I noticed the camera focused on Virbac Revive & I am wondering if Virbac Revive can be given to a chicken with diarrhea? I have a 10.5 month old hen who has had chronic diarrhea since November. She has recently been diagnosed with Gapeworm & has been treated with Safeguard for goats. That did not cure the diarrhea. Any advice on what to use to treat would be wonderful as I have tried many other home remedies. Thank you!
