Thank you. I did just give her and the others Corid in their water as my husband (a beef farmer) thinks they have Coccidiosis. We divided it down to 1/4 oz. per 1 1/2 gallon water, change daily for 5 days. We'll see if that helps. Meantime I could also worm them. Probably would do best to get...
Same food as always, some layer pellets and some mash from our local feedstore that mixes their own feed. I have another separate group of hens that are fed the same and none of them have the poopy butts. They look great and very healthy. No treats recently. I'll check her crop. Not sure if she...
For a couple of days my 3 year old flock of white leghorn hens have had a bit of poop sticking to them. I assumed maybe worms and was going to get wormer today. This afternoon when I went to check on them 1 girl was sitting under their outdoor (penned) roost looking listless. I moved her to my...

I got my birds April 9, April 15 and April 29. (120 total). It has been so unseasonably cold here that they only went out on pasture recently. They seem to be small for their age and I am...

Except for sneezing and bit of wheezing they seem fine, eating very well, drinking. Think maybe just a cold that needs to run it’s course? Am I maybe over reacting? I’m also a little confused by the 930 ml of water, that’s a really small amount of water. Do I then add it to make a gallon and...
I have 2 batches of chicks with sneezing, wheezing symptoms. Came vaccinated and fed medicated feed. My best guess upper respiratory infection. Been cold and wet here. Got oxytetracycline calf scour boluses as can’t get any other antibiotics w/out vet visit. Read here to dose at 800 mg/gallon...
