Well, you were being good this mornin, but now it's a free for all!
Looks like what I had with some of mine; it went away by itself when I improved flock health.
Never did figure out what it was, so tell us if you do!

what do you do to improve health. This is a new group.

Thanks, Bubbles... you give the best smacks in town!!!!

Kind of what I was thinking. If this is the only symptom, it may not be anything serious. If it's an upper respiratory infection, there may or may not be other symptoms to follow. Even something a simple as dirty bedding (think ammonia buildup) can cause a runny nose. Without knowing what's causing it, it's best not to treat for anything. I'd look at environmental factors first, and keep an eye on bird to see if there's improvement of progression.

Seramas aren't supposed to breed true. Essentially you would getr a differant color chick every time. I only have 2 really unique color patterns. But, you never know how they are going to feather out

I got rid of my lice problem & checked for worms. It seemed only to effect my young birds.
