Thank you. I hope your girl pulls through. I didn't have time to do much but consult the vet. I found her around 5 PM last night and she was gone this morning at 9...
Thanks so much, Lisa! I will get the rest of the meds tonight. I will probably have to wait on the pred till next week though. Unless, I have some lurking in my cabinet from my dogs allergies...
My vet has been my vet since I was 3...I am dreading the day that he retires. I can call him up...
So sorry to hear about your blind girl. She probably got turned around in all the rain and got lost, poor thing
I am giving the silkie with the neuro damage poly vi sol. I will try and get out to get vitamin b and selenium. Can I find both at Walmart? How do you dose?
Seems you live less...
Thanks. I don't know how I could have caught it sooner...but, I wish I had. With the rain every day, we aren't spending as much time with the chickens. I do observe them everyday and I'm angry that I didn't see anything amiss before yesterday. She was my only showgirl and I will miss her....

She was doing so much better last night....
RIP little Mae...

Aaaah yeast....I see you are in PA, too. We have had so much rain that I wouldn't be surprised by a yeast problem. So, do you think I should put the ACV back into the water and just give vitamins orally? I have only had chickens since May 1st and I am getting a crash course in every known...
After the dose of yogurt and olive oil and some massages, her crop is getting smaller. She is still acting very sick. I gave her ACV water and then some poly vi sol with an eye dropper. I then mixed some poly vi sol in her water. She seems to really need some nutrition. I wasn't sure that...
I am at a loss and don't know what else to do so I would really appreciate some help. I have researched and with so many differing opinions on treatments, I was really hoping for some good, sound advice...
Hi Everyone...I am looking for some help. I have a 20 week old Showgirl that has a very large, squishy crop. She also feels as if she has lost a good deal of weight. They have been cooped up for the last few days except for a couple hours each day when it hasn't been raining. Until today...
