Cinnamon has made a full recovery. She wouldn't eat or drink for 2 days but we kept her hydrated, making her drink with a syringe every hour. She slowly started to perk up finally eating and drinking on her own. We finally got into a vet, he ruled out coccidiosis and Marek's and said she...
She just made some more improvement although she still isn't eating or drinking. She got a burst of energy and started trying to jump out of the box we have her in, we pulled her out and she was trying to join her clutch mates in their pen. She tuckered herself out and sleeping in a more normal...
This is Cinnamon.
Today she is slightly improved, she is preening her feathers some and looking around more. She is very unsteady on her feet, like she has vertigo. We thought about coccidiosis and picked up some Corid but the people at the Farm supply store didn't think it sounded like it since...
Thank you, she only weighs 1.5 lbs so I can give her .5cc. She's not eating or drinking at all. we are focusing more on keeping her hydrated (not sure how much she needs a day though) We have force fed her a little, her crop is empty. Very little pooping (since not eating) maybe 6 tiny ones all...
Hello and Help?
I just purchased a bottle of Nutri-Drench at the recommendation of our feed store. We have sick chick. She's 9 weeks old, suddenly stopped eating and drinking. We are feeding and watering her by dropper. I'm not sure i understand the directions. I've diluted it in her water and...
Oh that's too bad, Its wonderfully helpful. For reliable studies try the homeopathic research institute. And Thanks, we love our girls, a RIR, Americana and a Barnvelder. what do you have?

I'm taking a class on Homeopathy (an alternative form of medicine) and we were just studying paralysis of lower limbs for people, dogs and other animals. I would try either "Lathyrus" or "Causticum" on your little guy. Its safe, natural and won't hurt him to try...
Yay! Been so hoping to find people who use homeopathy for their chickens. I want to utilize this amazing and safe form of health care for my girls.
Thanks for the PRID recommendation, I had not heard of it. I just checked it and your post out and it sounds great! We haven't gotten bumble foot...

I put aconite 30c in my chic's water shortly after bringing them home from the feed store. After dinking it they promptly calmed down and slept for 2hrs! I was impressed with the dramatic effect it had on them. Prior to the remedy they were frightened, peeping and running around the brooder. Not...
Hello! I'm newish myself. I've been using this site since maybe April when we got our first chicks! (This is a wonderful site!)
I to had looked for the signature info and just recently found out that until you have posted (I think the number is 10) posts your "Edit signature" will not show up...
Thank you! We have the 3 hens. They are only 8 months old. (our first chicken raising experience) 2 are laying and the third started to lay but then started moulting and stopped laying. They are very spoiled and we love them so much!
