Just wanted to update you all. She has now been on Amoxicillin 250mg PO QD for 3 days. Her overall appearance has improved (disregard the disheveled look, she had just gotten a bath) and her appetite is HUGE. Feeding her Layena, cottage cheese, plain yogurt, some seeds, berries, and fresh...
Ok, so I’m thinking I’ll treat her with Amoxicillin and see how quickly I can get my hands on some Corid in case there is some coccidiosis going on too. At least it’s easy for me to get the amoxicillin no matter the day or time. Lol.
As far as the “toxin”. Yes, it’s entirely possible that she...
Yes! Just like those tiny spheres. Not many though.
So does this mean perhaps some sort of intestinal issue? Do I need to start her on some sort of medication? If so what?
So I am a medical PA and I treat patients all day every day in emergency medicine, however I need some help with my most recent patient. I usually write in SBAR format so here goes. I'll try to keep it simple.
Situation: I have a "sick" pullet/hen. About 5 months old. Auracans Mix. She started...
Hey everyone. I have a web hosting company, TemoHosting.com, and I host mainly friends & family sites, along with a few non-profits. I personally pay a significant amount in data storage & transfer, and in an effort to lower costs I was wondering if anyone would be interested in perhaps having...
I just recently saw this one on EggCartons.com. http://www.eggcartons.com/product-exec/product_id/1076/nm/Poultry_Butler_Automatic_Poultry_Door_PBD_1
It is a new product they listed. It appears to be a significantly cheaper option and has good reviews. I really want one of these and am hoping...
I too have a Blue Plymouth Rock that I got at 5 months old from Halo (back in July)... who's screen name on here is now ~SunSetsWest~ I believe by the way. She was a great person to deal with, and I got some excellent, beautiful birds from her. I got two Ameraucanas from her too.
EDIT...
That does appear to be it. Thanks so much for the info. It looks to be a very interesting plant/fruit. I've grown up with these all my life here in St. Pete, FL (growing invasively on everything in my back yard) and never had any idea that people actually eat certain varieties of these & that...
My chickens love most any grass clippings, weeds, etc that they can get their beaks on. And I know that often times, they don't know what is and isn't good for them. There is this vine like weed that grows on everything here(fences, other plants, trees, chicken wire, ground, etc) that is very...
I've got one too and absolutely love it. It is a Debit Card but it can also be run as a MasterCard (although it is not an actual credit card). I do a lot of eBay'ing so it's really nice to have the money instantly like you said, and not have to wait till it gets transferred to my bank account or...
I live in St. Pete, FL and we don't have foxes here. But I have spent MANY MANY days in Brooksville for camp, weather for a weekend, a summer week, or a full summer as a counselor and there are certainly foxes. Sounds just like what you described.
My family and I (in various locations) own a total of 4 Roombas and one Scooba. I absolutely love them. The Roomba is absolutely essential if you have as many pets as we do. It's like someone swept the floor for me everyday magically. We have mainly tile everywhere, and with 5 dogs and 2 cats...

Thank you for this valuable information. I think I am going to buy a bag of Start & Grow AND a bag of Flock Raiser this trip to the feed store, and mix it half & half. This way I can have a slow transition from crumble to pellets, I can avoid the extra calcium on the young'ins going...

I've only had chickens now for a little less than 3 months... and I've gone from 6 chicks I bought as day olds, to now having a total of 12 gathered from random people, all of various ages. At this rate, I can't even imagine how many I'll end up with a year from now. But I can tell you...
