Do you know what strand of mycoplasma she may be having? Her limbs are fine, she can walk proper just didn’t because she’s lethargic? BTW there’s no vet in my area that can take care of poultry, getting antibiotics is very difficult. Also with her eye, there’s nothing wrong with it. no...

The amoxicillin is 500mg, I only started treatment yesterday. I’ll give her some yogurt too :) my flock have flubenvet layers pellets which include dewormer in it but I also just give regular layers pellets

Hello everyone, one of my previous posts had to do with the same hen who is having problems now. A little context, she hasn’t laid since 2nd April which is unusual since she lays 4 times a week. She is a Hyline hen (egg production breed) and is almost 2 years old. I’m contemplating on what’s...

She’s like this

She’s silver/grey. Are EE typically sex linked?

Hello everyone, will a welsummer roo x araucana hen create a sex linked or auto sexing chick? I don’t really understand the concept about how to create a sex linked chick. if it is how would I be able to distinguish the males from females? Would the chicks be EE or olive Eggers?

She stopped laying 5-6 days ago (2 days before she got noticeably sick) we last dewormed our flock for roundworms and cocci, treatment lasted 6-7 days.

Nope, she’s always laid good eggs with proper shells. I checked her vent and there’s no mass or inflammation. What indicates that it may be a reproductive infection?

No antibiotics, I only have panadol (paracetamol) it’s a mild human pain killer medicine but I don’t know if it’ll help.

I’d advise giving her vitamin supplements like vitamin D and B. Offer her extra grit separately. have you noticed her struggling to breathe? Is there a bullying issue? I’d also suggest checking her legs for any injuries or if there’s something stuck in between her toes. It happened to my hen...

Hello! Thank you for your reply. I know that her breed usually dosen’t live long as their production breeds but she’s not 2 yet, she was perfectly fine 4 days ago but then started being away from the flock etc… she’s gotten a bit better, not sleeping inside her wing as often, walking and moving...

Thank you for your reply! She’s been acting strangely for the past 2-3 days; not eating (having to get force fed),lost weight, not firm poops and it smells a lot, hasn’t laid in a week, lethargy and sleeping with her head in her wing. I don’t suspect she has any other forms of mareks only the...

Do you know how long it takes for a chicken with ocular marek symptoms to be properly diagnosed with it since it’s apparent? I know it happens over time but how long is that? A few months? I’m really worried as it’s not a perfect circle but other than that her eyesight seems fine.

Hello, can you take a look at my most recent thread? It’s to do with suspected ocular mareks. Please help!!

Hello! Can you please take a look at my recent thread? Is it normal for a chickens eye to not be a perfect circle? And how long does a chickens eye with ocular mareks take to become obvious? One of my hens dosent have a perfect pupil in one eye. It isn’t discolored, pupil expands according to...

Can you take a look at my thread? Thanks!

Hello! I was wondering if this is ocular mareks. I know it’s more uncommon but maybe I’m being paranoid because my hen is sick and she’s showing some signs of mareks disease like lethargy,runny poop,not eating etc… her pupil looks like it isn’t a perfect circle? I was wondering if it’s normal...

no vets nearby that accommodate poultry. Even if there was they’d charge £90 just for examination. Not something I’m willing to pay. Good news tho, she’s improved a bit!

thank you! And yes, I’m in the UK and it’s been cold and windy along with rain. Could that cause problems for chickens? If so how can I help?
