And I spoke too soon. Now she is ruffled up and yellow watery poop. I think she's got coccidiosis again. I scoop out the coop and run daily, was hoping it would cut down on reinfection. We just had TONS of rain so that probably didn't help. The edges of the run get wet from roof runoff.

Bingo update; A few days after treatment the yellow cap poop stopped and went to normal. And she laid an egg today!

I know to treat the whole flock for coccidia. Will I need to treat the whole flock for blackhead/flagellates too? Or just Bingo? Also I have chicks. 6-8 weeks. I'm bringing then outside soon. I have a seperate area in a seperate run for them to grow up. How do I keep on top of them so they...

The vet was an hour away. I can ask if they sell them and pick one up. What are the egg withdrawal days for toltrazural and metronidazole?

She didn't. But Bingo is eating and drinking on her own right now.

I have 4 chickens, I want to treat everyone. I have 2 full sized and 2 bantam.

I will have to request records or weigh her once home. Hubby came with me to the vet and we're almost home.

I have toltrazural. Will get that started now. Run is cleaned out, but I just did new bedding in coop a few days ago. Likely need to change again, though I have removed poop in there daily. I ordered the metronidazole. It can take a few days. I have Tiagard if that kills flagellates?

The vet found flagellates and very high coccidia in Bingo. She said the flagellates were likely blackhead, but not 100%. But the coccidia likely has caused her liver upset and the yellow capped poop. So she can't prescribe anything for blackhead, fda rules or something. And she's saying 72 hr...

I'm taking her into the vet, but they got her set up for Tuesday. Anything I can do to keep her getting worse by then? And any suggestions what I should ask for? I'm going to bring in a fecal and ask for parasites/bacterial on that.

I read this from the university of Perdue, which is 2 hrs from me. Apparently the Midwest does see it in chickens. (I'm in Indiana). But I'm not seeing how it's tested, so not something I'll be able to test to treat. I'm not thoroughly convinced it's that anyhow and do believe she is having a...

What would you recommend to treat a reproductive infection?

I went to poultry dvm and put in every symptom my chickens had/have and the top 2 items were blackhead and roundworm. I had fecals done recently that said capillaria and coccidia. They didn’t test blackhead. We are losing #4 chicken right now, #5 has the yellow in droppings and off as per...

Yes I feed layer feed. Yes I give layer feed, (new country organics pastured perfect). I don't give any corn. Their snack is just soaked layer feed with probiotic powder, and I add poultry cell a couple times per week. I haven't added any poultry cell yesterday or today to see if that changes...

The feed I have is corn and soy free. Not sure if that affects anything. She's standing weird this morning. I'll observe her more often through the day as I have some desk work and their run is in eye shot.

The snack is 1/2 cup of soaked feed. They also have a feeder to free eat from all day. I will stop poultry cell and see it that helps. She is puffing up a little, but it could be the cold. Today I only got 1 egg from a bantam cochin. Got 3 yesterday, 2 from bantams, and 1 brown full sized...

Ok. I'll start antibiotics. She's not overweight, feels normal/ leaning toward slender but not bony. As far as treats, I give a small handful of black soldier fly larvae between all 5 once in the morning, (maybe they get 5-8 bugs a piece). I don't do scratch. I wet about 1/2 cup of feed in a...

Her shells have always been nice and strong. I feed new country organics pastured perfect layer feed. Wormed Feb23 and March 8th, 2024. I have denegard and amoxicillin here.

Noticed weird yellow capped poop about 4-5 days ago. Pinpointrd it to 7.5 mo old black star hen named Bingo. Started laying brown eggs in January. Noticed less eggs overall this week (I have 4 layers). Was often getting 2 brown eggs on the same days (I have 1 other that lays brown). So...
