Think my hens are sick from their water...

[Jolyn]

I went away for two weeks and my hubby took care of my girls. He once again forgot to make sure the water didn't get that pink mold in it......now my girls seem sick.....

What can i do to reverse the affects of this?????

This same darn thing happened five years ago and i lost a few of my birds.

Anyone use essential oils on their hens????

Thanks for any info,
Jodie

What are their symptoms? Aspergillosis is a disease caused by mold in the environment. There is no treatment, but to remove the mold from the environment. I would clean and bleach out the waterers and feeders, and make sure that the litter is clean and dry. Aspergillosis can be a problem with wet bedding. Here is some info about it:
