Do vets have the cones that they put around a dogs neck to keep him from bothering a wound?? I think I remember seeing someone's chicken on this site wearing one. Then he couldn't peck his stitches out.

One of my hen feather near the vent have poop all over. I am expect internal parasites. What is the best medication should I use? She has been laying egg for few months. Is it safe to eat her egg before and after treatment? And for how long?

I would start with Wazine 17 and the withdrawal time for eggs is 10 days to 2 weeks.

Ten 2 weeks after the Wazine I then follow up with Eprinex pour on for beef and dairy cattle. Eprinex has no withdrawal time for the eggs. 3 cc per gallon of water I did this for 2 days but it says you can just use the one day dose and make sure that with both wormers that that is the only source of water they have for that day of treatment.

good luck

I think "Evian" is a nice froufrou name and if you use a Spanishy pronunciation it's a play on "Avian"

YAY! Peanut got his stitches out today and he is now fully recovered and back in the coop!

I've never seen a chicken get so excited before!!

WOW, that is GREAT news! I bet you will miss the crowing in the house....

Glad Peanut is back with his ladies!

HA! Its so quiet in here I don't know what to do with myself! Peanut was actually crowing so much that he started losing his voice! lol! Sounded pretty funny hehe

The first thing he did after being put in the coop was to do a happy dance and then proceed to remind all the hens that he's still the boss
