    Safeguard Aquasol Dewormer for Capillaria Worms?

    Awesome, I have some Safeguard paste here. One last question - you can treat chickens with Safeguard and Corid at the same time, or is that not recommended?

    Safeguard Aquasol Dewormer for Capillaria Worms?

    I sent off a fecal sample which came back positive for coccidiosis and Capillaria worms. Will start the ladies on Corid tomorrow (2 teaspoons per gallon) but my question is has anyone treated capillaria with Safeguard Aquasol dewormer? From what I found, Flubendazole is best for these type of...

    Lash Egg?

    Did you treat the entire flock with antibiotics? I've been cleaning their coop on a weekly basis, with fresh pine shavings.

    Lash Egg?

    Tonight, I found something that might be a lash egg but not sure. It's not egg shaped, when I cut into it, it looks like layers of skin. Nothing seems out of place with the gang- eating, drinking, scratching etc. I have an Australorp/Orphington mix who is 6yrs old (she might be laying an...

    Canker / Not Seeing Immediate Results

    Last Thursday, I started treating E with Metronidazole 250mg, with 1.5 tsp copper sulfate solution ( Acidified copper sulfate crystals mixed with Apple cider vinegar and water) in 2 quarts of water in the water feeder, starting this past Sunday (fresh water along with solution every day). I've...

    Acidified Copper Sulfate-Okay for Entire Flock?

    Earlier this week, I discovered one of my girls, E, has canker. No one else seems to have it. E is on day two of Metronidazole 250 mgs. I ordered Acidified Copper Sulfate which should arrive early next week. From what I've read, 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water, should be the only source of...

    Fishy Breath/Sour Crop?

    It seemed like she was doing better. Went out of town this weekend, I came back and noticed she is sometimes huddling and closing her eyes. Holding her, I noticed she drooled a bit, then I looked inside her mouth and I think it's canker. Apologies for the terrible photo. Anyway, I cleaned out...

    Fishy Breath/Sour Crop?

    Last two mornings, she hasn't emptied her crop but it isn't huge. I can feel grains in her crop. I've been giving her coconut oil and massages in the morning and before bedtime to get the crop going. I did see a pile of poop yesterday am where she roosts. Hard to tell this morning, a bunch of...

    Fishy Breath/Sour Crop?

    While treating her for sour crop, can she still eat feed? I haven't separated her.

    Fishy Breath/Sour Crop?

    Thank you Azygous. The flock's water has Corid as a preventative - would that interfere with miconazole?

    Fishy Breath/Sour Crop?

    Azure Egger, about 4 years old, going through molt. I've noticed the last two days she will occasionally stand huffed up, sometimes on one leg. I checked her out yesterday and noticed she had fishy smelling breath. Didn't see any cankers. Thinking it might be sour crop, I checked her crop this...

    Treating For Vent Gleet/Purple Splotch/Something Else?

    Received results from the fecal sample I sent earlier this week from the state poultry lab, heavy infestation of capillaria. In the past, I've used Safeguard, I'll switch to panacur for treatment. Should I use amoxicillin the same time I treat for Capillaria for her? Or hold off?

    Treating For Vent Gleet/Purple Splotch/Something Else?

    Thanks everyone. I'll need to look into water belly. The bloatness has decreased slightly. As far as an antibotic, what do you suggest? I gave her some oregano oil, which I have on hand.

    Treating For Vent Gleet/Purple Splotch/Something Else?

    Last Thursday, my Azure Egger (age 4) exhibit symptoms that I thought were along the lines of Vent Gleet -yellowish/white discharge, hunched over, not eating or drinking. Comb is bright red. No poop, only green, yellow droppings (I remove poop piles daily from the coop). Haven't seen any...
