Also, if you could get some pictures of the birds and some of their poops, that may be helpful. It's been said that a lot can be gathered from a look at the birds poop.

Those that can help you will want to know the following: how old are your birds? What do you feed, including treats? How many have died? When did this begin? Describe symptoms. Is this an established flock? Have new birds been introduced lately? What do you use for bedding?

How much dosage? How often?

I would not give penicillin if you do not have a diagnosis. NatJ do you agree?

i believe it was .10cc per lb but i cannot remember how much it took for mine to get better it actually was byc I got the information from i wish i could find the thread again

Rather than guessing as to the cause and blindly treating I'd consider sending some birds for necropsy at the state lab, if you're in the US.

Pictures of them and their housing may help.
