I've been continuing to tube feed. Giving amoxicillan 150mg twice a day. Started corid as well. No change. She's stands and will walk. Poop is bright green and white. I've been giving 40/50 mls of food 4 times a day.
Sterile saline out of an iv fluid bag. Using sterile needles ect.
I could see about the vet. They are all overwhelmed here and taking appointments months out. I can get some corrid and start treatment for coccidia, but the poop doesn't match what I've associated with coccidia in the...
Crop is empty. Just flat. I've been forcing sugar water with electrolytes as many times as I can throughout the day. In addition to the subq fluids. I've tried getting some water with food in her, but she hasn't taken that well. She is still standing throughout the day and gets annoyed with...
My three month old pullet presented with lethargy almost a week ago. I have had her separated and giving Sq fluids. Not eating or drinking on her own. She is vaccinated for mereaks and coccidia. No new birds, change in feed or other symptoms. The rest of the flock is fine. She was dewormed...
A few months ago, I had a young rooster begin limping. I figured he had injured himself some how and just monitored. Well the limp worsened to where the toes were curled under, but he was still walking on it. At this point, I braced it and confined him for a few days. He was in pain and I...
Thank you for your help! It wasn't around the tongue. The chick's owner decided to cut the string. She is eating, drinking, and pooping. So here is hoping she will make it.
I had one too when was younger. Im a big fan of snakes normally. I hate to move this big guy because I know he has been here for years. A friend is going to take him. He will have over 20 acres of woods to play in. No chickens around.
Ive lost three hens, all over 3 months old, to a rat snake. It snatches them off the roost at night, kills them, and leaves their bodies. I finally caught it tonight! It was about to go for my full grown Easter egger hen. It is every inch of 6 feet. I'm fine with snakes and will happily share...
Thank you. My vet will not treat chickens. It doesn't really look like canker. The swollen cheeks are filled with hard puss. There are black scabs that pull out cheese looking stuff. There is more in the holes left behind. Any ideas? Is she just infected?
Tamera has a swollen face (only one side) and what appears to be a sore in the corner of her mouth. It almost looks like bumblefoot in her mouth. She didn't eat or drink much today, but layed an egg. She is a little lethargic. I have her inside away from the others. Ideas on what I should do...
