Hi folks
Im wondering how long after stopping a medication like OXY SOL , you guys would wait before eating the chickens eggs. Two weeks? A month? Longer?
Here is our situation....
We had 8 chickens (they are all about 23 weeks, so one is now laying, as of last week...the others aren't mature...
Hello there! I have 4 Bourbon red hens, 2 of which are coughing for 3 weeks now. I have been treating them with 1.5ml Tylan 200 orally and little improvement. ( They really really hate this by now) I am looking for any help. I cant get water soluble antibiotics, I heard you need a rx. They...
I just got home from work tonight (just before midnight) and noticed our younger Easter Egger had some clear discharge coming out of her nose. She also sounded a little "croupy" if that makes any sense. It's substantially colder tonight than it has been all summer. All of the other birds look...
Hi! Yesterday I noticed one of my Leghorns is coughing. She seems otherwise healthy - running around, eating, laying, comb looks fine, clear eyes and nose, no mucus. She was still coughing this morning, although not as much. I've quarantined her from the others and was planning on picking up...
One of my Americaunas is sneezing, wheezing and is coughing. I picked her up and it sounded like there was a slight gurgle. I watched her today and she seems to be acting fine, such as eating and drinking normally. I know that it has been raining a lot here in Georgia and I'm wondering if it's...
CONTEXT
I'm a first time chicken owner. About three weeks ago, we bought a batch of six hens from a reputable poultry farm. We've got three hybrids and three purebreds.
PROBLEM
7–10 days ago, our Rhode Island Red hen started coughing a bit. It seems to get worse in cold weather. See a video of...
I have a hen that seems to be coughing but nothing else appears to be wrong. No eye problems, no visible drainage and she's still eating and drinking normally. I ordered some Vet rx on Amazon but would this be something that needs an antibiotic or is there any other natural remedies I should...
Hi everybody,
Long time lurker first time poster; you guys have helped me out a lot with questions I had in the past but I couldn't find anything quite like this. I have a gander who looks like he has something stuck in his throat (a feather maybe?). Usually I'd just let him deal with it but he...
This morning 3 of my 16 girls emerged from the coop with what I can only describe as wheezing! Some sneezing from two of them and another seems to be coughing (can chickens cough?). One of the two that is sneezing also has a hoarse voice -- her egg song today sounded like a raspy jazz singer...
I've noticed a lot of people from Canada have an issue with buying VetRx due to many suppliers not shipping it across borders. This is understandable as not all countries have the same medication regulations, but for all my Canadian and Non-U.S inhabitants I have some easily found oils that...
I'm writing because 4 of my 5 chickens are sick with runny noses, a cough and frequent sneezing.
They live together in a 20 x 20 fenced in coop and since they've been sick (almost 3 weeks) I have not been giving them free range. I rake their coop regularly, give them fresh water daily and...
