What is Candida in birds?

Candida is an environmental fungus that infects the bird's digestive tract. Often times making their crops smell 'sour', candida is the main reason for 'sour crop' infection in birds.  Many factors can lead to Candida as a primary infection such as contaminated water, diet (excessive sugar in food or fatty seeds that go rancid), long periods of treating with antibiotics such as Doxycycline, and a compromised immune system. Some symptoms of Candida, or sour crop, include a compacted or fowl-smelling crop, a crop full of mucus, fluffed feathers, lethargy, loss of appetite, and delayed emptying of the crop.

Highly recommend in damp locations

Last summer was extremely wet here in the south and I had something spreading around the flock. Each chicken had sour crop and I wasn't sure if it was canker, wet pox, eating the mold and mushrooms that were out of control because of the soggy conditions. This helped all of them with sour crop so now I use this once a month in my chickens feed and it has helped prevent any further breakouts. Mix dry crumbles with some kickin' chicken liquid then add Fungistat powder, mix again and put into feeders. I mix enough to last them 3-5 days. And, unfortunately this summer is looking to be just as damp. Mold and mushrooms are popping up so I'm trying to keep that cleaned up and so happy to have this to keep our flock healthy!
