Looking like that, and especially If you had it before and it cleared up with antibiotics, and now it has reoccurred I would say coryza.
If so all your flock will be infected/carriers even with antibiotics.
I would send a dead bird for lab testing to check and get a definite diagnosis so you can plan what to do.

They have flow pox. As I can see now. The birds that were sick before are not now. But it's spreading from one coop to the other

HAPPY NEW YEAR, everyone.

Not a good start to the year

Mozza collapsed.

It looks like she has toxic shock syndrome caused by a bug during her AI procedure.

We have antibiotics but the boys dont think she will survive.

Poor Vincent has been training her and has really bonded with her. He is sitting in the field with her even now at midnight and wont leave her.

Send good vibes her way

Gosh, I'm so sorry! TSS can get very serious very quickly.

How long do you think she has had it?
What do you think went wrong in the procedure? Was it just bad luck?
