All My Chickens..... a coop opera!

Looks like this is what I’m dealing with…

Probably came from the damn wild birds like the lice did

I guess I can never hatch here again!

Oh no, this is awful news. I'm so sorry.
I've never heard of this.

I don’t know a lot about it but from what I have read it is not so bad. Can’t be cured but many do fine and only display symptoms when stressed.
I think you can also use antibiotics to help them over the worst of it - @BY Bob will know more about that and can help when he gets here.

Neither did I! I happen to come across a post on Facebook where someone mentioned it and snuffles in rabbits… so I immediately googled it and my gals have these exact symptoms! So I am pretty positive that is what it is
Thank you though

Yea, I have been reading up on it… I just hope everyone survives… one of my bantams does not look good and I thought she could be egg bound but I think it’s this… but she did come out today so hopefully she is on the mend
They say the mortality rate is low but they will be carriers forever
Also, pretty sure it came from the wild birds I’ve been dealing with all year!
I have been speaking to Bob about it… he gave me his phone number… he prolly wishes he didn’t
