If you are looking for Bird Antibiotics that normally need a script Try "Allbirds.com" They are also willing to assist. The last time I contacted them 3 yrs ago they were selling Baytril. Of course you will pay a bit more so try to make sure you know what your treating so you buy the...
I have been using ACV for MONTHS! I reluctantly even made a stronger shot in a syringe & gave about 2cc.
I can feel the Lump breakdown. Also 1/4 tab of a 200mg Ibuprofin is a must(I use the Generic ROUND Brown/Red ones at CVS & wipe the coating off before using a pill cutter). I usually like...
This is for anyone doing a search on this subject because there is a lack of info. on the topic. I have been through it all for "2" Yrs. with Chickens!!! A lot of Heartache,$$$ Spent on Drugs,suppliments, & trial & error. I usually end up with a long page of info. but this time i'm only going...
I wanted to get this out there for anyone who lives in this central region. Animal Place is looking for People who want to adopt. Presently they have just rescued a bunch of Young Leghorns but I'am also aware that they typically also have a few other Breeds. I have adopted from them before &...
One thing I would like to state on the subject of Monistat use! . I'm glad the Monistat worked for you but after 2 Yrs. of research & trial/error on Fungus in Crops I was informed by 2 Bird Experts that the Monistat contains Chemicals that are Toxic to the Chicken. I'm a Medical Asst. & Hard...
Shaking of the head CAN be related to a Yeast infection in the Crop which in turn will also result in Intestinal Yeast . They won't want to eat Grain & They want to eat Grass to increase their Acid Levels which helps kills off Yeast-Fungal spores. I KNOW this because I have seen it in my Flock...
I wanted to post this info.so people will check for other problems such as FUNGAL. There seems to always be an assumption its viral related. Blue Comb can also be Yeast Related-Fungal. There are some things you should check because I have been dealing SPECIFICALLY with a Crop Fungal...
I'am VERY Familiar with Denegard. I prefer the European site but I just tried looking for it & can't get a hit on it. The Best thing about Denegard according to the European site which is where most of the extensive studies were done is that the bacteria that is involved with MG- CRD CAN NOT...
NOTE: IF YOU SEE ANY OF MY OTHER POSTS ON FUNGAL THEY MAY BE SIMILAR BUT THERE ARE A FEW THINGS I WOULD REMOVE FROM THEM NOW OR CHANGE. UNFORTUNATELY THEY ONLY GIVE YOU SO MUCH TIME TO EDIT SO GO WITH THIS ONE! If you think your Hen has Fungal it IS NOT a Good idea to Regurgitate! Stress is a...
I know this post is old but I wanted to get this info. out there! I have a Bird on its last leg & have been fighting for Mos. with a Fungal Crop. SHE HASN'T ATE ANY GRAINS OR MEALWORMS for "10DAYS". She will Only Eat a Variety of Grass.
BEFORE I go into the info. I rec'd I wanted to mention a...
Well, I JUST LEARNED that Some Blue in the Comb CAN BE related to Yeast -Fungal in Crop OR MORE SO Intestinal. It Can also be a partial Intestinal Blockage OR Pressure on Intestines. I have been Dealing with a Fungal Situation. In 2, A 2-3YO. Rooster/ a 4-5YO Hen.
They have had BOTH...
FINALLY AT THE END OF THIS NIGHTMARE! VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE ON PROBIOTICS!!! PLEASE READ BEFORE USING INFO. ABOVE!!!
You would think when you use a product or Make the Effort to Call BEFORE Buying a Product that you would receive accurate information on a products Ingredients. I actually...
FOLLOW UP & SOME ADDED TIPS/INFO. BY CHICKEN LITTLE.
FIRST TOPIC: Bringing Inside I noticed that after a few days it seemed like I hit a stagnant point. IN SHORT I realized she really wanted to be out with the others which was adding stress(Stress bad for Fungal!). This may NOT be for Every...
SORRY,I Just seen she Passed. I would still invest in a tub of this Coconut Oil. Its great to have around for various reasons as stated. You can also use it on yourself for Hair & skin so it won't go to waste.
There IS Something you can try Immediately for Nourishment but will cost a little. FIRST,GET HER INSIDE & PUT HER IN A TUB AWAY FROM THE OTHERS. They will pick on her & Stress will only make her go down faster! BUY ORGANIC Coconut Oil sold at places like Sprouts is good for MANY REASONS...
I will start by saying that in "VERYMILD CASES" you can use things such as Raw apple Cider Vinegs such as Braggs(no Heinz) or Oregano Oil with a Carbonal rating of 60 or better, or Oxine drops in water(NO METAL CONTAINERS). The ONLY issue you may have is that this also kills GOOD Bacteria so...
I'm only replying to this old post to try & help others. I HAVE consulted with an Avian Vet(30yrs.+exp.).& I'm also a Med. Asst. I was orig. using Monistat 3 Suppositories cut into 1/3rds(1 piece morn./eve.) because my Crops Hen was Bloated-Crop farting when pressure applied along with...
Sounds like you have 2 things going on & if there is excessive mucus(looks like clear snot) then she probably has a Fungal infection on top of being somewhat impacted. If you don't have a good avian vet you could try Monistat 3 & slice supositories into 1/3rds(5-7Lb. hen) avg.1/3rd Morn./Eve.)...
Ok, I just spoke to the Avian Vet(30+yrs practicing). She stated "Canker" is more rare in Chickens & more common in Pigeons. Cankers are attatched & NOT FREE Moving. She stated if I was feeling " Free Moving Balls" in the Crop then this is a Yeast Infection & if left untreated the Mucus that...
See "the Poultry site" There are great instructions for using it for Canker. YES you need to be careful & be accurate on water mixture. It also instructs to use Epsom Salt first(READ Specifics on site). It makes sense now to me. I was using just Braggs Aplle Cider Vinegar with the...
