    Thank you!! Question? I have a black Moran hen who has REALLY watery poop at night, and her crop is soft at night, but by the morning it is 90% empty. She’s also a little thin but eating and drinking. Any idea what she may have?

    *Trimethoprim sulfa 240mg/5ml Every 12 hours *Tramadol 50mg every 12 hours *Carprofen 25mg every 24 hours After cleaning it out I learned part of the bumble is scar tissue. I’m still soaking the foot in Tricide-Neo. Anymore ideas? Do you like the meds the vet gave me?

    I’m going today at 5:00pm pacific time. Getting it done then. Should I continue soaking it in that Fish anabiotic after she digs it out?
