Birdbrain Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 She isnt making a normal hen noise...she is opening her mouth and if any sound comes out, it isnt normal. She has been eating ok and laying...her comb is red and she seems ok. I am worried she may have gapeworm..is there a treatment for this? Thankyou so much for your help!

theherd123 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Hi there, sorry to hear your chook is unwell. Does it look like your chookie is gasping when she opens her mouth? If so it is most probably gapeworm as you mentioned. If so a double dose of Flubenvet is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
