    Anyone ever use Clavamox antibiotics for chickens?

    I wish I knew what happened to Frankie…

    Rooster Sick?????

    Okay, thank you so much. I appreciate it, I don’t believe he is molting at this time, his head/neck feather issue I believe is from the fighting but I don’t know for sure…

    Rooster Sick?????

    Hello, we have a few roosters in our flock (accidentally) but we love them so we have separate enclosures. One single rooster fights gladiator style with everyone else so he lives in this cottage on property we turned into his coop. We let him hang out outside when we are home and he just walks...

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who helped here. Especially azygous and everyone who had such helpful suggestions and for being patient with me. This was a first and I pray a last. It is with a heavy heart I let my helpful friends here know we lost our sweet Jane tonight...

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Thank you for that hope…I’ll take it until the very last moment. How much sugar water is appropriate? When I opened her mouth she had stickiness from this morning when I gave her some and thought she took it all…I cleaned her mouth with water by giving her a dropper of it before tubing the sugar...

    I just gave her a little sugar water mixed with vitamin supplement. Not very much at all and she didn’t even open her eyes for it. We brought her outside to feel the sun… how long could this go on for worst case scenario if she doesn’t start improving?

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Okay I’m going to work on this now. She hasn’t been willing to have anything in her own, I had to gently force her beak open to even get a tiny dropper of it down.

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Okay, I just got home to her. She is still with us. She woke up a little bit honestly her crop seems so far down her body. I’ll attach photos of her current state. Please advise on what to do first. I don’t know if we have time to wait until tomorrow to assess honestly. She’s barely alive at all...

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Thank you, I very much appreciate you, your openness, and your attitude! You’re why I’ve made it through this day. I just wanted to explain myself as well. I’m going to show you the feeding tube they gave me.

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Ignoring your question about being an adult - I’m trying my best here to use a message board I’m unfamiliar with to help my hen with an issue I’ve never ever had to deal with, I’m going by what people are telling me, while simultaneously being at work. That aside because what matters is...

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Okay thank you. If I can find the correct size for feeding what should I be giving her? Or just fluids? And how much?

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Thank you so much. I guess my next question is what I should be putting in the syringe and how much should I give her? Once I do this should I be doing the crop massage I’m reading about? I’m just not sure if the order of things and what’s best.

    Help! I think my hen ate pebbles???

    Could you possibly provide the method you were going to walk me through with the feeding tube? I want to make sure I have the information should that be needed since the thread is dying off a little…
