    Tapeworms?

    I am deworming my flock with albendazole and they received their first dose at 20mg/kg. On the 3rd full day after 1st dose, I noticed what I think are tapeworm segments in one of my girls poop. The white segments were moving but seemed to stop after some time. I followed the rest of the girls...

    Lethargic hen, loss of appetite

    My Polish hen is very unwell and I am at a loss. She is just shy of 2 years old and has been extremely healthy and a great layer.

    Dewormer suggestions?

    Lash egg?

    Discovered this rubbery material this morning and wondering if this appears to be a lash egg? I've never had a hen lay one before. I know which hen it is from because I actually have her already isolated inside due to laying several soft-shelled or shell-less eggs recently. I decided to separate...

    Coccidiosis treatment

    I recently treated 4 new chicks for coccidiosis with corid. Only one chick was exhibiting symptoms but treated them all and the sick chick recovered. This was at the end of June. I now believe 3 of my 5 adult hens are exhibiting symptoms so I am treating all 5 adults with corid. My question is...
