Hey so I have a question about my black copper maran. It's not acting sick at all. But she's got some problem with her eyes. I noticed this a while ago. I'm hoping it's not mericks. The pupil is not a perfect circle. It's like the black color has bled to the bottom of her eye. Or maybe it's just...
My chicken died tonight. Sorry I have no good suggestions. I still don't know what was wrong with her. The guy I bought her from said I should've started her on the tylan 50 days ago. And that it was too late. So I dunno. Sorry I'm not much help :(
I called the guy I got her from and he said to give her tylan 50 injections so I've been doing that for three days now and she's gone up in weight just a few oz. I'm giving her lots of extra tlc. Thanks for your thoughts and advice. Hopefully she keeps improving!
Anyone have any ideas on what is wrong with my chicken? She's a RIR and about 17 weeks old. I only have 2 chickens. I got her and my EE when they were 12 weeks old. We thought she had coccidiosis so I put her on corid for several days. Obviously that wasn't it. She is just so tiny. She weighed...
So my RIR is still the same. I've been racking my brain for the last 3 days trying to figure out what's wrong with her. I've been giving her water with corid in the water feeder and corid drenches. Her main symptoms are: hunched up looking with her head tucked in, sleeping a lot, anemic, and...
Sorry to bother you again. I just want to make sure I get this right. So I mix 1/2 tsp with 10ml of water and I'm only giving her .07 ml once a day for three days?
I don't know how much she weighs. I don't have a scale. She's petite though, definitely lighter than the EE that is her same age. I'm going to start the medicine first thing in the morning. Thanks for all your help ;)
Tractor supply says they only have it online unless there are some left on shelves. Something about pulling all over the counter meds as of January 1 st. So they're not ordering it anymore. I'm still looking into it.
So I went to three different places no one had Corid. I have to order it. The only thing they had on hand was oxytetracycline. I'm not sure if that'll help. But it'll be a couple days till I get her the right stuff :(
She came from a guy in California who had his own business. He had hundreds of birds. I was thinking mixed too because of the lack of feathers on the face but there is some slight green in her legs (very slight). But not like the darker green I've had in the past on other EE's.
Here's two pics. [/IMG]When she does walk she walks all hunched up. But she doesn't walk a lot it almost seems like she's tired and lays down again. I only have two chickens. I got them from the same guy but he had hundreds of chickens so she could have picked up something there.
