Greetings Chicken Kate,
We've all had health issues with out flocks. But really, the best thing you can do is boost the immune systems of your chickens. Proper feeding is only part of it, good husbandry practices, a stress free environment, adding herbs like echinacea and aloe vera to the diet...
My condolences to you, MINDANAO DAVE.
Good health is definitely a struggle, not only for human beings, but also, for all the species of animals we care for.
God's Blessings, peace and good health to you and yours.
Greetings Chicken Kate,
If you have a broad spectrum antibiotic, administer some now orally. Enrofloxacin, .2 mL, twice daily, is a good one; you can also use Albon suspension (not broad spectrum), which is for dogs. Albon will treat certain bacterial infections as well as coccidiosis.
There...
