I agree, thank you! I plan on 3 more rounds of the echinacea/spilanthes, but may go beyond that to be sure to do 3 months. I think that would be prudent.

Hello all! Here's an update on my geese. As I stated, I didn't think that the oxine was doing anything, but I may be retracting that. I fogged them 3x a day for 6 days. I noticed the gander was beginning to have a bit of eye irritation directly after, so I stopped at 6 days. I had noticed that...

Thank you so much. I am sorry for the loss of your gander. That's very sad. I shall let you know if I need help with the measuring if I end up using the Tylosin. I really appreciate the wisdom! I'm going to try several rounds of the echinacea and spilanthes and see how it goes. Spilanthes has...

Oh yes, I'm keeping it. I put it in their drinking water. The article suggested 1/8 tsp per gallon. Plus I'll use it quarterly in the chicken coop and goose hut.

Update: The Oxine didn't do jack. I called the vet asking for the tyrosin and got pushback on it. She called the lab with a video of my geese squeaking and they said they wouldn't recommend antibacterials at this point, but to use echinacea. Given that I'm an herbalist, I found this intriguing...

The oxine didn't do anything for my geese. In fact, the squeaking and head shaking is pretty pronounced now. I believe that rules out respiratory issues. The vets here don't know about geese, so I couldn't ask them for advice. I've tried and the gal made a big show of looking at its eyes and...

Jen, have you seen any improvement? I'm on day 5 and am seeing very little improvement with my geese. I stopped wearing a mask as I have some sort of virus myself and figure it may help me. How long are you spraying into your ducks' faces? I put them in their little 4x4 hut and close off their...

-11 here in North Idaho with wind. The chickens and geese are doing well.

Let us know how it works for your ducks and I will as well. 🙏

UPDATE: The Oxine AH came today and as per instructions on the article, I used 3.25 oz in a half gallon of water. I fogged the geeses' faces and their hut. The article said 3x a day, so that's what I'm going to do. The author also states that he puts in 1/8 tsp in the water, which I also did...

Thank you

Good info, thank you!

I've been putting in oregano oil in their feed and a couple drops in their water for about a week now. They aren't thrilled, so I halved the amount.

Many thanks!🙏

Thank you! I'm going to see if I can find the oxine and order it. Good info! Whoa! First state vet supply wants $68 to ship one gallon! Cutler supply wants $50 to ship the gallon. What's up with that??? Off chance, I checked amazon. 25 bucks and free shipping. Not a gallon, but I hope I won't...
