That was a few months ago- we have not rechecked. But they were checking coccidia. Maybe we should recheck with the sick ones now that we’ve separated them.
Is there anything else it could be?
Just went out and looked at three chickens very closely and no mites anywhere- I think this is intestinal worms. If the last two dewormers helped but not 100% what would you suggest? Another round (3rd) or different type? Thank you so much @azygous !! Also how can I do a flush on the ones that...
Hey! So the second dewormer I think** helped; but we also did Corid AND sprayed permethrin 10 to rule out the itching as well as a few had yellow diarrhea.
Hey @azygous ! So the second dewormer I think** helped; but we also did Corid AND sprayed permethrin 10 to rule out the itching as well as a few had yellow diarrhea so treated with Corid. We are desperate at this point after 6 months of no eggs!
Tonight we separated those out to watch closer...
Thanks! They aren’t laying and yes more lethargic. Just gave worms too for nutrition…starting to see yellowish soft stools like coccidia. Should I treat with corid? Or wait to stool test. This is so annoying 🤪
Thanks @Wyorp Rock ! I haven’t done granite before. I’ll try that! They’re definitely sick- extremely light weight; vet said 2-3 pounds and they’re usually 6-9. We have layers feed purina and have used TSC brand before; they love to forage (free range) and we give scraps.
Just finished the 5...
@Wyorp Rock thanks sooo much for taking the time to respond! All helpful!
This is the respiratory meds she prescribed- did 5 total doses and didn’t help at all. We would hear random sneezing but that’s it. I think it might just be one? Really random though not often.
They looked at the stool...
How are your chickens? Mine are all wasting away too, but no mites or lice. Very anemic and all 6 months or older, with the youngest looking the healthiest. Can’t figure out what’s going on and don’t see any worms in stool. Did just treat for worms today…it’s been 6 months on and off!
@azygous we checked tonight and looks like no mites? Help please! They’re all looking so pale, bad dandruff from malnourishment, and getting worse. Only thing I can think is worms we can’t see in stool? What’s a reproductive disease? Thank you!! These are our babies 💔
Thanks! Not molting the vet said they have fevers (everyone has feathers on). And no hidden nest but we have had that before! Actually fences everyone in recently to treat and no one is laying- moved locations to hopefully help with mites. Something is making them all itch a ton even during the...
