    Boiled Oregano leaf for 1 month-old chicks?

    Should I use antibiotics on the whole flock?

    I have a hen (1 1/2 year old bantam Cochin) who suddenly last week went to lay an egg, instead spewed nasty green diarrhea, and hasn’t been right since. She has been to the vet twice, worms and bacteria. I worked the flock, she is on amoxicillin. She went back to normal but then down hill again...

    Is it possible for a chicken to forget how to eat?

    Been treating a hen for about 4 months. First she had what I thought was fowlpox, then she became lame, so I treated for vitamin deficiency. Along that time she just stopped eating. She does drink. So I’ve been torpedo feeding her. I took her to a vet, who gave her antibiotics she then developed...

    Hen with salpingitis - doxycycline or amoxicillin for antibiotic treatment and how do you get them?

    I have a 2 year old hen that recently laid a lash egg. She has been eating and drinking and acting normally. When I checked her vent it looked okay, maybe a little prolapsed, but when I pushed on her abdomen some pus did come out of the vent. I was able to get amoxicillin and have been giving...

    Antibiotics - treat, pause, then treat again?

    I've got one chicken who has been sluggish for the last few months. A month ago I gave her Clavamox pills for 5 days and she got slightly better (maybe coincidence). Can I give her another 5-7 day treatment?

    Getting Tylan

    I wanted to post some information about getting your hands on Tylan, an important medication for Mycoplasma Gallisepticum. I'm sure someone else has made a thread about this somewhere, and I know a lot of information about this is widely known, but I recently had a lot of trouble getting my...

    Giving enrofloxacin (Baytril) a second time?

    I treated my geese a while ago for a respiratory infection with enrofloxacin, symptoms got a lot better but never fully cleared after the 5 days. They are still having mild symptoms and I’m unsure if I should give them the same antibiotic again now that some time has passed and it hasn’t cleared...

I did a tremendously...
