Egluntyne Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Perhaps you should cut back on the fruit and veg? Are their wings drooped or are they just holding them away from their bodies in an effort to keep cool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angeluk69 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Do they have any other symptoms?? Make sure that in this heat they have plenty of cool water available and plenty of shaded areas. I don't have any experience of chicks sorry, Im sure someone else will be along shortly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller30 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Chickens can not have coxoid and flubenvet at the same time its one or the other i would get them off the wormer and leave them on the coxoid what are their symptoms? leanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markAndCharlene Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 This time of year is also a bit of a nightmare for respiratory problems if your coop is not ventilated enough. Are any of your flock sneezing or do they have a throaty rattle when breathing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
