Chicken help
« on: August 19, 2010, 20:49 »
Hi im new to the forum so sorry if i have posted this in the wrong place. I have 6 Isa brown chickens around 3 months old. I have noticed that a few of them were sneezing and have runny noses some have bubbles coming from there nose. They are eating well and still laying. Is there anything that i can give them? Thanks

hiya and firstly welcome to the forum,    Sounds like your girlies will need vetinary attention, some antibiotics should clear them up if its the case of the sniffles,  prehaps in the morning give your vet a call and explain the symptons to him and see wot he or her recomends, they will defintatley need a course of something though, hope they get better soon.   nickyx
4 girlies,  Nessa, Pamela, Stacey and Tina

Are you sure they are 3 months old?  ISAs wont start laying until they are 16 - 18 weeks old, and that's if you're lucky... most hens don't start laying until they are 20 or more weeks.
