What is the injectable dose and frequency of LA200. I have read multiple answers on here and Google searches. Some say 1ml for large breed, but even the box says 0.5ml per 10lbs. Also, is it daily (once or twice), or every three days; and for how long?
thank you in advance
About 3 weeks ago a fox attacked one of my hens, I didn’t realize until today that he actually got deeper than the feathers. There’s a huge open infected wound I found tonight. I cleaned it up with peroxide and water and rubbed some Neosporin triple antibiotic on there for tonight. I have some...
Help! I have 5 silkie chicks about 5 days old. I just noticed two have their outer toes curled in. While it may be genetic, I read that Nutri-Drench may help in case it’s a nutrient deficiency. Anyway, I’m getting all mixed up on the dosage amounts. At first, I mixed 30ml ND to 1/2 a gallon of...
Hi yall! This is my second year being a chicken momma, so still pretty new to things. I had a sick chicken a few months ago and bought everything under the sun to try to save her, and one of the things that was recommended by someone local was all in one powder for pigeons. She swears by it... I...
So I have a duck that has had a cough going back over a month ago. I used vet-rx and she eventually seemed to shake it, but the last week or so she developed labored mouth breathing. Taking her to the vet is not an option, and I have been trying things on my own that I hope may have a chance of...
We have a 4 month old Ameraucana with a swollen right foot. It’s been swollen for a month now and she has a limp. We treated it as bumblefoot with soaks and wrapping but it never changed and no scab appeared. We stopped bandaging it after 5 days because the bandage seemed to be doing more harm...
Hey guys, I think I’m in trouble here. One of my chickens a respiratory bacterial infection pretty bad, and some of my others seems to be developing it. What’s the best antibiotic that I can buy? I know Corid is for coccidiosis and it’s for cows, but there’s a dosage for chickens that they can...
Is the dose on the bottle correct orrrr ??? I don’t want to accidentally overdose my birds but don’t want to underdose either. I’ve seen varying things. Also if it is correct, it would be 0.3 on the syringe right? For 6-7 lb hen? Don’t worry, I will measure them to get an exact weight beforehand...
My little girl has had wry neck since August. She can eat and drink on her own now but she still loses control of her head and it will twist under her and almost windmill till she regains control. I have her inside and I take her out to visit her sisters and she can walk around with her head...
I have a wheezing, sneezing hen, which I suspect has gapeworm. Today, on my way to work, I spent ~$30 on liquid safeguard 10% dewormer for goats, knowing from this site that its okay to use in chickens. My wheezing hen is separated, in my basement ATM but I am planning on treating the whole...
So awhile ago I bought some of this Tyclosin 500 powder off a Ukraine website that said it was basically just powder Tylan 50%. It has dosages on it, but I am kind of dumb when it comes to directions sometimes and I'm not very good at math. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the...
I originally posted about my ill, 6 month old BO pullet here. In a nutshell, she went off her feed and was having pretty explosive green diarrhea, often chunky and reminiscent of c. perfringens photos I've seen on the web. Despite all that, she was still energetic (and a huge pain in my ass per...
Hello!
I have a three year old silkie rooster (his name is Bloom) who I believe has worms. He lost a lot of weight, he poop is slightly green, he's less energetic. He still eats though. He's also been sleeping in a nest box which is something he hasn't done for awhile. I lost a hen and this...
Hello! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. On two separate occasions in the past couple of days, I've noticed a teeny tiny bit of slimey orangish possibly reddish stringy (not worms or wormy) matter in some feces in the brooder with my nine 3 & 4 week old chicks. I wanted to treat with...
I have about 30 chicks in my barn and just yesterday I noticed poop that seemed a little bloody. Sure enough i confirmed it to be bloody poop today. (Im used to seeing intestinal shedded poop).
I have Corid and will start, but can someone help me confirm dosage? And would it help at all to feed...
Hey everyone, so I just picked up some amoxicillin for my chicken who I’m pretty sure has a respiratory infection. I’ve read that the dosage for chickens is 125mg twice daily. My problem is that the pills come in 500mg and are not solid so I can’t divide them up. It’s just a powder capsule.
My...
I have a little lavender orphington that's about 9 weeks. She has struggled since she was about a week old and I'm still not sure what is wrong.
She started to act sick around 1 week, eyes closed, squinting, and sleepy but no other symptoms, no drainage, nothing. I treated my flock with corid...
So I’ve heard that Tylan can be bought in powder form and injection form and I need it for my chickens. I can’t find the powder form anywhere without having a prescription, but my local Tractor Supply has the injection form. I just feel really squeamish about injecting something into an animal...
I just purchased 6 chicks from the local Rural King, none seem to be sickly, all are eating drinking, etc. One, however, has a little bit of runny poop and it's back end seems to be bothering it, it preens very frequently back there, as if it's itchy.... Horror stories have me assuming the worst...
Hi everyone! I have an sweet little bantam easter egger named Darling that may be showing signs of a respiratory illness. She keeps one of her eyes closed. It doesn't look irritated, red or swollen but she does keep it closed most of the time. I've noticed a few days ago her pecking was off when...
