Ahh, yes - My Pet Chicken said my chicks were coming out of Ohio... I didn't know that they sourced out! Meyer's has an excellent reputation too!!! I'm still happy with them because I really like the fact that they have women there to answer the phones all week, who all seem really...

@Wyorp Rock, yes - it was very interesting listening & learning from her - and I can touch type, so I wrote down almost every word she said!!! Her knowledge was broad & amazing, and it was a very enlightening conversation. She TOTALLY agreed with the use of Baytrill... so you and @Eggcessive...

Well!!! Final update: I talked at great length - to the vet in poultry division at the Agricultural department, at the state capital in Trenton. She was SO nice, helpful and informative, (she even gave me her last name, and her cell phone number!) and she took a good hour on the phone with...

I am going to contact the lab in Trenton - and find out what they can do, yes. I'll post when I get any info. I think I've got to know... this was just so bizarre.

Thank you @Eggcessive... I am so appreciative for the time and energy that you, @Wyorp Rock @casportpony offered. I know you all offered everything within your knowledge to help guide me through this, and help her... but I guess it just was beyond our power. :( But everyone's efforts...were...

It's been 4 days since I administered the last dose of a 5 day course of Baytrill to my Australorp Opal. - (that was 2 doses a day, 1 morning & 1 night - of .025ml - for 5 days). It's been 22 days now since I first began to worrying about her, giving her warm soaks in epsom salts for her...

I just took some warm, cooked rice out to her... topped with some sunflower seeds. I didn't have any cottage cheese - I'll get some tomorrow if I can get out... it's getting wicked cold here in the next few hours - and the girls are in for a real fast, deep freeze. I'm going to leave her...

Hi, Good morning! I don't see that yellow looking stuff anymore... it's just super runny. I was SO glad to read this...I was starting to feel a little discouraged. I didn't know the meds would cause more diarrhea, so I'm glad to know it. I have that yogurt, and the powder Pro-Bios, and...

Hi, I've given her 5 doses of the Baytrill so far... starting last Thursday night (the night it arrived in the mail). I"m taking her special, yummy breakfasts so she'll eat in the AM then dosing her... and at night after she's in the coop with a full crop. But she's still got the ucky liquid...

I've been giving her favorite treats this week, but she's had NO interest in food - especially over the last few days. I felt her getting thin. Her crop looks a little better, and she's moving around a bit, but she still wasn't showing interest in food or favorite treats. Today, around 2:30...

Thank you so much ladies! :love It just came in the mail and I"m out to give her her first dose... THANK YOU SOOOOO SOOO Much for the picture @casportpony! :) I'll do a second dose for her tonight then, around 10 pm...

@Eggcessive - @Wyorp Rock and @casportpony - oh my it is a bit confusing for sure!!! But this is clear now and much better... I thought I understood, until I got the syringe out and saw 'ml'.... and was like OH NOOO!!! And googling 'conversions' online was even MORE confusing because they...

Ok.. Yes, she's 5 lbs... and i'm the WORST at math... oof! So the ml syringe will be filled to .25 ml... (which is half way between the .2 and .3 line... correct?

I think she's about 5 lbs... An laying Australorp hen... but I think she's slimmed down a little since this started last week... but about 5 pounds...

@Eggcessive & @Wyorp Rock!!! She's still hanging in, but I can see she's still feeling terrible... but I'm SO glad I just tracked the package of Baytrill - and it is out for delivery right now!!! So I can start her on it as soon as it comes... So... I re-read the dosage again that you wrote...

Ok good, that's kinda what I thought as well - and I hesitate to disrupt their structure and routines... and wouldn't want to cause stress. Fortunately, a few months ago my husband and I added a big, totally enclosed run to the coop & run that previously existed - so now they have lots of...

Ok, THANK YOU!!!! I just put in an order for Enrofloxicin / Baytrill from the Jedds Bird Supply link you sent, and yes, your dosage description is very clear... I understand. I'm gonna have to re-read it when I'm ready to give it to her - but I have it! I keep a file on all of this, incase...

@Wyorp Rock, I'm at the NJ shore... but a State Lab is an excellent idea... I'll have to call the town's Health department & inquire asap this morning. I had a fecal float done on all the girls this past November 2018, it was negative but it was $50 for one. I'll watch her for a few more...

Good morning! Ok, I called the vet this morning. The Gram stain, will cost me $200... JUST for the lab work, not even including the fecal float which I know here runs around $50. So here's what I'm thinking... it's probably not worms since everyone was wormed last Thursday, (& my husband...

Thank you @Eggcessive (I'm not sure how to use the "quote" thing... but since both you and @Wyorp Rock are helping me here... I wanted to address you both in context... and can't say again, how grateful I am for both your inputs. I need a plan... that's for sure. So my first step is fecal...
