    Coccidiosis? Worms? Something else?

    I took one of my hens to the vet last year. They couldn't pin point what was wrong but thought antibiotics might help. It did help and cost over $300! That didn't even include any tests. Just exam and antibiotics.

    Coccidiosis? Worms? Something else?

    Why not give fluids until she warms up? I stopped corid treatment because she didn't make any improvements after 3 days. I've given her electrolyte and vitamin and now ACV. She is still hardly eating. She is just bones. He stomach was making a gurgling sound when digesting the water. I'm going...

Last year I wasn't concerned about her being egg bound because she was acting and looked fine. I have 3 birds total (they are my first flock). None...

    Here are a few pictures. She won't stand long enough to get a picture of her standing. She is too week. The scars on her comb are from her sister who pecked at her head. She probably won't eat scrambled eggs. I just tried giving her warmed oats (which she loves, and she won't eat it). Is a...

    Coccidiosis? Worms? Something else?

    I'm having difficulty diagnosing my hen. She has very smelly yellow/green diarrhea, lethargic, hardly eats/drinks, looks depresed, lost a lot of weight, and is acting cold (even when it's not). Been going on for a little over a week. At first I was thinking Coccidiosis, but her diarrhea doesn't...
