These are incredible pictures and your birds are so exotic! I was able to find a small bag of Ultra Kibble and am testing it now. It took some effort but I have the feed information - We are feeding a Purina Game Bird mix that is labeled Growth and Plummage but none of the information ON the...

Thank you both very much for the support. My husband thinks I am losing my mind because I am spending every spare moment scrutinizing poo and watching birds for odd behavior. (Because we are also caring for 2 old dogs and have recently had a major death in family.) The two hens that died before...

I thought about it - but I wasn't sure my untrained eye would be able to figure anything out plus I'm just so sad with all the loss this fall that I guess I was avoiding one more try and fail. I definitely would have asked our Extension Office to help me find an option for laboratory analysis...

okay - good to know. I probably could have caught her without too much chaos on Wednesday but it didn't seem she was as bad as she apparently was. When I wormed down the throat before, I only did 1 cc so next time will use the doses you quote here. One more question - Should they all be...

My hen died yesterday (Thursday) afternoon. She roosted the night before (Wednesday), had been drinking Corid in sugar water since Tuesday morning and was even pecking Thursday morning. Her weight was normal. The only thing that was different between finishing the extensive treatments...

Following up to my happy note and requesting some advice. As described in my happy report - I finished (11/10) dosing and maintenance (Emtryl and Corid) of my penned hens, 2 of 4 had been noticeably affected by an apparent combination of Blackhead followed by Coccidiosis. After 2 weeks of...

Thanks for this thread that empowered me to save 7 of my 9 birds. Blackhead followed by Coccidiosis! I have had peacocks for about 10 years now. The first pair was given to me by an older couple that was quitting. My first male lost a battle with a Muscovy drake and was replaced. The...
