    Respiratory illness

    I appreciate all the help you have given me so far. I have a couple more questions. I treated her for 5 days with the wormer which seems to have helped a lot. She finished on Tuesday. Then I’ve been giving her probiotics. She’s no longer gasping, eating normal, almost completely normal. Do I do...

    Respiratory illness

    So I picked up the wormer this afternoon and gave it to her around 5ish. About an hour later it was just a gasp here and there, now she hasn’t really gasped much. Is this just coincidence? Or does it work that fast? It’s unfortunate you can’t get stuff at the farm stores anymore. We breed and...

    Respiratory illness

    I would say the gasping has gotten worse. Less hungry but will eat treats. I don’t feel anything concerning on her body. Everything else seems normal. I only have penicillin on hand. I have cows and pigs. I will try to order some Tylosin. Does it have the dosage information on it? I will...

    Respiratory illness

    So I tried putting her back. She was fine all day when I checked on her until I went to shut everything up and she was gasping for air again. Brought her back to the house. This was Monday.

    Respiratory illness

    No new birds. This is the first time I’ve had a bird do this. So I’m not sure how to treat it or diagnosis it. I’ve read through some of respiratory stuff and they have a lot of the same symptoms but none of them really seemed to jump out that this is it. I was kinda leaning towards something...

    Respiratory illness

    I had chicken a few days ago gasping for air, wheezing, and blue comb. I brought her to the house. I checked her air way, I cleaned the coop, did all the things to check her over and her environment. None of my other chickens are having any issues. Since then her comb has returned to normal, her...

    Treating a ducks pain

    Unfortunately she passed. I’m not sure what we are dealing with at the moment. We are working on figuring that out so we can take proper actions for that. Thank you for trying to help!

    Treating a ducks pain

    What would be the best thing to give a duck for pain? She was attacked last night and I lost 2 and she has some superficial but 1 really bad wound. I’m treating the wounds with a spray but would like to help her pain. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!
