Our 12 yr old rooster, Pooper had all the symptoms for Blackhead illness. He just completed metronidazole for the 5 days and today, started his 5 day treatment with fenbendazole. However, I believe he also has secondary infection.

I have 250 mg capsules of penicillin. I've searched and searched but haven't found anything definite yet on the dosage, how often and how many days to administer. It's unforgivable that we didn't catch it sooner, poor Pooper. I hope it's not too late. Maybe we're not doing the right thing. Your assistance will be much appreciated.
 
Sorry that I can't be of help in this instance. I have heard of chickens carrying BLackhead to turkeys but, never knew they could get the disease themselves. Now I learned something new from you. That's how BYC works best. People sharing information. I hope your rooster has the best possible outcome.
