What items should be stocked in an isolation/sick room? Right now all of our flock are healthy birds but we would like to be prepared if someone were to become injured or ill. I'm imagining we would need a small cage,antibiotics of some sort? I'm sure there's so much more we would need. Any input would be greatly appriciated.
 
I have a medium-sized dog crate (wire) with a cloth cover and metal pan;
can use at house or in barn feed room which is constructed so barn cats can't access;
ceramic heater
water source
magnifying glass
clean rags
cotton balls
needle/thread
rubbing alcohol
tincture of iodine
electrolytes on hand, also vitamins
apple cider vinegar
olive oil
sugar
electrolytes with antibiotics, would only use in certain circumstances
q-tips
eye droppers
latex gloves
blue lotion
molasses
