Ribh's D'Coopage

[BY Bob]

Me too. I'm not overly confident. They're not avian vets & their advice is sometimes a little shonky. They don't know all that much about chickens.

Do you know which lady it is? I would like to add her to our prayers.

Thanks, Bob. No need. After a long consultation it was decided to euthanise her. She had deteriorated a lot over night. The vet has taken a faecal sample & will get back to me on that. No~one else is showing any sort of symptoms but depending on the examination results I may need to treat both flocks for cocci. The monsoonal wet could be responsible despite me keeping the coop area as dry as possible. The vet wasn't sure though & the symptoms listed on~line weren't what I was seeing so it may not be that.

The good news, such as it is, is the vet says I had made all the right calls, including not travelling in the heat & I had done everything right to that point in the way I was treating her & looking after her. It doesn't make it easier but I do feel better about the outcome.

O No. I'm so sorry. They were both so beautiful. I hope you can help the rest before anyone else has a bad outcome.

Thanks, Bob. No~one else is showing sick @ all & I will have results & meds if I need them by Thursday so I am feeling fairly confident. While I was @ it I ordered an alternative wormer & now our weather is drying out again I can do a thorough clean of both coops.

I'm so sorry Ribh.
It's good to know that you did all the right things but it is cold comfort. Glad to hear that no-one else appears sick. Will you be alerting your supplier when you get the results on Thursday?

It depends on what the results are. It may have nothing to do with her.

I just received a patchwork quilt in the mail, (Sadly, there are no chickens on it)

That can be remedied.
