    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    Ah okay, what's one you'd recommend. Also would yogurt work until we order one?

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    His crop drained out naturally right before we were going to treat it earlier this week and he no longer smells bad. He's been pooping fine so everything must have passed through fine. He's been getting the tylosin and the foam in his throat has decreased a little. Still sounds a little snotty.

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    Thank you. We ordered the Tylosin last night. The rest of the stuff we'll get at Walmart for him. I think the crop might have an impaction since the last few days I've checked it it's been the same fullness and feels like there's food or something in it so I'll treat him for that.

    Thank you! Can you buy Tylosin at TSC? If not I can probably order some online. In the event they need the docusate sodium stuff what is the dosage for it?

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    I'm sorry I forgot to write this morning before work. But his breath does still smell bad.

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    I'm honestly not sure if it still smelled or not. My nose has been messed up from pollen allergies the last few days so I can't smell anything right now. I'll have someone else check in the morning. Thank you.

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    Checked his mouth and throat today. Had a little white foam in the corners towards the throat and had a bunch white foam in his throat. He also appears to have dried mucus by his nostrils.

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    His crop was empty this morning. They are however swapping feed so I'm not sure how much they're eating yet. The breeder was feeding them an organic grain feed I think. We just feed our birds normal flock feed so that could impact their eating a little as they get used to it. We're probably...

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    Boy #1 the sneezy one. Trimmed his feathers back, bit fluffier on one side since he wouldn't hold still. His nostrils look a little dirty. Checked his mouth and throat. Didn't see anything and it smelled normal. Boy # 2. Checked his mouth. Didn't see anything but his breath smelled bad.

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    Thank you, sorry for not replying sooner since I've been at work. I'll get some photos of their faces when put the animals in tonight. The one that was sneezing has stopped sneezing and I trimmed back his face feathers a bit since he was having trouble seeing past his fluff.

    Will it be completely blue as an adult?

    Last little update for her: She is now starting to lay beautiful olive colored eggs.

    Snotty Sounding Roosters

    I recently got two silkie roosters and noticed they sound a little snotty. One of them sneezes a lot but other than that is fine (he was acting fine at the breeder's place). The other roo acts perfectly healthy but after catching him (he runs a lot, hates being caught lol) he sounds like he has...

    Is he safe to use for breeding? & quick wheaten color question

    Okay thank you. I was hoping to buy some more silkie hens and roos this spring, hopefully that helps a bit.
