    Wheezing 4 week old Silkie

    Well I thought so but I couldn’t see any actual substance to the blood. Just looked liquid. But I checked every chick over head to toe and couldn’t find any wounds or anything. But the one chick that died. And she didn’t have any wounds either. I can treat with corid now in the water? They are...

    @casportpony i need you help again. So after all the debacle on this powder. My smaller chicks started with a sneezing. I know I know. That big bad disease is in questions. But here’s the thing. Just one or two chicks started last week with the symptoms. Nothing big. Just some wheezing here...

    It took her a bit before she started doing it again. You can hear the wheeze afterwards too.

    Well they’ve ALL been drinking water now for about 3 minutes straight. Poor babies. Man I feel terrible. I just can’t read instructions like that. You’re amazing. Thank you. Also, my wheezing Silkie is drinking great but after she raises her head and does the swell owing, she’s taking a deep...

    That’s exactly what I was thinking. Poor babies. I noticed yesterday and today they were barely drinking any of it. I just thought it was nasty tasting. Now I know it was wayyyy to strong.

    Wheezing 4 week old Silkie

    So here’s where I’m at. I have this much water they’re barely drinking. Should I dump this, give them a smaller waterer, and do a smaller dose? Like 2 quarts? He told me do the 1/2 bag per gallon. But I didn’t realize how slowly they drink water they don’t like ☹️ And it just didn’t dawn on me...

    And it sounds like to me that isn’t enough to treat all those birds. Like they aren’t drinking this water barely. They would have to drink every bit of that water to do anything??

    Wheezing 4 week old Silkie

    Ok guys. After a $30 bag of tetracycline powder.... I mixed a gallon for a flock of 8- 4 weeks old chicks. It took1/2 the bag. Probably a big mistake seeing as they haven’t even drank 1/4 of it and it’s changing colors?! Like the powder made the water yellow. And it’s darkening I’m the...

    I was hoping not to go straight to antibiotics but I just spoke with the breeder and a vet friend so I’ll be starting tetracycline tomorrow morning.
