maybe but i dont think so. I went out for a few min. should of stayed longer . the chickens are sneezing.  must be time for the denaguard again. really wish i would right that down and remember where i wrote it. seems like its not time yet. when i gave it last there were no symptoms , just want to stay on the right side of this.  trying to figure out how to separate some of them. there not crowded but i have 3-4 roos and i dont want to get off of any of them and i would like to know who daddy is before i hatch. I have them in the coop and half the run. I still have 10x20 run empty but it is dog kennel with tarp for cover from the wind, rain, snow. and no laying boxes. I have the creasted cream legbar roo, the swedish flower roo, for LF and I have the pheonix and a silkie for small. none of them are fighting except the silkie i have to himself. I have more roos but they are babies or one that is too old and no one messes with him. he stays to himself. the LF could handle the dog kennel the wind is blocked but i dont know what i would use for the eggs. or which rooster to put with them . Both? my brain is not working  I am still making things hard. maybe i should just open the pop door that divides the 2 and let them decide. 

Hey Granny Girl what is Denaguard? What do you treat with it. I have some hens sneezing & a rooster starting to cough. Not certain what it is & what I should be doing for them. It's very frustrating because my chickens are so spoiled, they have a great coop and it is cleaned everyday. Not certain why they would be getting sick. I did have some of the orginal chickens that I got from a man on Craigslist that had to be treated with an antibiotics after I got them. They were coughing & sneezing. Then in the spring I got some chicks from TSC that where sneezing & wheezing. I had to treat them with an antibiotic. Could this be the same stuff coming back? If anyone can help me on this question I would appreciate it.

the brown egg has hatched. it is just like the other three. its like they are half grown when they hatch. its butt was still in the shell and it was standing up. Oh, btw, I just learned of an all natural, very easy face lift from member Two Crows. if any one is interested send her a pm. she is awesome !

if its in the mg family then yes, it can come back because they remain carriers for life and any thing new you bring in will catch it. normally under stress, molt, ect.. denaguard is an antibiotic or a preventative. mine were suspected crd, chronic respiratory foamy eyes . so i give it once a month as a preventative.

It was suspected as CRD for mine as well. TSC personal suggested a antibiotic to use, just can't remember what it was called. Will Denegaurd treat the sneezing & cough or is it just for a preventative.Googling it says Denegaurd is a swine medication. What is the method of administering it & the correct dose.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

its for both. for treatment its 3 teaspoons in the water for 3-5 days. as a preventative one teaspoon for 3 days- per gallon of water. theres not supposed to be any egg withdrawal period. it is bitter and has to be their only source of water. I added molasses as well it has done a good job so far of keeping the illness at bay. last month when i dosed them we got tons of rain and they didnt get their full dose. so this time right after i gave it the rains came again. LOL it is dry in there though today.

What is the difference between tolbunt and candy corn?

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Its a pattern type thing i believe Enola . colors are there but more in a barred pattern for candycorn and splashed for tolbunt . I was sold candycorn for tolbunt because breeder didnt know . I didnt care except price for candy is less.
