    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    The only avian vet near me (that’s worth anything) is 2 hours away, booked out several weeks and over 200$ just to schedule an appointment. It’s not that I don’t want to take her it’s just not a viable option in terms of time. And I got declined their credit card system. I wish I could take her...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    My nebulizer broke tonight, so going to do what I can to fix it or get another one. So no F10 tonight. Her respiratory symptoms are stable at the moment, now I have to focus on her weight/eating. I tube fed her a molasses flush this afternoon and it didn’t seem to do much. A few hours ago I...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    About to do my 3rd treatment of f10. It’s too soon to tell how effective it is, but she is no longer open mouth breathing. Still shaking her head and still stands a lot to breathe easier. Less drool too! This has given me more time to research and feel her for digestive issues, I believe now...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    Gave the first nebulizer treatment tonight :) She took it very well, well maybe mostly because she’s sick. Going to be doing another treatment at 4 am. And tomorrow I will be getting supplies for tube feeding. In terms of the assumed blockage, I feel like my only options are to wait it out or...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    I’m going to be treating with a nebulizer and f10 sc today. I was doing some more research and saw some threads on pasteurella. If she had avian cholera the tylan would have treated it right? There was no improvement and actually more symptoms appeared after starting tylan, so after 3 days I...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    She could have swallowed a staple from the fence. Maybe even a screw, but I’m really good about keeping up with keeping hardware out of the grass. I don’t fully suspect hardware disease but I’m not sure what else would cause her neurological issues other than a physical injury I’ve read about...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    Also here’s photos of her stool. In their brooder they are kept on towels/hospital blankets, under the blankets are these pee pads, and under that is a shower curtain to keep my floors from getting wet. The blankets edges and corners are secured under a play pen, so they typically can’t get to...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    All the symptoms she’s experiencing just seem strange to me. I don’t believe it’s only a respiratory issue, I do think there is also a digestive issue at play. My geese were hatched together and haven’t been apart since, and he (his names Noose) has only been experiencing respiratory. It’s night...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    I initially gave Baytril a month ago to treat minor respiratory issues. I treated for the 5 days then stopped, the symptoms seemed to improve but never fully went away (one goose had a watery eye consistently but that was the only symptom). My geese both still slept in my home in their brooder...

    HELP! Last chance trying to treat my sick goose.

    Forgive me for the scattered timeline, my brain is not thinking straight at the moment. My goose is 2 months old and 4 days ago starting showing symptoms. On the first day she isolated herself and was breathing through her mouth in the heat. I immediately brought her inside for monitoring. On...

    HELP! Goose with possible respiratory infection with strange symptoms

    Both of my geese have been on Tylosin for a little over 24 hours now and are already (slightly) improving, which was much faster than expected. I gave Baytril over a month ago but didn’t follow up with any probiotics, but definitely will this time. Her stool is still a little off but seems to...

    HELP! Single dosage of water soluble Tylosin (tylan) powder

    Currently treating my geese for a respiratory infection and purchased water soluble Tylosin. I’m wanting to give it in single dosages orally to make sure the medication is being taken adequately. The package says add 5g per gallon of drinking water, but nothing about single dosages. What...

    HELP! Goose with possible respiratory infection with strange symptoms

    One of my geese recently became pretty ill over the past few days. A month ago both of my geese had a respiratory infection and was treated with Baytril. The symptoms mostly cleared up and after the 5 days I stopped medicating them. 2 days ago I noticed my 2 month old goose (Gilly) was breathing...

    Giving enrofloxacin (Baytril) a second time?

    HELP! Medicating geese for respiratory illness
  15. Goose in the snake room

    Giving enrofloxacin (Baytril) a second time?

    I treated my geese a while ago for a respiratory infection with enrofloxacin, symptoms got a lot better but never fully cleared after the 5 days. They are still having mild symptoms and I’m unsure if I should give them the same antibiotic again now that some time has passed and it hasn’t cleared...
