    2nd sick chicken...... Anybody have an idea....quickly?

    I would trust the bird to drink. If the poo is watery then maybe this just means that it is flushing with water. Is the poo discolored? this can help you determine what you've got. If you have many birds then you should maintain quarantine until you determine what you have got. Find out where...

    ******UPDATE POST 18******My chickens are cloudy eyed, snotty nosed

    I am dealing with something similar to what you have going on. I dearly hope they wont be carriers of something bad but if so i will diligently build a coop in a far corner and keep them safely away from my flock. Right now i am treating my birds (3 mille fleure bearded belgian, 4 porcelain...

    Mille Fleur age?

    Judging on the fact that your birds seem to be fully feathered and that there are no long prominent tailfeathers i would say 1 year. Eggs? if eggs then maybe up to 2 but still quite young.

    Losing Birds Regularly to sickness. My heart is breaking over and over

    The Bird is looking much more lively. Barely drank some water w/ antibios and he is perked up over the last hour. Respitory disease maybe. Treating the other Mille Flieures and Porcelains that shared the pen. Should i leave the bird inside over night? Seems like the bird does better in the sun.

I did notice a little sneeze here and there from a few of the birds but it didnt seem like a serious problem. Other...
