    Rehoming Mareks Carriers

    Unfortunately, my flock have been infected with mareks. The disease has been running its course since August and my chickens have been staying very strong.

    Tylan 50 Injection Location and Dosage Questions

    Tylan 50 Injection Location and Dosage Questions

    @minihorse927 @casportpony She is a 1.5 pound bird, so I should give her .3cc of tylan 3 times a day intramuscularly alternating breasts. Is this right? How many days should I administer the Tylan?

    Yes I have, but there are so many varying opinions on it, especially regarding where to inject the chickens.

    What were the parents? They could be lavender but I think it's more likely that they're splash or a light blue. Beautiful silkies!

    Silkie thread!

    I'm concerned with one of my young silkies. She breathes with her mouth open and closes it with each breath. Her mouth is barely you open when she does this. She has no other signs of illness and none of the other chickens she's with have this problem. It's been going on for quite a while...
