    Pullet wasting away, worms or something else?

    The vet did a fecal float and did not find coccidiosis or worms. She wasn’t very specific about what she thought it might be beyond something digestive. I did break up the “lash egg”, to me it looks like pus and orange mush. I’m wondering if I should get some other antibiotic on my own. I...

    My nine week old cream legbar is not doing well, last Thursday (8/10) I noticed she was drinking a lot of water and not behaving like herself but I figured she would get over it. She rapidly declined after this, now she is emaciated and showing signs of dehydration and muscle weakness. There are...
