I have approx 10 month old Hen who has been showing signs of a respiratory illness such as Corza or MG. I am afraid its MG and this is why.... It is now Day 6 of on set of symptoms, One Goopy eye with some bubbles. No Other symptoms. I have started with Terramycin eye ointment 3x daily. I have ordered the following - please note i am in California and it is essentially illegal and impossible antibiotics for animals with out a prescription and there are no avian vets near me. I have ordered Denagard for entire flock as well a her, Vet RX, Fish antibitoics - ( Doxycyline) and Calf Scour Bolus (Oxytetracycline). this all i could find as far as antibiotics that can treat either diseases. She has not shown ANY other symptoms other than her eye. If MG or Corza, when does one make the decision to just cull entire flock? To top it all off, i have a hen on a nest incubating eggs, she is on day 12. Do i make the decision and toss her eggs before its to late and i introduce these new chicks to this enviroment and with no way of getting rid of these new chicks that have been possibly exposed to MG or Corza? Do i even bother trying to get this hen with symptoms back to health or should I cull and send off for a necropsy?
