Can high heat and humidity cause a floppy comb of 3 yr old hen?

Does humid hot weather cause floppy combs?

No this a different bird. The Baytril one is still alive. No lice/mites. Have you seen chicken poop like that before? Have given probiotics. Would I always be able to see worms in poop?

Hi, we have spoken a few times…I first treated her for vent gleet, and noticed her poop had was that yellow diarrhea, which did clear up. For me the dreaded yellow yolk looking poop, I just sighed thinking of EYP, but had hopes for no lash eggs. So a week has passed and I was concerned about...

Ty!!!!

Since the other seemly healthy hen in coop/run isn’t laying, I’m afraid she will be next 😞 Didn’t know if I could prevent bacteria ?!

Should I treat the other 3 hens in any way to prevent or try to lessen the chance of them developing EYP or Salpingitis? Out of the 5..( 3 are in coop, 2 sick are in garage) Only two are laying. I could care less about egg production. I believe they are Red Sex Linked hens. I wish I would of...

Thank you. I feel for them. The one on the left ( large crate) has been sick since end of September. I purchased 10% powder Enrofloxin. Do you know how to dose it to a singe bird? Or just use the mixed gallon dose and syringe it several times a day?

These two haven’t laid since the summer.

So essentially once you see a small piece of lash material pass…..it’s typically downhill from there for the chicken?

No new birds. Started with 6. 1 passed this summer, 2 are now quarantined and the other 3 seem fine. The black comes apart very easily with a paper towel so assuming it’s poop. And the yellow poop that’s in the pics happened when I was in there…so no slug.

Any advice? I don’t want the initial hen to keep suffering. She’s eating and drinking. I had to place her food and water higher up bc she struggles bending over to eat due to her stance. Good days and bad days for her. Im giving her Enrofloxin as well….am I just making it worse?
