HENthusiastic Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Hi guys, Matilda my ex-batt who is never in fantastic health, has developed a slight sneeze! No other sign of anything else though. I've done a quick search and understand that I need to be giving her is citricidal in her water. I just wanted to check that this is right. There are no other symptoms (apart from her usual on/off ailments). Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Citricidal is brilliant for colds HEN, try adding garlic powder or granules to their feed too (if you don't already) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HENthusiastic Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 They've all got the sneezes now! Only slightly though. Hopefully they should be okay soon. Matilda aint so great (aside from the sneezes). I've put a thread on chicken clinic about her. Did you have a hot date then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyhas3chucks Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 My hole in neck girl has been sneezing pretty much all winter, vet could find nothing wrong but some dried mucas in one nostrill, & a kink in her throat from the hole. Still using ciricidal though. No one else sneezes though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
