    PLEASE READ! THIS MAY HAPPEN TO YOUR CHICKENS SOMEDAY!

    I am making a guess...and this is only a guess but I will say it is most-likely a combination of ILT and a parasite. ILT rears it's ugly head whenever it feels like it. For some reason it kills certain breeds off and leaves other breeds as carriers. See, it really isn't the ILT that ends up...

    Question about unhatched chicks and CRD

    Question about unhatched chicks and CRD

    Shelley, it CAN be made safe to take the eggs and finish them in the bator. IF and only IF you have Oxine available to you, you will need to place 1/8 teaspoon Oxine into a pint of water. Then use the water to fill the wells of your incubator. after the incubator heats back up to 99.5 than...

    Please Help! Diareah

    I would say "worry." The symptoms of the intestinal tract being shed or stripped is that dot in the middle of the poo. This is a stage in the deterioration of the intestinal tract and the color is an orangish red dot. It is preceded by the stage of runny poo with white and water. After the...

    Is this poo normal?

    If it has a jellied consistency you could be facing a nasty parasite. I would suggest having it tested to see what type and treat accordingly before it gets too out of hand.

    What are these white worms? Ewww...(Pic included)

    Yes you are all correct. I have seen these before and they are, indeed, tapeworm. Unfortunately there are very few treatments out there approved to treat them. There are also many misconceptions about Diatomaceous Earth. It only treats fleas, lice, and roundworm. It does not penetrate the...

    Quick question re ILT vaccine

    And please allow me to add my apology. I love my birds. It pains me to see how people can be so arrogant as to ignore the needs of another just to shoot a helpful person down. I had to learn the things I KNOW the HARD way. I am here to save others from that path. Could I please just be...

    Quick question re ILT vaccine

    The thing that really bothers me about these forums is that some people think they are know-it-alls and when someone has very VERY good advice to give there is ALWAYS someone who thinks they are "better," there to shoot it down. THIS is not the purpose of these posts. It is a matter of...

    breathing funny...sounds like there clogged up really raspy???

    The fastest and safest help you can give her is to isolate her from the rest of the flock and mix a solution of Oxine and water-about 1/8 teaspoon per gallon. Fill a vaporizer with this solution and place it very closeby her quarters. This should alleviate the respiratory distress. It will...

    THESE ARE THE SYMPTOMS!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY HEN??? HELP PLEASE!!!

    Isn't that typical of Blackhead? If so, the supplement Acidified Copper Sulfate, which is safe, inexpensive and easy to use should clear it up in 3-5 days. Not sure but It sure sounds like Blackhead. Pretty, pretty birds, JJ.

    Something hanging out of hens vent PICS

    It definitely would not hurt to get her on some dry powder probiotics right away. I wouldn't give her antibiotics. She needs to fight off any infections that may develop on her own until she lays a few eggs and she needs the calcium and magnesium very badly. There is an excellent Probiotic...

    HELP MY CHICKENS ARE GETTING SKINNY

    If I may, I agree also...It is not costly to have a poo float done. IF your birds have a parasite such as the cappilaria worm you may be facing something that Neither Piperazine nor Wazine (same basic thing) can conquer. Some parasites require something stronger such as fenbendazole. Also, it...

    Help! Pasty Butt

    Here is a very helpful tip. Take some vaseline and sparingly apply it by massaging around the vent area. This will keep the poo from drying to their feathers and allow you to remove it if it sticks to their butts for a while yet and I don't think you are out of the woods yet with the pasty...

    whats wrong with her? graphic pics

    The wound definitely looks abcessed. You may want to try giving them all a Probiotic powder with their feed. This could add some immune support and help them with processing their food. Just in case there may be a mite involved the food grade Diatomaceous Earth should take care of anything...
