my group did okay for a while after the bout of the RX "Sulfadimethoxine" they took a while back
2 and 3 yr old Barr Rockers here.... free ranging 1/2 acre and rest of afternoon all over...
feed Natures Best organic layer or Starter Crumbles

Now slowly getting loose poop. then over a week ago saw blood in two dif poop spots
so started back on that "Sulfadimethoxine" . cause doesnt that treat for cociddosis?
now all of them have watery poop GREEN POOP what there is of the SQUIRTS with yellow slime or Urates.... Now Roo is sick too hes by himself down int he chicken "solarium"
I found some slight mold in the bottom of empty platic milk cartons, Hubby was mixing their occ "egg Booster" supplement or occc ACV mixture...
I said to him get rid of those containers...now Please later I noticed some agai in newer milk jugs. So I smashed them all
we can watr for them during rain and boil it after several dys too.
so for FIVE days gave them the RX . also that **** TSC didnt have any newer bags of Layer feed so got the Grower again. cause got a Roo and half of my layers dont "lay"
Plus Goldie chokes so much in that **** powedery" Crumbles...."
TCS wont get any newer BAGS, in cause I am about the only one buying it. Everyone else buys the cheap JUNK "Dumor"GMO crap.Heck looks like none of the feed is "fresh" to me well not in chicken stuff that I can see.


so I assume they all have bacterial infections? right with the green water squirty poo and the yellow slimy urates/ They all laying around lots too.
so dont know if its from the little mold in the old milk crtons, someone coming on to property with sick Goats(gave away free item).. also sold stuff recently to people with a flock that came here. or they picked up from the ground ...


who know I am so FRUSTRATED problems never end. No gives a **** about chickens vet around
Hubby is sick of all..
But love my group and dont want them to suffer
so I looked at old posts again and asked Hubby to give them 1/4 tsp of that ACIFIED COPPER powder I had on hand starting this morning....

Cause "TwO crows" likes using it.. and scared they are too sick to worm too...

I'm so sorry you are having trouble. I know you have been having a very hard time and you are frustrated, but you are doing the best you can.

If you are seeing blood in the poop, you may want to consider giving Corid instead of the Sulfadimethoxine, simply because Corid treats more strains of Cocci. The Corid water would need to be the only source of water available, so you may need to keep them penned if they have access to other water sources.

Green poop can be an indication of bacterial infection or not enough nutrition. Some chickens have problems absorbing nutrients, but since you have more than one with similar symptoms, bacterial infection could be the cause. I know you have struggled with vets, but having a poop sample tested would be in order to know what you are dealing with and getting the proper medication.

Acidified copper sulfate may be helpful, but this water mixture would also need to be administered as the sole source of water as well. So penning them would be in order if you have other water sources available.

Keep us posted.

as your chickens free range why don't you feed them whole grains: corn, wheat, oats, barly... I had the same problem with GMO non-fresh commercial feed and my birds have been healthier since I started to feed them whole grains. they bomb me with the eggs and I give them a few boiled eggs 2-3 times a week.

copper sulphate might help.
 
HUBBY did the Acified copper sulphate and WOW it helped like 5 days....
BUT YALL KNOW what is strange? ROO ROO was barely moving around couple last week. with bd infection looking POO... But dang if he did jump out of the people door and jump LIL SIS bones... Go figure????? I had opened the people door to see if she wanted to go in that way. since it was almost ROOST time.... and ROO charges out and jump on her... I keep telling him now to "GO hump a fence pole" and "Run Girls he's trying to TRICK YALL." LOL
Roo was acting poorly for two or three days. still crowing though....
I tried the whole "grasses" people grade even MIXTURE. even added an organic "additive"... They picked and chose favorite stuff out and left the flax seed till last...
I did oat groats, split peas yellow and green. lentils, amaranth, quinoa, Buckwheat, alfala, lil kelp, millet. Mostly glute free stuff
I dont do corn anymore cause READ its just a starch. But unfortunately it the main ingredient in their Organic FEED >>> RAH>>>>>>>
I think Pinkie Lee might have been done in by eating the leftovers, the flax seed....Plus they left the "sandy" additive. even fermented..
I made sure my whole mixture was less than 10% FLAX too....
I read too much flax is bad for the girls...liver ,I believe
was getting too many soft eggs and no shells messes
so how do you do it? they must have acess to some source of meat? otherthen bugs and worms. Cause mine are constantly eating grass, weeds, flower buds, scratching for bug and worms....

.what other uses can I do with it? since I bought two bags of it? and the dosage is supposedly 1/4 tsp per GALLON of water...
I tried doing a search on my search engine. and it all points to POULTRY uses...
Just a saying.
PS I see others on here are a mixing and fermenting their own... They must have something different than this "grounds", this LAND etc have...
