One of my hens, Calico, has a egg-binding problem. See the original thread here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/878264/help-needed-nasty-egg-binding-problem#post_13348209
Just below her vent, slightly to the right is a huge skinless area. She does not preen there and she had many tiny cecal worms (I believe) somewhere on her body. We gave her a bath and the worms came off. Anyways, I was wondering if it's safe to give her a antibiotic to fight the infection or to help with the pain or just ANYTHING to make her feel better! Thank you taking the time to read this!
