watery white poo picture..3 year old polish Hen lethargic,droopy wings

Date sort Score sort
Well she had had a negative test, and had been treated with corid and wazine and there are no signs of worms in her poo. This morning she had a good size regular poo. Hey crop seems fine. She is weak, she falls over and losses her balance quite easily. This is such a mystery I'm glad I have other detectives out there trying to help.
Anyway I have 375 pill form clavamox from when my dog was sick, it had not expired.what is the best way and amount, she weighs two pounds.
 
Well mine have had negative tests when they've had blackhead, and someone I know also had one negative test, but three days later it was positive for capillary worms and coocidia, so a negative fecal is not something you should reply on, trust me... and if you don't want to trust me, call your vet and talk about false negatives. Add to that, the wormer you gave her will only treat roundworms, and that's only if she drank enough of the medicated water, so it is possible that she has worms. Only way to rule out worms is to use something like Safeguard for five days at 0.23ml per pound or Valbazen for one day at 0.08ml per pound.

The Clavamox dose I was told to use by a vet was 45 mg per pound of body weight twice a day for 7-10 days.

I can't find the wormers around here, it's so frustrating, I have the a zgold but I'm afraid to use it and don't know if it kills the same worms. I just got a call that I can get something called morning bird worm away, it will be in next week, how about this one?

Where do you live?

Any Tractor Supply should have Safeguard liquid for goats and Safeguard Paste for horses. Most all other feed stores will have Safeguard paste for horses. Get one of those.

Polish was acting lethargic, standing in one place with droopy wings. Took her in the house. history-prolapse and soft egg hatch. We thought she might be egg bound so gave warm bath for a couple days, felt all around inside, she felt fine, no temp, eating and drinking fine. Still eating and drinking but poops are liquid white/clear its been 5 days.She did have one dropping that had some green color to it. I have been giving her regular laying crumbles and a scrambled egg so she should have more material going through her. She is not straining. Any thoughts, I'm going out of town and hoping she is able to go back with flock outside. here is a pic of droppings. I put her on a towel and she stays right there, she could wonder all over but doesn't move.

Have you checked this against the "poop" site" I would do that before going the vet. Rest assured if they've got this now they will get it again or something else. It's foolish to run the vet every time your chickens drop a funny looking poop.

I suspect some here are vets or work for one and are trying to drive up business. Check the poop site first. If that doesn't satisfy you then go to the vet.

This site is very good. Now as for treatments. Take advice from folks here. Do not trust the folks in the store. Many are just clerks with no chickens experience at all.
