We seem to have an outbreak of some sort, maybe you can help me figure out what it is and how to treat it? They have watery eyes mainly. One, who is the worst, stretches up her neck every few seconds to breathe it seems. Others are breathing hard from their open beaks. Any ideas?? I went ahead and cleaned/bleached out their waterer and put in some antibiotic, Duromyacin-10.
Some are not showing any symptoms. I started to seperate the sickies from the ones who do not show sign. I have a total of 20 chickens, it seems like about 8 or 9 are definetly infected. Some worse than others. Does it really do any good to seperate them??? They have all been sharing the same wter and food sorce. I figure maybe just treat them all with the Duromyacin water, and not both seperating them, except for the worst ones? I have about 5 in a pen next door away from the rest of the flock, the ones that look the worst.
Anyway... what do you think I should do, what do you think this is, and is it very treatable, or am I fighting a losing battle?
Thanks
