Hello everyone. So today noticed one hen had swollen face in one side and very wet eye, I immidiatily went to kill her. :/ RIP.
Now, I thought, could it just be a bee? Never had seen swollen faces, thought birds are immune from bee or other flie bites.
I had wheezing hens and sneezing, now few are culled in other place, and im feeding chicken starter to them.
Bubbly eyes are last, for be the biggest virus, when it happens im gonna cull a bird.
I have big flock of birds, chickens. Lot of ages in one place, 5 weeks old, 9 weeks, 13 weeks, I bought 11 cage layers before 2 months. This is not good, I know. Im doing all I can to make bird immunities as strong as I can.
+ I dont wanna risk, if there gonna be sick hen, from before bought, im gonna cull it.
I have growing chicks which incubate with broody hen, half of chicks I bought as 1-3 days old, and 1/4 died.
Had few little bit weak chicks and one with retarded growth, but it doesn peeping as a young baby, and are pretty alert..
Ya, but back to that swollen face. What should I do now? What is first sypmtoms of swollen face?
This one was pretty good brown layer..
