You need not to "guesstimate" dosage but follow the dosage instructions

When I added it to their drinking water, I put the exact amount that it said on the instructions.

It sounds like you are overextended, like you don't really have time for chickens

My vet was out here last week and I asked him about it and he had no idea. My computer had a virus and I wasn't able to research the information and then we were out of town. We came back home and all was well, the next morning, which was YESTERDAY morning, I noticed the hen was sick and that is when I immediatly started treating everyone.​

Can you have a fecal analysis done? Around here vets who don't really treat chickens will take a look at the poop under the microscope for a minimal charge. Otherwise, I would guess there's no real way to know what the problem is if you don't actually see anything specific in the droppings.

Yeah, you know, I thought about that after he left. I am going to finish teating them and then see how things go.
