    Hi, I used the treatment protocol for one chicken and they seem to be on the path of recovery. I'm treating another chicken for sour crop as well and I was wondering if there was an egg withdrawal period for miconazole, Thanks.

    Yeah it's probably some form of reproductive issue, since vet care isn't an option, I'll just try my best to keep her well as long as possible, thanks for the help.

    8 month old chicken limping with tail down.

    I've checked for scaly leg mites/bumblefoot, and there doesn't seem to be an issue. I thought she could be egg-bound but she has already laid an egg for today. She still ate and drank like normal today. Could it be a B-12/calcium deficiency?
