    Help! Sick Isbar hen

    Good to know about copper sulfate! I've been dealing with mycoplasma (I believe) as well. It started off in a few chicks and has spread quickly. I've been giving them sulmet and the chicks healed quickly. I now have a hen that can't seem to get rid of whatever it is. The symptoms throughout all...

    Sick chicks! Help!

    I have one large coop with separate runs. The momma and chicks are in their own run. None of my other chickens are sick. I get all of my chickens from a lady that is local. I've had nothing but great success with all of my chickens from her. I don't know if they just have a type of respiratory...

    They all seem start off with their eyes looking like it's gotten wet and eventually begins to swell shut.

    Sick chicks! Help!

    I've got some chicks that were hatched out by a broody hen about 3-4 weeks ago. I noticed one that had one eye shut. Still eating, still drinking, acted fine. A couple of days later I noticed that another one had one eye shut, and was having trouble breathing. Then the original one that had the...

    Help!! Bumble foot!

    I took one of my hens to the vet since it was my first time having a chicken with bumble foot. He gave her an antibiotic and cleaned her foot out. I did everything I was told to do with her for healing process; soaking in Epsom salt daily and wrapping her foot. It was beginning to look better...

    Oxine AH to sterilize/clean between flocks?

    I've got a question, on the the oxine label it says something about mixing crystals. Is this necessary or does it work just as well with oxine itself?

    Treating upper respiratory infections

    Roo Ridge Farm - can they be give Tylan twice a day orally? I gave mine 1 ml orally, I just wasn't sure if she can have it twice a day.

    Help! Sick Isbar hen

    Here is a picture of the mucus coming out of her beak while she roosts this evening. It's kind of hard to see.

    Help! Sick Isbar hen

    From the symptoms it doesn't sound like she has coccidiosis. My husband said that she was perky throughout the day but once I got home she kind of went downhill again from there. He did say that she drank and ate a little bit. I am hoping to be able to work from home tomorrow so I can keep an...

    Help! Sick Isbar hen

    Oh goodness. Thank you so much. She finally opened her eyes for a bit when I got home from work and then about 30 minutes later she was back to feeling bad. I am keeping her separate from my other chickens in hopes that they don't get it. Her poop this evening was a yellowish tint and not eating...
