I have three chocolate cuckoo Orpington hens that I was hoping to get chicks from but my chocolate cuckoo rooster didn’t work out, I do have a chocolate Orpington rooster that I could put with them though.
If I put him in with them what color would the chicks be?
TIA
I know this is an old thread but I have a hen that has the same symptoms and I was just wondering what happened with your hen and if you ever figured out what was wrong.
I’m still hearing a sneeze or two every now and then but there isn’t any more birds with severe symptoms so the vet said to not treat unless I see severe symptoms.
I did switch my bedding to shavings a couple days ago and the humidity came down 30% after about an hour and I haven’t heard any...
thankfully There still isn’t anymore sick birds!
I talked to the vet again and she said the only thing she found on the necropsy was one of the lungs had a little bit of pneumonia in it but other than that she said the bird looked healthy.
Is there any chance that it could be Brooder Pneumonia...
I haven’t heard back from the vet yet but she sent me home with some Tylan to add to their water.
Can my ducks,geese,quails all have the tylan too?
Would the dosing be any different than for the chickens?
How can I make sure everyone gets some?
they only gave me enough for 2L of medicated water...
All of the birds I have are for breeding purposes, every summer I sell chicks as well as hatching eggs and that’s how I pay to feed them through the winter.
If my birds recover then I will not be selling any chicks or breeding stock
But does anyone know if I could continue to sell hatching eggs ?
I think there’s a rotting smell.
I have 93 birds
I’m located in Alberta Canada
I’m hoping to send one or two birds in for testing once the vet opens on Monday
I’m having respiratory issues in my flock.
This week I have lost 3 that had respiratory symptoms and then this morning one of my roosters dropped dead, he didn’t have any respiratory symptoms but he did get beat up pretty bad by one of the other roosters about 2 weeks ago.
The birds in question...
