Snotty Sounding Roosters

I'm sorry I forgot to write this morning before work. But his breath does still smell bad.

Then treat for Sour Crop along with the Tylosin.

Thank you! Can you buy Tylosin at TSC? If not I can probably order some online. In the event they need the docusate sodium stuff what is the dosage for it?

You can order Tylosin online.

Docusate Sodium is used to treat an impacted crop. You'd give 1 soft gel once. https://www.backyardchickens.com/ar...w-to-know-which-one-youre-dealing-with.73607/

Thank you. We ordered the Tylosin last night. The rest of the stuff we'll get at Walmart for him. I think the crop might have an impaction since the last few days I've checked it it's been the same fullness and feels like there's food or something in it so I'll treat him for that.

I hope he improves, keep me posted.

His crop drained out naturally right before we were going to treat it earlier this week and he no longer smells bad. He's been pooping fine so everything must have passed through fine.

He's been getting the tylosin and the foam in his throat has decreased a little. Still sounds a little snotty.

I'm glad his crop is emptying.

The foam is still a concern though isn't it. I'd also start him on a probiotic to see if that makes a difference. It will also help restore the gut since he's on an antibiotic.

Ah okay, what's one you'd recommend. Also would yogurt work until we order one?

Yes, you can give him about 1Tablespoon of quality plain yogurt daily.

Sav-A-Chick has probiotics and there's also Probios - these 2 are the ones I have seen, but I'm sure there's many others.
