I will make sure to give her the supplements and do the safeguard in 10 days. Yes, I have heard of echinacea, we actual do alternative meds, I just never thought to try them on animals lol, I will give it shot and see if that helps! I really do appreciate everyone's advice and help. I love...
update: we cleared out both sides of her nose...I feel so bad for this poor little Silkie (Pearl), like I said we bought her from our local chicken swap, which is not regulated by any means, I can only guess what kind of conditions she was living in! She can now breath so much better, and her...
