grannys gone and done it

You need industrial grade heavy duty extension cords. DO NOT use your house extension cords. You can order lower wattage heat lights online.

Sylvania 175 watt heat bulb. There are also 125 watt and 100 watt bulbs available online too.

I used the appliance extension cord. its pretty heavy duty. thanks for the info

What did you use for worming?

Wazine

 

[enola]

Just so you know, Wazine only treats round worms. Chickens get several worms other than roundworms.

oh no ! he is so beautiful !! Slam him with everything. antibiotic, scrambled eggs, what ever you can think of as long as you dont OD him. put him to himself. he will be bored and eat more.

Nice looking bird. Hope he pulls through. I agree with advice from granny (isolate, egg, vitamins, probiotics) and from enola. If he has other than roundworms, you need a second course with a different wormer.

Valbazen will kill all types of worms, but I think it is hard to get except online. People use SafeGuard goat wormer, which doesn't get tape worms, though. Not sure about Ivermectin. Wait for enola.

He is by himself, with a small light. I have him on Tetracycline currently. I gave him a injection of Tylan 50 on Sat. But was not able to give it to him in his breast meat cuz he was so thin couldn't feel any. Gave it to him in his leg but I know that can cause problems so didn't try to give it again. Have been pushing the scrambled eggs & tuna, but he doesn't want to eat those. He will eat some All Flock Raiser with some of his medicated water on it so that is what I've been giving him.

Safeguard liquid wormer for goats. You will find it at tractor supply. Is he eating or drinking?

I wouldn't randomly start throwing antibiotics at him. If he is as ill as you are stating a bunch of antibiotics could very well kill him.
