Hi,
One of the chickens in my flock is sick with the same thing almost every month. I thought it was Cocci, but now I am not sure... I give her and the others Corid, and it seems to cure it, unless she just gets over it. Her symtoms are :
she doesn't eat very much,
her tail is lower to the ground than normal,
she almost always has her eyes closed
she stays in the coop most of the time.
I did notice something different about this month though, she has a full crop and an almost completely black comb. I also realized that she gets this on cold days, and it goes away when it warms up a little. It could be frostbite, and I could see that because we just had a large snow storm here in Denver, so if you do think it is, how do you get rid of it and how do you prevent it from coming back? If you think it might be something else too, let me know!
Thank you!!!!!
