    My dad thinks it's a brain tumor...

    Well I don't think the chicken suffered because she had Mareks anyway; we all do our best and I'm sure that's what your mom is trying to do...my 17 year old son says that I talk loud or yell and embarrass him too; he thinks that everyone notices everything. just try to hang in there; you're...

    My dad thinks it's a brain tumor...

    I wouldnt suggest the tailpipe. I tried it once with a sick bird at the suggestion of someone who I thought knew...and it was not a good thing. I put the bird in a box and set up a vacume hose from the tailpipe to the box and taped it. The emissions are very hot and I found that even if the bird...

    Antibiotics will treat either "gram positive" infection or "gram negative" infections. If you google the antibiotic you're using you shouldbe able to figure out if its for gram positive or negative, and then google which antibiotic would treat the opposite type of infection. Most of the water...

    Are your chickens vaccinated for Mareks? it sounds a little like mareks to me. They limp and then it gets progressively worse with paralysis.

    Use a cat nail clipper. Get some syptic powder and only snip a tiny bit at a time. Wait a few days between tiny trims.

    My dad thinks it's a brain tumor...

    My dad thinks it's a brain tumor...

    Mia, is the black thing like a ball? is it hard?...its normal to have some old and new blood in there when youve drained an abscess. it could be the place where the infection pushed through to pool in the back of the head. Its pretty unlikely that its something like cancer...its probably either...

    Great work Mia! Tylan is a good medicine for infections. If she is sniffling still you may want to try some sulmet or gallimycin. The feed store might have it or can order it. The black stuff is probably old blood in a clot. it shouldn't be a problem to take it out or to scrape around and make...
