    Fish Amoxicillin

    Can I get fish amoxicillin on Amazon? If so which one. I see too many formulations and names to feel safe.

    Sour Crop Again & Worms?

    Can I get nystatin without a prescription? We don’t have any chicken vets in my rule area. I see several different kinds for sale online liquid tablets powder. If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate it.

    Sour Crop Again & Worms?

    Thank you. I am treating the whole flock (of 4 lol). But if I had really understood the directions and that’s my thought I would’ve probably chose something different. I do have the liquid goat warmer the safeguard I could try that again I guess. I’m not familiar with the nystatin but I will...

    Egg Size & Ameraucana

    Yes! Way too expensive for me- and it might be a rooster!

    Sour Crop Again & Worms?

    I have a 1 yr old Lavender Ameraucana hen that keeps getting sour crop. I treat it with monistat and it clears up but in a few weeks come back. She is fine otherwise and has laid eggs. I’ve treated them with safeguard goat wormer but not positive my dosage/treatment window was correct. So I...

    Egg Size & Ameraucana

    I don't need show quality. I did that years ago with Belgian D'Anvers. My young girls are over 1 now but their eggs are much smaller than Lyla's. She is lighter in color and slightly larger but does have a larger egg.

    Egg Size & Ameraucana

    My old hen Lyla is Lavender Ameraucana. Beautiful sweet and smart! I wanted to get some more like her but the breeder sold out his stock to someone else who only sold day old chicks - then lost all of them during hurricane Helene. I have been looking for several years. Last Spring I found...

    Crop Squishy

    She did make a poop yesterday. I didn’t see it happen but my husband saw her do the potty squat. I didn’t see any worms .

    Crop Squishy

    This afternoon she is okay but not at her peak. Makes weird head movements like trying to swallow. You know her comb is not pale…which has me rethinking the worms. I’m too timid to tune her. What about the 1/2 tsp of epsom salts in 1/2 cup water given orally 2 times a day?

    Crop Squishy

    @Wyorp Rock if the worms were the problem. how many days would you expect it to take to see results? She feels fairly marvelous. I’m just noticing that she’s not quite herself and she has an enlarged crop that’s rather squishy. She is eating and foraging. I’m on day three of the wormer.

    Crop Squishy

    Thank you I will read up on that. I’m trying the 5 day safeguard treatment now. She seems to feel pretty good - just noticeable crop enlargement.

    Crop Issues AGAIN

    Laying crumbles, free range for an hour or so a day, very small amounts of scratch - water I treated her with the generic monistat 2 x a day for 7 days each time, plus coconut oil. I wormed her with the goat wormer (1 x for one day) but I did NOT repeat it in 10 days??..... She is doing the...

    Crop Squishy

    Friends, here we are again. Pearl has started to have crop issues again. I have treated this 3 times and it clears for a week or so. Then starts up again. I fear there is something major wrong. However, I did worm her once with the goat wormer and forgot to repeat. That might be a last ditch...

    Crop Issues AGAIN

    Friends, My Lavendar Americauna Hen Pearl has squishy crop again! This is the 3rd time in the last few months. I treat and the problem seems to clear up for about a week or two, then starts again. For her sake and mine, I fear I may need to cull her. Which I hate to do for both our sakes and...

    Crop Squishy

    Thanks all, after the squishy went away- she felt better but continued to have a hard crop in the morning. So I’m thinking impacted- so I isolated her at night and gave her some oil and massages for the next 3 days and she seems ok. Will be interested to see if the problem returns.

    I realize the problem is not likely resolved but she feels wonderful this afternoon.

    Crop Squishy

    I’ve only done the wormer once. She felt awful the next day. I was able to isolate her last night- I’m thinking impacted crop more than sour. With only water access this morning her crop felt somewhat enlarged but firm like a tennis ball (not that big). However she feels sooo much...

    Crop Squishy

    Thank you, my goodness wormer for 5 days? I haven’t seen worms in her poop but just trying to cover my bases. Do I repeat that wormer dose for everyone.
