Mycoplasma?

Glad that they are doing much better. Since MG is a chronic disease, they may have outbreaks during times of severe stresss, such as during their molting or in severe cold weather. I realize that many do not want to use an antibiotic, but Tiamulin or Denagard can shorten symptoms, and also can be used as a preventative once a month. Hopefully, your flock will remain healthy.
 
Hi

Sorry, haven't been online in a while. I treated them with apple cider vinegar ( 1 teaspoon per litre) and garlic (1 pressed clove segment in their water) and within about three weeks they recovered. Three were really bad and i had to feed them myself three times a day as their eyes had swollen shut. Today they are all well and have regained their weight. Maintain their health with the garlic and apple cider vinegar but once they're healthy again, only do the apple cider vinegar one week in a month. Also, you need to disinfect all their food and water dishes, the coop and nesting area.

Hope it all works out.

Hi! Thanks for getting back to me!

I ended up doing something similar.
I'm glad your flock are feeling well and are back to their usual weight. :thumbsup
