

    That is the one I watched, but my chicken is not silent, she makes a noise. I do intend to treat her with the ivomec though, i figure it will not hurt to try that next. Do you think if she does have worms, that it could have stunted her growth like that?
