If your adult hens seem fine and none of the chicks have been in with them, I wouldn't bother treating them. For any information on treatment, dosage and directions, cautions etc, will be on the back of the bottles. Good luck and please keep us (or me) posted!
Unfortunately, all 40 of my chickens are together, chicks and mature hens alike, so....now what?
I looked around my chicken area (although it's very large and impossible to look everywhere) and I didn't see anymore red in any poop. Not even the 2 little chicks. It seems like it comes and goes.
I looked at Sulmet at the feed store today and I found a packet for swine and a bottle for cattle. Both were very expensive although the packet for swine was smaller and thus cheaper so I would prefer to go that route. Is this the stuff?
Is this contagious to other animals--dogs, cats, kids/people??
This is really discouraging...
