PLEASE HELP!! Very worried about sneezing/gaping chickies.

[akatrielle]

The oral antibiotic seems to have this thing on the run, finally. She's much more alert and is eating and drinking on her own (a normal amount, not just little pecks - poops are big and look regular). She still has parts of the day where she's lethargic and sickly (or she did yesterday), but she is more and more active. I'm not deluding myself - I know we could still lose her to this, but this morning she seems much improved. She is interacting with the mirror we put in for her, which seems to be a comfort.

I haven't noticed gaping or sneezing much in the other girls since the duramycin went into their water, but it's all really too early to tell.

If Delilah gets worse again, or starts doing the delusional pecking again, I'll take her in for a blood and stool sample. Thank you!

very glad to hear the improvement!

Thank you. So far, so good. NOW I just have to deal with Cordelia, my 5 week old EE/Ameraucana who just ate a giant strip of cardboard paper. Hopefully it'll just pass through.

did you do the wet mash probiotics with vit's that I always try and get folks to deal with the chickens nerves?

maybe do this for all the birds at once
I would start with the Vit E and Vit B complex with wet mash

put the Vit's in tis wet mash for all the chickens

A) chickens do get some upset in the gut with E.coli and then it goes toa nervous disorder
natural probiotic wet mash with Vit E and Vit B complex, as well as Vit C added immediately
basically the chicken has some nerve damage from the E.coli and the respiratory disease do this immediately
need neurolodigal vit E and Vit B complex for E.coli and the nervous disorder

(1)
Also the apple cider vineager in water
2 tbsp per gallon of water till chickens are well and then 2 times a week for life
for one chicken use 1 tbsp of ACV
1 pint of water

(2 immediately give the chicken 1000 mg capsule of liquid Vit E by cutting the end of the capsule and taking the vit E liquid and mix in wet mash probiotic .Vit B complex crushed and put in wet mash, Vit C crushed and put in wet mash

(2-B) total amt of capsules equals the total amt of chickens fed vit's multiply amt of recipe times amt of chickens fed it and the amt of vit's times amt of chickens given them

(3 also need to crush a vit B complex pill in tabsp then
put it in the chickens wet mash after it is disolved, also Vit C

(3-C) then give this to the chickens twice a week for two weeks should see much improvement

(4 Do all three Vit's twice today then for 7 days till you see some improvement in the chicken

(5 today I would see if the chicken will eat a wet mash with the Vitamins E and B complex and Vit C
JUST MAKE 1/2 OF THE WET MASH GIVEN HERE FIRST TIME WITH THE VIT'S

(-B) THIS IS FOR ONE CHICKEN
natural probiotic wet mash
2 tbp of dry crumbles
3 tbp of milk sweet, sour or buttermilk
1 tbsp of non flavored yogurt
2 tbsp of apple sauce
put it on top so the chicken can smell and see it
mix good and put the
vit E liquid as directed in the wet mash
and crumble the Vit B complex tablet in a tabsp and crush the Vit C add to the wet mash
each chicken should get 3 tbsp of the wet mash with vit's
**BESURE AND MIX VIT'S VERY GOOD IN WET MASH***

(6 Do this twice a day for 7 days to see if the chickens are better
then do this once a day for another week then once a week for a while
this should give the nervous system some stability and cure the bad E.coli in the gut also the respiratory disease should be better

(6-A) they should clean it up in 20-30 minutes

(7 you can email by PM for more information and include this info so I remember what
also if you go to the top of your PC you will see the first line and that is the URL for your post
just copy it and email it back to me so I can read it for a update

e,ail me any questions
