Just left vet with three of the hens. He’s thinking something GI (salmonella, ecoli, coccidiosis). 2 of the hens had smelly fluid coming from their beaks and I think it’s sour crop, he says maybe (smells like sour beer). Doing SMZ for about 3 weeks, also deworming them. Vet wants me to stop giving miconazole or acidified copper sulfate (Also said don’t do apple cider vinegar in the water right now) but I am kind of worried that the ones with the fluid coming out should be treated with something for that. Sigh. Hen that died is being sent off for necropsy and should hear something next week hopefullyLet us know what they say, hopefully they can tell more with the necropsy.
