If it's Bacillus cereus then wouldn't the effects be more from the toxins it produces and less from the actual bacterial strains? Granted, I only know the human food poisoning guidelines, which is essentially fluids and electrolytes to combat diarrhea... would antibiotics work in this case?
Some seem to be bouncing back while others just started sneezing/coughing today! I have an older bird who has surprised me every day by remaining alive. I don’t know if that’s related or not. It’s been the last 5-7 days. She just stands still with her eyes closed and tail down. Not crop, poop is fine. I see her drink and maybe eat but when given the chance to roam she just stands in the middle of the yard.
The diarrhea was noted this morning from the few birds that first showed symptoms. It’s pretty bad… electrolytes is a great recommendation. Would you think something like Save A Chick or Rooster Booster? A friend suggested Keifer for the probiotic properties.
Is this the exact product you’d recommend? Is their egg withdrawal? I was looking at AmoxTy but assumed because of the amoxicillin there would be withdrawal. I’ve read the Tylosin has no withdrawal time but not sure if it’s helpful in this case. I’ll need to get it ordered and hope for quick arrival. Thanks for your help!
Did yours spread in the flock? Mine is spreading quickly.
It did not. I hope yours isn't worse than what mine had.
