seems you allowed water to soak the saw dust in the pen.
remove and replace them urgently if true

there is no saw dust in the pen, and there is also no trace of water on the ground.
all the chick are just static...not moving at all

It seems like they now down with the fowl cholera. I suggest you start treatment to salvage the situation. Antibiotics, vitamins. Oral route advised but you can inject...….though the birds are already stressed..........take heart.

Next time pls, vet or not, check and confirm what is to be used on/for your birds.

thanks a lot for ur concern... i will check out the link right away...the vet doc examined the dead ones, he said they have cough that he will come back tomorrow... I have to be up all night...can't even sleep

I assume the vaccine is oil based. The birds are usually still after, 1st FC vaccination. Allow vaccine to reach room temperature, next time.Good luck

Bros, u ar holding d vaccine and yet d answer is right in front of you.. The vaccine has expired.... ..
Since December last year

Hello, you PM me but i couldnt access the mail i used to register here(forgot the password).

The vaccine Is not a live vaccine, so they cant come down with fowl cholera like that, the birds need antistress, But are you really dealing with a vet?

The stress due to the vaccination must have whipped up underlying or latent infection
I wonder the kind of vet that will say chicken has cough.

Ow are ur birds doing now
They must be laying very very well

You can send all your enquiry here sir, 'adebisiyemmit@gmail.com".

Some vets can be very funny, cough kwa?

So he gave them cholera vaccine for having cough hmmm God dey sha

Anyways, first you have to tell us the physical signs in your pen:

1) Nature of their droppings
2) Productivity and feed intake
3) Do they cold-out with their head dropping to the floor?
4) Your Vaccination procedure
5) Nature of their eggs
6) And drugs you've administered before and after the issue came

Then, I can tell you what to do....but for now, go get a strong anti-viral drug and add vitalyt...that should stem the mortality for now
Do not deworm or vaccinate sick birds

@obizeal
How did it go? I hope the birds are fine now?
