Chicken Health <br /> Veterinarians: A veterinarian is strongly recommended for your chickens. Ideally, each <br />chicken would have an appointment with a chicken veterinarian when you first get it (“healthy <br />pet exam”) to establish a relationship with a veterinarian. That way when it gets sick, you <br />already have a veterinarian of record. Veterinarians below regularly see backyard chickens <br />(there are many others in the Twin Cities area): <br />o Cedar Pet Clinic, Lake Elmo <br />Drs. John Baillie, Anna Ulfeng, Noemi Plantz <br />11051 Stillwater Boulevard <br />Lake Elmo, MN 55042 <br />651-770-3250 cedarpetclinic.com <br />o Valley View Pet Hospital <br />Drs. Larry and Michelle Tholl <br />13600 Cty. Rd 11 <br />Burnsville, MN 55337 <br />952-432-9661 valleyviewvet.com <br />o Camden Pet Hospital <br />Dr. Cynthia Fetzer <br />1401 44th Ave. N <br />Minneapolis, MN 55412 <br />612-522-4374 camdenpet.com <br /> Preventative medicine: <br />o It is important to regularly handle your chickens so you can identify when they might be <br />sick. Chickens hide illness so when you notice your chicken is sick, they are often very <br />ill. <br />o Chickens would also benefit from yearly fecal examinations by your veterinarian and <br />subsequent deworming as needed. <br />o Vaccines are generally only given to chicks at the hatchery so are not needed. <br />o If you acquire new chickens at any point, a 2-week quarantine period is recommended. <br />During this time, keep the new chickens (and anything that comes into contact with them) <br />completely separate from your existing flock. This period allows you to monitor for <br />underlying health problems before introduction. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
