Thanks again! For everything. It is scary but having you guys to walk me through things seriously does help! I’m so paranoid tho with the rest of my babies! I feel like me just waiting for the next one to get sick again b4 treatment is a huge gamble. The past 3 happened just like that and well you know how that went I swear if it’s poison I’m going to flip my lid and I’m going to knock on every neighbors door until I find out who and let them know how frigged up it is using poison and that it cost me 3 of my babies lives. Not just my chickens what about other wild birds and animals? Or peoples cats or other pets?! If it possibly is poison though how come my other two didn’t have poops like that or sticky saliva? Idk it’s making nuts!I'm so sorry you are going through this grief with losing these chickens. It's deeply scary not knowing what is causing this. I was perplexed over the mucous in the mouth and the black substance in the poop, and both those symptoms can indicate poisoning. Usually, toxic poisoning kills quickly, but rodent poison kills slowly.
I'm glad you are going to fight for some answers. Call here and they will be able to tell you where to get the necropsy.
