Infectious bug? – causing problems for chickens.
Hi there
We lost a couple of Chickens recently to a respiratory infection, symptoms are:
- very dark red cone and
- being able to see the bird breathing.
Both of these symptoms are a very bad sign, and of course the birds are off their food and looking fluffed up.
Just letting those of you who love your chickens know, in case its an infectious thing going around.
We had to get antibiotic to put into other birds water. Really is awful and birds do suffer, get on to it quickly if birds look unwell.
Kind Regards,
Hubbard Family
