My frozen chicken help..

[Kiki]

You think I’ll lose her? Will the Tylonsin help her? No new bird have been brought into the flock ever. So I shouldn’t keep them together with her in a small coop..? You said the chances she’d live are good without treatment...?

You have Tylosin on hand? Which exact product do you have?

 

[FernbergFarms]

I do not have it on hand but can probably order it. I do have some bacitracin ointment and triple anti biotic ointment and I have this which idk if it would help....? But she’s not bleeding . On the container it says it’s basically anti biotic/bacteria stuff

NO NO, That's STYPTIC, It CLOTS BLOOD. It's not an antibiotic. I'm a NURSE with 25 yrs experience. TYLOSIN is an antibiotic that can be used for Respiratory diseases in Chickens.

 

[twendt]

The dose is 2000mg or 2 Gm per gallon of water, you need TYLOSIN soluble, 3-5 days in their water.

Okay I will try to order that right away and/or Bring her to the vet. Do you think she will die from this?

To me in the last 2 pics of post one it looks like her beak is damaged.

Is it just my old eyes or is her beak split, cracked, damaged in some way?

If you read the article about coryza, it says that up to 20% of chickens can die from coryza. Please read all of the articles that have been provided about the respirayory diseases. Does she have any wounds on the left side of her face, or is that all drainage and dirt? I would see a vet in the morning, so that you can either put her down or get the right antibiotics. It would take several days to get antibiotics in the mail. Keep her separated from the others.

She could, it's pretty serious. If you have the access and means to take her to a vet, please do so. I personally use a vet when I feel it's DIRE or out of my hands. My chickens are "Pets" so I'm attached, they all have names....

That would be good to check out. I was just looking back as well, and it almost looks like wounds. It would be good to clean her face well and take more pictures. If she smells bad, that might be a reason.

My chickens are pets too, well I get them for eggs but I’m attached to all of them and mine have names too so I’m not looking to put her down unless it’s really necessary. Her beak is very dirty in the picture and when she breaths she has like spit attached to both the top and bottom. I read the MG article but not the Croyza one yet. I really want to go to a vet if it is the last option...
