Thank you ~ after doing a bit of research I also believe that is the case. I greatly appreciate your quick replies.

My 1 year old lemon has a bloodly organ looking type discharge hanging from her rear. It was not there yesterday when we went to check on her and I didn't notice it this morning when I went to feed her, just saw it now as I was going out to fix some fencing. It almost looks like she was...

Hello! I am following up a previous thread related to my blue brahma, Blue. I adopted her at 2 months of age along with 3 other chickens who were at about 4 months of age from a ranch near my home. Within about 2 weeks Blue started showing signs of being sick but I didn't realize it, I thought...

Sounds like coccidia?

I am wanting to build a dust bath for our flock out of several used tires. I have been reading several different suggestions on what all to use, some suggest a mixture of wood ash, DE, sand, and soil. And then some say that just sand is fine. Is there any preference to this for them? Or any...

Thanks so much, that'd be great!

Awesome! Thank you for this comprehensive reply on how to help them. Everyone is perking back up now that I am giving approximately 1 cc of Tylan200 orally and also giving them extra protein (tuna) and plenty of treats. Last night I gave them the vitamins again in a wet mash (applesauce...

Thanks for the input! I'm so grateful for your replies. Today, I decided to squirt 1.5 ml Tylan200 in their mouths directly. I'm not sure if this is too much or too little or if I can give 2x a day. I also put vitamin e liquid and crushed selenium tablet with applesauce and plain yogurt into a...

I'm writing because 4 of my 5 chickens are sick with runny noses, a cough and frequent sneezing. They live together in a 20 x 20 fenced in coop and since they've been sick (almost 3 weeks) I have not been giving them free range. I rake their coop regularly, give them fresh water daily and...
