A friend of mine gave me some hens recently. I dont know the type. But three out of four got sick.
One hen was slow and didnt eat and had fever I isolated her and she died within a day.
I had to kill one more.
The third hen didnt seem much sick but was slow so i also isolated her. It is the third day now. Yesterday i injected some water and powder rice/wheat/millet mixture into her mouth, She was sneezing and had to breath with her beak open and
I also noticed little mucus in the beak. She was standing and walking so I believed she would recover soon.
But today I saw that she was barely breathing and had collapsed.
I do not have access to any vet in my city, so I gave it amoxicillin (augmentin) about 200 mg(half tablet) per day. and Terramycin capsule to the other one.
