Chickens not eating much.

Recommended Posts

My two new girls both seem to have colds, the Welsummer [13 weeks old] was sounding a bit rattly before so I know this will mean a visit to the vet on Monday. Neither seem to be eating their pellets but will eat corn quiet happily in fact I think thats all they will eat. I have put ACV and Citradel in the water and given them some poultry spice in the food hoping they will eat some of it. I have ordered some nutri drops. Any suggestions as to what else I can give them to eats not eating can't be good for them as they are both still fairly young.

If they're rattly new additions, it's most like mycoplasma. It's fairly common when introducting new stock, as it's latent in most birds and surfaces at times of stress. Sorry to say that antibiotics from the vet are the only answer.
