4 year old easter egger. Intestinal shed 3 days in a row. Acting ok. Cannot get fecal for less than 100.00. Everyone else's fecal is normal. I want to try amoxcillin first, then dewormer after if needed. Is dosage 250mg once a day for 10 days? I have tablets. @Wyorp Rock @Eggcessive please advise.
I have a blue australorp hen, Josie. she is 3 years, 9 months old and was laying non stop since she was 6 months old. in september she laid nothing but thin shelled or shell less eggs, so i decided to put her on the hormone implant to maybe give her reproductive system a break. she only molted...

@Eggcessive could I ask a question? My 3.5 year old blue australorp, ophelia. Has infectious bronchitis, probably marecks because 2 of my pullets passed 5 months and 1 month before ophelia became very sick. Last October when she molted her balance was off, now this October same, but she's not...
My 3.5 year old hen has infectious bronchitis (IBV) and Mycoplasma Gallisepticum (MG). she has flare ups and the vitamins shot helps.
Is it possible to purchase the injectable somewhere?
50.00 for the shot everytime I go to the vet.
She cannot take liquid by mouth. Always aspirate.
Thanks
my 3.5 year old blue australorp has infectious bronchitis and has started laying thin shell, breakable eggs. I have been giving her calcium for 10 days straight. 400mg a day plus D3. the eggs have improved but are thin just on the fat end now. I do not want to overload her with calicum and cause...
I got a new tattoo yesterday. theses are my girls. 6 on the dandelion are with my currently and the 4 floating away are the ones that have left too soon.
is this feather pecking? It is back of her head, i only found 3 feather in the run. They are broken off, not pulled out. Only on back of her head. I have not seen her flockmates do this. No wounds. She is having a flare up of MG. Do i give her antibiotics every time she has a flare up? She hasnt...

I have infectious bronchitis virus in my flock. I had one of the girls blood tested to confirm. They are 6 weeks post infection.
Only 4 out of 6 were affected. My 2 buff orphingtons have no symptoms or egg problems.
All were laying normal eggs prior to the virus.
My black australorp...
My hen weigs 4.5 pounds. I've been using liquid batril, but she is very difficult to give liquid in a syringe without aspiration. Tablets will be much easier and less stressful. Thank you!
i just want some opinions. Ophelia, my 3 year old blue australorp has a respiratory infection. do not know if it is viral or bacterial yet. she just had a culture today, but her droppings have some blood in the urates this week. Cannot send in a sample for fecal for 3 days and then wont have...
My 3 year old hen has not been feeling well. Stopped laying after rubber egg and empty membrane , then 4 days later laid sandpaper texture egg with this hard piece in the albumen and some spots on the yolk. Antibiotics? Will baytril work if it's an infection? Thank you.
Ophelia, my 3 year old blue australorp hen is sick. I'm getting a pcr test for mareks done tomorrow, but probably wont have results for 2 days. a flock mate that was 1 year old just passed a month ago from marek's per a necropsy. she has similar symptoms, but different poop. this is breaking my...
What is this ring from? It looks like blood up close. Another weird thing it was in the run, not the nesting box. Haven't had either of these scenarios before. Normal size.
