I have a respiratory outbreak . I visited an avian vet who prescribed Tylan powder solution for 30 days. The initial patients are doing well, but the situation continues to spread with the stress of the cold and a recent move.
I submitted the below follow up questions to the vets, but they...
My bantams need Tiagard, but they are not drinking the water, even with sugar. Two are in bad shape with foamy eyes and sputum. I tried small bits of bread with an undiluted dose appropriate to weight.
My question is, has anyone directly dosed with syringe feeding undiluted?
Or, as well have...
I wanted to post some information about getting your hands on Tylan, an important medication for Mycoplasma Gallisepticum. I'm sure someone else has made a thread about this somewhere, and I know a lot of information about this is widely known, but I recently had a lot of trouble getting my...
What is the difference between doxycycline tylosin and regular tylosin? Like what situation would call for doxycycline tylosin instead of the tylosin alone?
My chickens were given Valbazen (Dose #1) on July 21.
Dose #2 will be 10 days later on August 1.
Can I go ahead and start them on their Tylosin now? Or do I have to wait until the deworming is done?
I can’t find much information about the two meds and if they can be given at the same time.
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...
So a few days ago I made a post about my rooster Steve making a very strange moaning sound. Well today, one of my hens is sneezing and making wheezing sounds. She is still active and has no nasal discharge but I think it’s a respiratory infection going through my flock. I have never treated for...
Hi. This is my first encounter with a respiratory issue (but I've only had chickens for about 3 years). I've searched on the forums for info, and its all a little overwhelming. I have a 3 yo chicken who makes gurgle sounds when breathing. No mucus/bubbles from nostrils/eyes, no head shaking...
Please help. My four 2-3 week old chicks are all sneezing, and the littlest one is severely congested with runny poop. I can hear her rasping and wheezing when she breathes, and it's gotten worse over the past three days. I worry she may not be able to breathe if this progresses. This illness...
We recently saw one of our pullets showing symptoms of what looks to be respiratory disease. She had a runny nose and one of her eyes was bubbly so we quarantined her and began her on Tylan water but now one or two days later we found one of our other bigger girls showing some bubbles in one of...
A few weeks ago I noticed my 8 week old (roughly) Silkie chick had a swollen eye. Thought it might be a pecking injury. Then I noticed one of my road island red chicks, around the same age, started sneezing. Couple of days later I noticed bubbles in the silkies eye. I have been treating her with...
I have a little lavender orphington that's about 9 weeks. She has struggled since she was about a week old and I'm still not sure what is wrong.
She started to act sick around 1 week, eyes closed, squinting, and sleepy but no other symptoms, no drainage, nothing. I treated my flock with corid...
We just noticed this morning and it couldn't have been going on more than a few days. Her other eye seems fine, and she is acting totally normal. I don't notice anything weird with any of the other chickens either. I tried looking up exactly what it was but couldn't find any pictures that looked...
Hello all,
I have an approximately 5 year old Brahma hen displaying respiratory symptoms but also with crop issues.
I noticed she has been a bit lazy the past few days but couldn't find any other issues so wrote it off. Yesterday, however, I noticed her breathing was laboured and with every...
So I’ve heard that Tylan can be bought in powder form and injection form and I need it for my chickens. I can’t find the powder form anywhere without having a prescription, but my local Tractor Supply has the injection form. I just feel really squeamish about injecting something into an animal...
Hi,
Long story short, I've been treating with Tylan 200 for a respiratory disease that has slowly spread through my flock. It has effected my 3 mo. old chicks the most with the biggest loss in their ranks. They are also fluffy, not gaining weight and not growing. There is a 6 mo. old pullet...
Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with similar symptoms in their chickens. My rooster has been throwing up mucus/head shaking once or twice daily. The mucus is clear (no blood) In addition, some of my hens are shaking their heads, as well, with the occasional sneeze. I've...
Hi everyone! I have an sweet little bantam easter egger named Darling that may be showing signs of a respiratory illness. She keeps one of her eyes closed. It doesn't look irritated, red or swollen but she does keep it closed most of the time. I've noticed a few days ago her pecking was off when...
so, the story goes like this... I was away for 7 days and OFCOURSE my chickens were well looked after but the caregiver didn’t realize till 3 of the chickens died. One was a wyandotte and the other was a Brahma. When I was informed, the information given to me was that the chickens had flu and...
