I know this is controversial.
Deslorelin (Suprelorin) is an implant used in ferrets to stop ovulation. It's been used in avian (including chickens) off label to do the same, which helps in various reproductive system related ailments. We have in the past lost a chicken due to egg yolk peritonitis (ruptured oviduct) and we have a chicken currently that is likely suffering from egg yolk peritonitis and would benefit from an implant. Unfortunately, many vets will not administer the implant (understandably) because this is not legal for use in chickens. This hasn't stopped people from being able to get these implants for their babies, however... So if someone has a vet that will do this somewhere near N Central Florida (I am in Gainesville) within a few hours driving distance, please send me a PM. We'd be very grateful.
