chuckmum6 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 My remaining Maran bantie has become lame, she also seem to have trouble breathing and turn purplish. I also feel she is too hot, so have started her on antibiotics, although her sister had similar problems and the outcome was bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I would take her to a vet, if you've had another like it then it could be infectious. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Oh dear she does sound poorly. Would agree re vet. Fingers crossed for her. Alli x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongladosh Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Sorry to hear it (hope she recovers!) When did her sister have similar issues, was it recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 Her sister was ill about three months ago, the vet didn't feel it was a contagious illness, more likely a tumour or liver problem. The strange thing is the limp, I think that Onion my cockerel maybe the cause of the limp. The other Maran just wasted away, this one is still eating, but is not getting any better even though she is isolated and resting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
