birds are dying

[bobtail]

the birds have been going down within 24 hours then they die they have wet dropings which is very bad no other signs of illness any thoughts.

Best get a bird tested but sounds like circovirus.

[OLDYELLOW]

a few questions

1 what corn are you feeding ?

2 what age birds are affected ?

3 are your birds been let out ?

[pault]

are the birds drinking a lot of water

[chichichi]

sounds bad.. get them tested asap.. but don't just let them get worst,, some natural things,, cider vinegar in water,, yogart on food ...

 

they need treatment .. be careful what fanciers post ,, defra are clamping down on fanciers using un prescribed drugs.. do as we do go to a vet and get all the products needed for the illness from them..

 

the best of luck

Herpes is a possibility

[DOVEScot]

As other members have said and get them tested as soon as possible by an avian vet, or get one that is still alive to your nearest Defra for post mortem, no use in members just guessing when it is that serious

[OLDYELLOW]

have they been fielding i.e been in a field ?
