I am no expert, but it sounds like something is hurting him. I know you said he didn't hurt himself, but he could have a leg injury or back injury. Does he seem lethargic or just slow? If his energy is the same yet he moves slower than usual I would suspect an injury. If he is acting lethargic...

Do they have a clean water supply? E. Coli can be spread through contaminated food or water.

Hi Thanks so much for replying! His feet seem to be fine. No scratches or anything unusual. It has been so difficult trying to figure out what is going on with him. I did consider arthritis as well. I think the vet mentioned this also. The vet did a reflex test on him where he held him and...

Hi, I have a sick rooster. He is weak and falls over all the time. This has been going on for over a month now. He doesn't seem to be getting any worse or any better. I have had him on baytril for about 6 days now. I have not seen any improvement. He is still eating good and acting alert. He...

Hi, I didn't check his crop tonight but a few nights back I did and it was full of food. It emptied out by the next morning. He seems to be eating OK. I have also been giving him a mashed up hard boiled egg or yogurt everyday. He eats all of it up enthusiastically. I have considered an eyesight...

OK well it has been a couple weeks. I thought I'd try some Durmycin 10 for a little while first. He has not improved and has gotten just a little worse. So I decided to take him to the vet. The vet was not sure what was wrong with him, he said a bacteria infection is low on his list of...

If she is free of mites, lice, fleas, and worms, than it could be a bacteria infection in her intestines. That's what I am dealing with right now with my rooster. He is acting the exact same way. He has been like this for about a month now. I spent several weeks worming him and dusting him...

Well I bought some poultry spray that is harmless to chickens but kills mites, lice, and fleas. I sprayed him with that. I have dusted the coop with Sevin. I sprayed the walls with orange guard. I gave him a bath too. I looked through his feathers and didn't see anything there. I am pretty sure...

Yes he is molting. Would that make him weak enough for him to have balance issues?

My rooster has been ill for about a month now. It has been a very slow decline, yet he is still eating a lot and drinking as normal. He is very skinny though. I gave him wazine about 3 weeks ago thinking he had worms. With no improvement after a week I started him on duramycin. Still no...

My rooster has been ill for about a month now. He has a hard time standing up in the morning and tends to flop around for a bit. Then once he's up he's OK and walks around. If he tries to bend down to pick at grass or food he has moments of imbalance but does not fall. He tends to get weary of...

Thanks! I might try the oil in the ear. My rooster is about 6 years old. His poop has been runny and is bright green. He eats a lot though. He tries not to let any of the hens eat because he wants it all to himself, which he never did before. His comb hasn't changed color, it is still red. His...

My rooster is acting very similar. I just treated him for worms and am hoping this is what is wrong with him because I also am stumped. Have you recently treated your hen for worms or checked to see if she has any other type of parasitic infestation? Something could be draining her of energy.

Hi I am hoping someone can help me figure out what is wrong with my rooster. About 2 weeks ago he started acting weak. He sits down all the time, looking like he just wants to rest, not laying on his side or anything. Then when he tries to stand up he starts to stumble and wobble and crash into...
