Hello! I had such a situation. I bought a rooster, in the evening I brought it into the chicken coop to my chickens, and in the morning I saw that he was wheezing and he had a discharge from his nose, in the evening there were no these signs. Two days later all my chickens fell ill - they began to wheeze and sneeze .And this rooster stopped wheezing .... They advised to drink them with eriprim. I drank for 6 days, wheezing stopped as well as egg production .... Later I read that laying hens should not be given this drug .... Now there is a strange picture in the chicken coop ... roosters don’t trample chickens, chickens don’t they rush, they only eat a lot and sleep .... there is silence in the chicken coop ... It scares me, I thought it might be a molt,? But a month and a half ago they were well-grown after an active annual egg production .... Maybe this is the effect of this prohibited medicine for layers?
