so the dosage is 1 tsp for an adult bird. they are still small and he is a bantam we have 3 with him that are not bantams so i'll give them a little more. but since they are still young what is the dosage for them?
we have six chicks all of them are five months old.They live in a netted coop in the garage. Yesterday i found a big hole in the netting. I'm pretty suree it was a rat. there have been similar holes in the netting from mice, I keep on sewing it back up but they open it back up again. Anyway this...
we are currently dealing with sour crop right now. two of our chicks died before we realized what it was, glad you caught it before it was too late. Hope your hen has a full recovery:fl

Welvin passed away last night:hit. Yes he was throwing up and his crop was full and squishy. we just cleaned their coop and i mean we CLEANED it. We got all the poop out and bleached it and we dumped their food and water and cleaned the containers too. The chicks are outside in a 5X5 coop so...
