I have a chicken with a poopy butt that I assume is vent gleet as I have de-wormed with valbazen and treated with Corid (just in case) I have given her yogurt and put acv in water, given her baths and trimmed butt feathers and no change. Going on 2 months and I’m so frustrated that I can’t seem to get cleared up. She lays and to my knowledge is otherwise is non-symptomatic. I was reading through some other posts about treating with Nystatin, but as I don’t have and avian vet near me, I don’t have a prescription. I can buy the Medistatin powder without a prescription I believe, but I can’t seem to find dosage for a chicken, only pigeons. Anyone else tried Medistatin for vent gleet? A) Did it work? And B) what dose did you use for how long? Also - egg withdrawal period!? TIA
