    Sickly Chickens

    We are going to be treating them tonight with Tylan. The odor has disappeared already and 2 out of 4 hens have went back to normal. The 2 with swollen eyes have increased in appetite and gaining weight. The nasal drainage is gone also. Hopefully once they can open their eyes they will be back to...

    I checked their mouth for puss and there isn't any that I could see but they put up a good fight before I could look.

    Sickly Chickens

    They were all quarantined but now that 2 have gotten better and we're moving around again we had to put them back with the rest. The area we had them in wasnt bug enough for them to move around that much. We are making a new pen for them this weekend so they can stay separated. I couldn't...

    They did have worms which is why we treated. We found them when one pooped in their water. This hen has had her eyes closed the longest which has been about 5 days and she's the thinnest. This hen started acting this way a couple days ago. The picture of her eye on the left is due to me...

    No, put right in their mouth with a syringe. I think you could have put it in the water but they weren't drinking the water either and kept knocking it over. It said for faster result to put it directly in their mouth.

    Yes, but other than weighting them, is there anything else I should be doing? I have done dewormer, electrolytes, vitamins, VetRx, Nutri-drench, oatmeal, and fresh herbs, along with a heat lamp. And tonight I'm going to attempt giving them scrambled eggs for protein.

    I didn't think so but wanted to ask. Other than weighing them is there anything else I can do to help them? I syringe feed them as much as I can before the absolutely refuse. I did get one to finally eat oatmeal out of a bowl but she still can't open her eyes.

    They also haven't laid any eggs since I got them. Should there any concern? I know with them being sick could slow down the process.

    I need help!! I recently purchased 4 hens. After a day their combs became pale, one became very lethargic. Now they all have pale combs, lethargic, under weight from not eating, swollen and watery eyes, and had worms. I treated for worms, gave them electrolytes, vitamins, VetRx, Nutri-drench...
