Hi. Please give me your wisdom. We lost one of our 3 year old RIR yesterday. She appeared healthy prior to her death and after she died, I did not palpate any masses in her abdomen or crop.
Now, one of her flockmates has a VERY swollen "abdomen" just under her vent. her stools are loose and slightly mucusy. the rest of the flock seems well. I started the treatment this morning for cocciodis just in case. background: we have run into problems in the last several weeks with them laying far fewer eggs but we thought that their moulting had something to do with it. Thanks
