In the Brooder
One of my 5 YO Marans recently had a respiratory illness. It started about two weeks ago. I separated her from flock and treated her with injectable Oxytetracycline for 5 days. She responded well and the respiratory problem is gone. She is eating and drinking along with a normal looking poop. She seems to get more tired than normal and her comb is pink rather than her normal bright red. Each day she looks a bit better. No other birds have come down with illness so far.
My question: How long should I keep her separated from the flock? Do you believe she is still possibly contagious? I do not know exactly what the illness was. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated!
