    D'Uccle with Coryza Is Still Sick

    Firstly let me thank this forum for the advice that I have been given ! I have posted twice about my banty . First I thought that he had mycoplasma so I was giving him Tylan orally for the prescribed number of days. No improvement at all. So I started reading up on coryza and concluded that he...

    D'uccle with Coryza

    Upon getting advice from the forum I started my d'uccle Bucky on Sulmet (which I had a very hard time obtaining !) Saturday afternoon. He has not shown much improvement. I have him caged so that the only water that he has access to is the Sulmet water. He has not been drinking very much at all...

    Thanks so much for your reply ! I did give the Tylan 50: .25 ml/c orally for ten days with absolutely no change in the symptoms. In your opinion do you think that he has coryza or mycoplasma ?

    Swollen Runny-Eyed D'Uccle Rooster

    Here are photos of my d'uccle rooster Buckley. He is an old guy that I rescued and has become the love of my life. Sorry that the pics are blurry-hard to hold him and take a picture at the same time. As you can see the area around his eyes is very swollen and there is a smelly discharge. His...

    Nasty Eyes

    I have a d'uccle banty rooster who has weepy, runny swollen eyes. The discharge from his eyes smells bad, I would be supremely grateful to anyone who could offer me any insight into this problem. Gayla Yentzer

    Sick Turkey

    We had gotten two turkey poults about 2 months ago. All was fine and they were growing well up until two weeks ago. The male became lethargic and developed diarrhea that was a chrome yellow color. There had been no changes in their diet at all. He died the next day. For a while it seemed that...

    Hello From New York

    Just dropped in to get freshened up on the world of chickens again. Bill & Gayla here from southern New York working on a small homestead. We just hatched out some mix heavy breed chicken eggs we got from an Amish farm. I bought some Silkie eggs off of Ebay and had no luck. So if anybody has any...
