VET RXPoultry Aid, 2 fl.oz

We’ve been raising backyard chickens for a few years now, and VetRx Poultry Aid has become one of our go-to products whenever our flock shows signs of respiratory issues. A few weeks ago, one of our hens started sneezing and sounded congested—we added a few drops of VetRx to her water and applied a bit under her wings and beak as directed. Within a couple of days, we saw a noticeable improvement!What I really appreciate is that it’s made with natural ingredients and has a comforting herbal scent. It’s gentle but effective, and our birds tolerate it well. It also works great for general support during seasonal changes or stressful times, like after moving the flock or introducing new birds.Highly recommend VetRx to any poultry owner—it’s a small bottle, but it lasts a long time and really does the job. Peace of mind in a bottle!

I live in France and am new to raising chickens. Of my 3 layers, one developed a sharp bark shortly after arrival. I didn't know if it was her natural cluck, a respiratory ailment , or something caught in her throat but foolishly, I let this go on for a number of months, during which time, I felt her comb became lighter and her body thinner. I’m not sure if I was imagining her decline, but I was very worried. In desperation, after much research, I bought Poultry RX from the states, as I haven't been able to find it here. It’s a very small bottle (2oz isn’t much) but it’s ideal because I was able to have someone bring it to me in their hand luggage.The hardest part to applying it, was learning to catch and hold a chicken (lots of info on the net). However, once done, the RX is incredibly easy to use. I get the bottle open and put it down, catch the chicken, pick her up holding her wings down, put some on my finger, rub it on her beak, and wipe my finger off on her feathers. She actually seems to like the taste. No objection whatsoever. I also add a drop to the chicken water and swirl it around. I’m not faithful about the application – only every two days or so.The day after the first application, I had the sense that although she was still barking she was also moaning a bit - the favorite sound of my other chickens. Another few days, and I definitely heard a chicken sound or two. Now, after two weeks, she sounds like a chicken all the time and she has given up her barking! I am thrilled. The bottle is still almost full but I am buying another one now, so I am never out of it.This is a great product for a chicken novice. I wasn’t worried that I’d poison my chicken, no antibiotics, no chicken handling skills required, inexpensive, wasn’t worried about eating the eggs… no downside.

I highly recommend!

A must have for the poultry first aid kit. Had helped me bring a number of chickens, ducks, and geese back to help.

I really like this product, but I wish the feed stores would bring back the yellow antibiotic powder, which worked great for poultry when they got sick with upper respiratory infections. This product does help to ease some breathing difficulties, but you are still going to have to go to a vet and probably get your bird put on an antibiotic.

I was watching the grandchickens while my daughter was away on her honeymoon. Her first/oldest chicken was making a rattling noise and one day started acted like she was gagging. She started losing feathers too. I was so worried she would die on my watch I started looking for solutions.I got a warm mist humidifier to use with the RX. They put it in the hen house for a few hours at night since it wouldn’t harm the other hens. I guess that produced too much moisture so after a few nights they stopped. They started grabbing her first thing in the morning before she was too awake (she doesn’t like being touched) and rubbing the RX on her beak, head and wings. After a week she was noticeably better!! They’ve been using it on her and adding it to their water for a few weeks now and she is doing great!!

Does help my chicks.

Worked for me and apparently for a lot of other people since 1874!! They do still make things like they use too !!!This product really worked for me and my birds. I had rescued 16 birds from a farm where they where under feed, had worms,(treated this with apple cider vinegar in the water for weeks.), Birds were coughing, and wheezing, aLot of missing feathers, sleeping all day, they were in bad shape.So far what I have done is.Put a small amount under each birds wings both sides. I put some of Vet RX on there heads and cones, A few birds I had to rub over eye lids etc.After a few days of this and other things like fresh herbs.A couple of the birds still where having breathing issues so I put some directly in there mouth with a dropper little by little. After a while I think they liked it.I use other things besides vet RX too and I think overall health of the birds is part of the diet, meds etc. However This Product worked great for me. I did not get anything else right away because I thought those birds was not going to make it.So I have got two other bottles of vet RX and I am going to add this to my weekly routine.I added a few drops to fresh water daily when they are out in the sun.
