The nutri-drench really seems to help make her less lethargic. She still won’t eat her normal pellets but she’s eating cracked corn at least.Give her one or two drops of nutri drench a day orally for no more than 7 days. Try giving her some plain boiled white rice mixed with buttermilk or cottage cheese and see if she'll eat it. What does her poop look like?
Her poop looks normal. When she does poop it seems to be a smaller amount than usual- but I’m assuming that’s because of her bouts of lethargy/lack of appetite related to the breathing issues.
The Oxine came in the mail today so I mixed 1/8 teaspoon to 1 gallon water, put some of the solution in a spray bottle and spritz it (with the fine mist setting) over her head and around the coop. Tomorrow morning I’ll repeat. Because of my work schedule I can only repeat 2 times a day (morning/evening) but on the weekends I can go 3x per day. Is that okay? Will I need to treat longer than 10 days to make up for the days that I only treat 2x?
Also, just to confirm (because 1/8 teaspoon seems like such a tiny, ineffective amount especially when diluted in a gallon of water), it IS 1/8 tsp that you meant right?
Thank you again! You’re a life saver (literally!)
