Ok I figured the infection was chronic. Was hoping she'd not become infected again. I don't worry if she lays eggs. Just wanted to see her happy living her best. Since she doesn't lay eggs we can use whatever can help.
Yeah we didn't have her liver checked with the vet, but vet suspects liver...
Bingo is 1 yr.
First got sick in March. Coccidia, cappilaria, blackhead, lash egg.
Vet gave us Albon. It didn't really nail the issue.
I moved onto a round of Baytril, no more lash egg since.
We got high # of coccidia again in sample, tiamulin took that out (takes out blackhead too apparently)...
So I'm stumped and wondering if anyone has seen anything like this and the cause? Should I be concerned?
I did fecals 3 weeks ago. Only treated coccidia.
Food yesterday (Feed, blueberries, romaine, watermelon. I did spray everyone's bums with elector psp last night.)
Not seeing any new...
Yes and I got to thinking for treatment of them sick individual dosing.
For preventative in water.
Did I do this correctly? I weighed one of my 12 week olds, 2.8lb. Pic attached
I keep second guessing bc some of the studies used miniscule amounts with success. Pic attached
Toltrazuril shop sells diclazuril and I'd like to give it a try. But I'm uncertain the dosages.
We have recurring coccidia with amprolium resistance, thinking Albon is not helping either. I am doing fecal floats monthly and treating accordingly. We have high levels unless I do the treatment...
Figured I'd update because I always like to find resolution in searches.
I ended up doing 5 days of tiamulin last month. Followed by another fecal 2 weeks after that was done. Cappilaria present again so treated that. (Did the fecal bc she wasn't quite herself and had some yellow droppings)...
I did 5 days of enrofloxacin. Finished 4 days ago.
Now this watery green poop. (See pic). 3 days ago she looked a bit off, but last 2 days she's been acting ok. Still eating/drinking.
Should I do another round of antibiotics?
I have a little mg scale from Temu. And gelcaps Amazon. I get the ones that hold essential oil and it's what I use for meds...like wormer or whatever is best to direct dose. Plus the tiny syringes.
But yes the math, forever my weakness. I always second guess lol. I did college algebra and...
I had to do some digging bc i needed this too. This is an answer I got from my FB chicken group friend.
**Dosage is 10mg per kg. The label says it's 10mg per 100mg of powder.
So 100mg of that powder per kg of bird.**
For a 4lb chicken looks like 181 mg twice a day. Check my math on above. My...
Do you have any recommendations?
I've been doing Amoxicillin and Albon since Saturday.
She's tail up, scratching around, and eating like a normal chicken today. I'm going to check her crop tonight to see how she did.
It's also small compared to googled lash eggs. Maybe 1/4-1/2 inch thick x 1 inch long.
It's inside a clear baggie in this pic lol, not touching it....🤮
She had other droppings after this that had bulk, almost normal, but brownish green. Prob what a fed her by hand last night. As green indicates bile, not eating.
Bingo pooped this under the roost bars last night. I poked it with a disposable knife, it's firm.
Source of infection or intestinal tissue? God forbid, lash egg
