Thank you Richard,but tis not I who will not leave it alone,as you can see by the post before your's.But I will as you say leave it alone because enough is enough,and I cannot for whatever reason get these people to realize that they to are doing the same thing. For whatever reason. Goodbye

You see,even you have EXCEPTIONS.
Nice word that,gets you out of a lot of
chicken manure.

Could not agree more Richard,but the replies just seem to cover up the fact that these people DO use dr-ugs on their chickens that they are supposed not to.Then turn around and tell somebody else they are not to do it !! Who do the begginers ask,the vet.They were not told to blindly use it,just the ...

Then you tell me,how many vets know how to prescribe for chickens,or for that matter even care about them.What they do is go through a list of medication until they have cured it if you are very lucky.And I've been down that road far to many times. If there are not people on here that have not been ...

NOW what was the thing I mentioned TWICE!! Something along the lines of begginers asking FIRST,and the first stxxxd reply I get is=I don't think it's a good idea advising begginers to use medication they know nothing about. I think reading lessons should be a first, friendly site or not. I seem to r...

Sorry just could not miss this one,even if somebody is already using it,is thinking of using it,saw it and was going to mention it,or for any other reason. Duramycin-10 is an antibiotic used for swine,calves and poultry.All you need to know about it is on the site or packet. For begginers,ask before...

Afternoon,I noticed that my chook's used to eat them.But
now we have Garlic as well as ACV in the water,there doe's
not appear to be any about.Shame really the chook's miss
the maggots.

I was talking to a breeder this morning,and she was telling me about all the bother mites gave her last year.(sound familiar)Anyway her vet who is a chicken keeper himself,said he uses INDOREX.I'm sure some of you have heard of it,and have probably used it.This lady used it for the first time last y...

Could you tell us please,which penicillin the
vet changed to.

If you suffer from Asthma,get you dentist to check
for Lesions in the mouth.They breed germs that go down
to the lungs.I think that is what may start the Exherbations.

The best I can find on this is; Oxytetracycline,tetracycline. Ampicillin & Tylan. Could try Corticosterone 30mg/kg but not as good. Obviously ask the vet. Best of luck. I am using Tylosin ( Tylan )

Still find that ACV & Garlic in the water for
two weeks at a time does a good job ?

I think it's a Partridge something or other,maybe
an RIR PARTRIDGE ????

Hi, We have kept birds of one sort or another for a long time now.Snowy Owls,Barn owls,European Eagle owls, Kestrels,Buzzards, Canaries,Pigeons and Doves.So my vet has taught me a lot over the years,even to the point of having the proper scales.Nothing is left to chance,even the percentages. But th...

Yes he is ours,but will probably be selling him this year,and
I'm going to hate it.Waited nearly a year to get him,he came
a long way to get here.Not enough hens for him now.
