> Sorry to post again :) but I just saw the poo from my pullet and it
looks totally normal. She's eating a little. I'm going to give her more
scrambled egg & cut up grapes, which she seems to like. My white hen is
scratching around but still a bit slow. Perhaps antibiotics are the way to
go?
> Should I give that to the whole flock? I will see if I can track down a
med other than terrymycin... but we do live a rural place and some things
are hard to get.
Kristen the terramycin should work. I would not treat the whole flock, only
the ones that act sick. Can you separate the one that isn't doing well from
the others? That way she gets to eat without having to use a lot of energy
to get enough food. If she is on the bottom of the pecking order it can be
difficult for them to get enough food.
