Hello! My rooster was sick about 8 days ago. I do believe he has a history of Coryza. He had a runny nose with thick smelling drainage along with weakness and unbalanced. He is still walking, but wobbly.
He completed 5 oral doses of Liquamycin, the drainage stopped after first or second dose. Unsteadiness has continued. I’ve also been giving him nutradrench directly in the mouth. I looked at his ears when the unsteadiness first started, thinking it could be an ear infection, they were clear. And earlobes looked fine then. Ears are still clear today, but now his earlobes are hardened and almost looks like rug burn on them. Also I’ve noticed these spots on the back of his neck. He’s eating and drinking fine, pooping fine, still crowing and trying to carry on with his daily activities, in the garage. I separated him as soon as I seen the runny nose. Everything seems to be normal besides his unsteadiness and this earlobe and skin issue.
Do you think this could be an allergic reaction or something more serious? Is he scratching?
I’m at a loss, have found nothing online.
