Okay, so we went to the vet today and they did a swab test and have now put her on the following: 1. 250mg amoxycillin / clavulanic acid tablet twice a day for 7 days. 2. 25mg enrofloxacin tablet twice a day for 7 days. The vet said that these would be the best antibiotics for the results on...

Thank-you !

Sally has been vaccinated for Mycoplasma so hopefully it's not that ! I have booked an appointment with an avian specialist vet for Tuesday morning, so lets see what they have to say!

I have photos and I just saw that post after I posted last night. Thanks Wyorp Rock ! I'm going to ring the vet as soon as they're open to see what to do next. I'm not sure if we have those drops in Australia, but I will ask the vet too ! Please excuse her messy face as she is having...

So the wormer I was given is called Ausmectin Drench. The vet said it has exactly the same ingredients as the wormer which has the chicken label on it. There isn't any puss in her eye as I don't believe it ever got to the stage of infection, just liquid in her eye and swollen. I have looked at...

Just wondering, does anyone know how long it takes for the swelling of the sinus to go down ? Her eye is still watery too. Also, I wormed them yesterday afternoon and I have checked as many poops as possible and I can't see any worms in them ? Shouldn't there be worms ?

Thanks Wyorp Rock! She was so much better this afternoon ! Running around and eating everything she could !! :D I have been to the vet and the wormer they gave me is a liquid to be fed by syringe (without the needle), so I will start this tomorrow. The vet said that they will then start...

Casportpony, are they good wormers ? Do people have good success with this type ?

Wyorp Rock, yes she is drinking. I'll try the boiled egg this afternoon. Can I feed it to her warm or does the egg need to cool down in the fridge first ? I'll go to the produce store and see if I can buy grit only. I've only ever seen shell grit, but it's full of calcium and I don't think she...

I'm not sure what types we have, but I phoned the vet and they said they can give me a wormer which goes on the chickens back. They said they need to know how many chickens I have and their weight, so I'm not sure which brand this would be.

So this morning she looks much better and really got into eating the porridge and fresh veggies I gave her for breakfast ... but I food a poop with a worm in it !!!!!! I don't know who's poop it is though, so what do I do ? Do I worm the whole flock ? Also, do I need a wormer specific to this...

So all she wanted was bread. Small pieces only, she's eating slowly. I might try some rolled oats warmed up in the microwave for her breakfast ? We then gave her the dose of antibiotic and about 2 minutes later she vomited. I did not re-dose as I am unsure if she threw it all up or not. I...

Thanks casportpony. I will be in contact with the vet this afternoon if she still isn't eating.

My hen's face was a little bit swollen on one side. Her eye is also weeping and there were some little bubbles on Sunday too. There also seems to be a little bit coming from her nose on the side that's infected but all liquids are clear and no funky smells. I took her to the vet and they...
