infectious bronchitis

Just had my 1 yo Cochin die and sent for necropsy. Came back positive for MS, Coryza and Bronchitis. I know even if I treat the rest of the flock they can remain carriers. I’ve got chicks I hatched out that have not been exposed to the one that died and I practice strict biosecurity when it...

Hello! I got a 12 week old hen off of Facebook (I know, not the best idea 😭) and she seems sick. We’ve had her for 11 days now. We noticed bloody diarrhea the second day, which we treated for coccidiosis using CORID for 5 days, and now she’s on the preventative dose. She immediately had more...

Hello, I am looking for some help with my buff orph that is about 6 months old. As of this morning when she came out of the coop she had a whistling breath and was sneezing. She also has a runny nose. I've given electrolytes in the water and then was told oregano would work better. So currently...

my 2.5 week old polish chick is opening and closing its mouth. Is this a good medicine regime? Tylan-oral Multivitamin Paracetamol Or Amoxicillin or any other antibiotic? I’m really worried.
