Post subject:  How do I treat an Ear infection?

Hey Guys

One of my white commercials has really gunky ears that stink really bad.

It doesn't seem to affect her any. She's still laying eggs everyday & eating & all that but for so e reason she's picked up some sort of yucky ear bug/infection.

Totally gross as it stinks mega bad.

I'm not sure how to treat this.

Any suggestions?

Cheers
Chicka-Dee

A vet can supply the correct ear drops needed

Yeah, I was hoping someone on the forum might have an idea without me having to visit the Vet

I used a broad spectrum anti biotic in the past for such infections and its purchased online

You mean like Oxymav B? :?:

I've got some of that but never thought of giving her that to help with her ears. :shock:

I thought I might have to get some sort of ear drops. conf665

Have you had a chicken with infected ears too Cordelia?

Yes thats the one :-D

I have had a middle ear infection in a bantam which was diagnosed by a vet and the oxy worked well but took several days to work

Oh Cool [smilie=a_goodjobson.gif]

Thanks for the help Cordelia.

Knew someone on the forum would have come across this problem before. th_clap.gif

I ended up soaking the crusty stuff off her ears & then getting an ear bud and getting the gross smelly white cheesy stuff out of her ears. So far it hasn't come back but I needed some help just in case it comes back.

Thanks again

Cheers
