    10% Iodine for Favus

    Hello, I think I have a couple chickens with favus. One was positively diagnosed by a vet months ago. I’ve tried miconizole, but I couldn’t keep up with twice a day every day. I have a 10% iodine I could use, but I know that’s a higher percentage than recommended. Do you think I could still use...

    Black dots & chapped looking combs on hens

A week later I noticed a chapped like substance & black dots on her comb. My husband seems to think the spots are dirt and the...

    Possibly blind rooster, sick?

    Hello everyone m, My young rooster Rambo seems to have an eye that seems a little gray, which leads me to believe that eye might be blind. He sometimes let that eye closed, or like this morning, it looks like his eyelids are sticky and stuck together (1st picture). That eye always looks like...

    Favus suspected, thoughts?

    Hi All! It never fails, but I go on vacation and come back to one of my hens faces like this! Poor baby, looks so uncomfortable! I washed her face with just soap and water yesterday and started Miconazole cream, but wanted to confirm my thoughts and google research. Do we agree favoring Favus...

    I think it’s favus not sure.

    Both of them are scratching their faces more than normal. I’m treating with a worming cream and clotrimazole and doesn’t seem to be too effective. Should i buy miconazole and tolnaftate? Any tips?🙏

    Dry comb or favus?

    Hi all, I recently noticed that 4 out of my 5 buff Orpingtons have white on their combs. I’m a newbie. I’m hoping that someone with more experience can weigh in on whether this is just dry skin or a fungal infection. They are 7 months old, laying well and behaving like they usually do. Here are...

Also, first time flock owner and wanting confirmation... I have included some really close up photos, and...

    Fowl pox, Favus, or something else?

    On Wednesday, November 11, we discovered yellowish blisters on Bonnie's comb. She's a 7-month-old Brown Leghorn who just started laying about two weeks ago.

    Fowl Pox or Favus?

    One of my chickens started looking poorly on Monday (April 8). Tail down and lethargic. We've had very healthy chickens and no problems for a few years now, so it was definitely a surprise when this one started acting sick. I know chickens are great at hiding illness, so when we notice...
