    I really appreciate your input. We were able to get in touch with a second farm vet.Who will be advising us this afternoon with a treatment plan. She is alert However the wound Is like a deep pocket.So I fear that is a little harder to manage just with over the counter medications.

    How to manage a respiratory outbreak?

    Hi I'm not orig poster but in a debacle with one of my most adored hens. She likely has MG as I have noticed her sleeping while eating or foraging in daytime. Her eyes are swollen and she has a distinguished "honk noise" when she bawks. What do you recommend for treatment? I was going the...
