Jasper has improved. Spinning bird has not spun since being put back in quarantine. I keep huffing chicken breath and I honestly do not smell anything.How is Jasper and the spinning bird today? When a bird you have treated has recovered, do any of those get sick again, or only the ones that haven't yet been sick and treated? Did you purchase all your flock members as day old chicks? I really hope the correct doxy-tyl dose prevents any more illness in your flock!
There are tests for both cholera and coryza. Coryza discharge usually has a very bad smell. If you smell a sick bird's beak you should know if the problem is coryza. For both of these diseases, sulfa drugs are more effective than other antibiotics.

Healthy chick is now sick. Sound on
Infectious laryngotracheitis is reported on a property within 5 miles of mine. What are the odds that's what I'm seeing? Not that I want this to be the cause
