Need a help!

My hen was lay an wrinkled egg, so I checked out what should I do, I got answer that give her some antiboatic, and I did give her about 4-5 days. She get better, I continue to give to her another couple of days, she start get sick and drop egg yolk, and diarrhea... I think it was my mistake. Anyway she is getting better, but still not right after 4 days in the house. she drop egg yolk again,she has soft egg shelf inside her and I pull it out today. I put some probiotics on her food, and in water too. I think the antiboatic make her have sour crop, and her crop inside layer already get thick. What should I give to her except probiotics?? I have picture of her poop. Thanks!

It sounds like she is experiencing a reproductive disorder that is making her ill. Has she or any other in hour flock ever had any respiratory disease that caused sneezing?

 

[xiaoyan]

No, my other are never have problem. She is the one that have egg shelf problem sometimes I beleive that because I gave her antibiotic causted her problem.

Antibiotics are sometimes given for a reproductive disorder. What one did you give? Reproductive infections and diseases are just very common in hens, especially over 2 years old.

 

[xiaoyan]

It is cephalexin for humans. I think I made an mistake.

Is there any treatment for Reproductive infections ?

Antibiotics may or may not help. A lot depends on what the problem is, such as salpingitis, and if the treatment is started early. Many times when symptoms start, such as when they lay a soft or shell-less egg or wrinkled shell, an antibiotic may not help. A vet could help you with the proper antibiotic. Baytril (enrofloxacin) is one that is banned in chickens, but is sometimes used to treat salpingitis. I doubt that the cephalexin hurt your chicken though.
