Heart Failure in chickens

[Moonbeam Guineas]

I know this an old post. My guinea fowl Grounder was diagnosed with heart failure. X-rays and especially ultrasound confirmed. He is not like other guineas, so my vet and I decided to give medicine. He is on furosemide .3ml at 8-12 hrs a day. Enacard 2.5mg every 12 hrs and vetmedin 50mg every 12 hrs. Wanted to share as I see not much info on heart failure with our backyard besties.
