    Swollen lump on chickens face?

    BMD soluble. Which is what the “chicken doctor” recommended. He is not a vet but is known in the area for helping sick chickens

    Swollen lump on chickens face?

    Yes.. But would something like a canker scab over completely?

    Swollen lump on chickens face?

    She’s on antibiotics, it has shrunk in size and has scabbed over almost completely. So more likely a wound?

    Swollen lump on chickens face?

    This is what it looks like now. I do not see any spots inside the mouth, granted I can’t hold it open very well. But theres almost like a spit substance coating in her mouth and there’s a clear ish fluid leaking from the scab that’s formed. So this will have to be lanced? Is there a medicine...

    Swollen lump on chickens face?

    What is this and how do I fix it? It feels firm but I didn’t poke too hard. Feels relative to an infected pimple or something. I think it showed up yesterday as I usually check them in the mornings and don’t remember seeing this. They are free range

    Lethargic after deworming?

    They did not know that the waterer was switched. I’ve never had an issue prior to switching it, I’ve had the same sized watered for a small flock for awhile lol I showed them the watered and they sat and drank. Perfectly fine the next day

    Large roundworm from egg to worm....

    I know this is old but, I typically have free range birds. They have been quarantined due to a previous sickness for about a month now. They just finished their dewormer(safeguard) acouple days ago. I have another flock of young chickens that also free range. Am I good to let them out...

    Lethargic after deworming?

    Apparently the phrase “chickens are stupid” is alive and well. I had changed their water dish overnight and they didn’t realize it. They dehydrated themselves 🤨

    Lethargic after deworming?

    My chickens were sick with I believe coop pneumonia so they were on a round of antibiotics, I only had about 5 days worth of it. Their symptoms cleared up within that timeframe. But then I noticed one had roundworms, which I asked about on here. Today is the 5th day and suddenly, half the birds...

    Weight question with dewormer, and how long to treat— site won’t load previous forums for me

    We’ve always had free range, their run is soil and their coops haven’t had bedding ever, but it gets scooped out and left to air out with fans a full day prior to the chickens going back inside, when we clean them. We’ve never had a problem with worms in the years we’ve had chickens but I’m...

    Weight question with dewormer, and how long to treat— site won’t load previous forums for me

    I just thought of another question. Does the coop need to be cleaned out daily during treatment? Since the eggs can live awhile in the environment… I’m assuming the odds of the coop having major contamination is high. They are on day 2 of treatment. Which leads me to another (so sorry)...

    Weight question with dewormer, and how long to treat— site won’t load previous forums for me

    Quick clarification, that’s real helpful, thanks! I had a program write me dosage based on weights. This all seem correct? It followed the 0.23ml per pound math . I ended up rounding up though because I’d rather do extra than under dose. Some of them had to be given it by soaking a little...
