Do I repeat in 10-14 days?

Thank you so much for clarifying for me. I’m not familiar with aquasol and clearly wasn’t paying attention closely enough to what I was reading. So, with Safeguard, how long is egg withdrawal? General practice vets and vet techs often have limited experience with chickens. Everything I’ve...

I’ve read two conflicting posts regarding Safeguard dewormer. One post states “0.023 ml/kg” And the second states “0.23 ml/kg”. Obviously this dosage would be a daily dose for 1-3 days. Can anyone confirm which is the correct dosage? Would the deworming/sudden parasitic death be so much of a...

Oops! That’s what I meant to type! Thank god I wasn’t giving .9cc! Thanks for the input!

Denagard can be given orally to individual chickens at a dosage of 0.9cc per pound of body weight. Can anyone tell me if this is 0.9cc once a day or 0.9cc twice a day?

Denagard can be given orally to individual chickens at a dosage of 0.9cc per pound of body weight. Does anyone know if this is 0.9cc once daily or twice daily.

Oops. Sorry. Ventura, California.

I’ll be hatching chicks in about 1.5 weeks. Where is the best place to order the vaccine and is there obe vaccine that you recommend more than another?

I had 1 hen develop Mareks symptoms literally overnight. She was apparently healthy; eating, laying well, great body weight and feather condition, no diarrhea. She is completely paralyzed. 1 year old. Another hen, who I’ve posted about recently, has been laying eggs with absolutely no shell...

Aww. She’s probably peck you if she saw you called her a “dud” 😂

Nope

What type of feed do you recommend? I will buy it. I wonder if I can do something for her shell gland. 🤔

Here is our Julio

Thank you so much for your reply. I purchased calcium citrate with D3 and have been giving 1 tablet once daily for 4 days now. I watched Peyton pass an egg- yellow and white- with NO shell last night. I suspected this had happened a couple of times before, but by the time I saw the egg, the...

Thank you so much! I will get the calcium citrate and start tomorrow. And calcium gluconate should be used for an egg bound hen, correct? Can calcium gluconate ever be used orally instead of SQ or IM?

Are the calcium citrate tablets big? Do they dissolve quickly? Or do you put it down her throat with a pill popper?

I have a 2 yo hen that has started laying soft shell eggs. This happens to maybe 60-70% of the eggs she lays. She eats laying crumble and has oyster shells and dried, crushed eggshell at all times. she eats, is alert, of good body weight and exhibits no outward signs of illness. I purchased...

😔I thought so. Thanks for the reply

I have a smaller coop that I want to move them into once they hatch. I was going to do it several days ago, but didn’t want her to get confused and stop sitting on them And o didn’t want to chance moving the eggs Thank you for your reply 😊👍🏼

I have a giant blue Cochin laying on 13 eggs (unfortunately!). I don’t know why I let her sit on that many. I feel terrible. Anyway, they were put under her within a few days of each other. Many were due today. One has hatched and a second has a zip line ( is that what it’s called?). The nest...
