Which bacteria was that and what date was it done?

It's possible that this pus is from a tumor.

How would a tumor cause "pus"? Wouldn't a tumor only weaken her immune system leaving her open to other health problems? She is only 3 yrs old. Not from a hatchery.

 

[casportpony]

Or is that a copy of the one I posted?

Sorry - I didn't mean to confuse you. I was just copying off your tests. I can send you the antibiotic susceptibility from the test she had done.

I'm not sure, but I went through this with one of mine. He had pus in the same spot as your hen. I removed it, but it kept coming back until one day it obstructed his glottis and he died. After he died I did a necropsy and found under the pus was a large tumor.

Can you post it here?

I will look for the test.

Oh, and you say you gave 0.2 ml of gentamycin, but you didn't say which gentamycin it was.

I am so sorry you lost your rooster. This hen is not my only chicken with bacteria growth. I have had ongoing issues. I suppose that should lower the chance that it is a tumor. I suspect she might be contagious, so she is isolated.

I didn't know there were different types. Do you want to know the strength? It is an injectable.
