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.

It cured my hen

Honestly, it wasn't easy administering this. I had to get a syringe with a narrow tube and put the tube in my hens mouth to inject the nystatin. It wasn't fun or easy but it did work!! I rescued a hen that's crop was dragging the ground. It was impacted and quickly became sour. I worked out the impaction and then used nystatin. You can't even tell she has ever had any crop issues before. Would/will use again.

Works Amazing- Fast delivery

I greatly appreciate your company making these types of products available when it is difficult to get a vet in the area to administer to a flock of chickens. I recommend this site to anyone with birds in need.

For sour crop

I purchased this to help a silkie that was suffering from impacted crop that turned to sour crop. I have been dosing her according to the directions (which isn't easy) and have seen no improvement at all.
