***OKIES in the BYC III ***

VERY much praying for Christina! Man, I hope all goes well and they get out all they need to and here's hoping for a benign biopsy.
Christina, recover quickly. We want to hear from you as soon as you can get on that Nook and let us know how you are.

I lost 4 young birds today and another is sick! I cleaned pens yesterday and they all were fine. They have never been on the ground, never outside at all. The dead one had very bloody stools. I put Selmet in their water. I don't know if it is Cocid or even if they are too young for the Selmet.
We have 3 more sick birds today & lost one (it was a roo that harassed ladies all day). Fat Louie is one of the new sick birds. If anything happens to fat Louie while I am at the hospital Taron will be a wreck.

Mine surely isn’t a Polish hen. Not near enough of a hat. I know that wasn't a very good picture of my hen, but other than the extra facial feathers, she looks a lot like yours in person. Thanks for the pictures. Same body style and leg color. Could she be a bearded Spitz?
So sorry about your young roo. I hope your older one is ok. BTW, That is a beautiful Canary.

I'm confused as to why they'd use Baytril for coccidia. It's an awesome antibiotic for infections and respiratory stuff, but coccidia is a protozoa parasite. I don't think Baytril would touch that.
Edit: I'm reading right now about them using Baytril for it. Interesting and definitely worth looking into. Baytril is hard to find online but I do know Pigeon websites commonly carry it for sale.

Maybe cleaning the brooders with the garage door open on a cold day and moving them to new brooders was enough to stress them? I only have two left and they don't look so good.
