This morning I made up three little dishes of mash with the tylan water and the ground poultry zest mixed into them. I put one dish by each shelter and one dish on the chicken’s patio.
By mid morning the dish by the big shelter was empty. I refilled it and by this time the little girls had moved to the small shelter.
The little girls are in the small shelter and not looking a picture of happiness!
This is when they seem to look their worse but there were no bubbles in their eyes and I couldn’t hear any wheezing in their breathing.

A bit later the little girls joined Emerald and Speckles in the sun.
I dug the run over yesterday and both yesterday afternoon and again this afternoon the girls were out scratching and pecking.

It was so nice to see them being a bit more active. They had eaten most of their mash by the end of the day.
I really think we have finally turned the corner with this although I am still afraid of getting too carried away. They seem to be gradually getting better and sneezing less. I am hopeful that we are over the worse.

The diference between the photo taken in the shelter and the one in the run is incredible. Fingers still crossed. 🙂
I know, one minute they are all looking miserable and then they suddenly perk up and look normal again. I am really hoping that they will continue to be better each day and I have my fingers crossed too.
Agreed, a definite visible difference. Good to hear that you have seen an improvement.
It’s been a very slow process but I finally feel they are improving.
As long as you get there in the end.
I hope so, it’s still a bit up and down from day to day.
