She has been eating on her own. No need to crop feed, I’ve been giving tomatoes, fruits, scrambled eggs.

Hello! I posted last week about my sick girl. Once I figured out that she was loaded with kites, due to being broodie and not dust bathing. Gave her a dust bath, got rid of all mites. Still administering 1cc TID of B-12. Placed the Ivermectin under wings, bum, as directed by my chicken...

No- now she’s splayed out

No she can’t stand, legs splayed. I wish I could post a video

No, At this point can’t stand and poop yesterday was good. She still has food in her crop

This has turned to the worst within 1.5 days.

Thank you so much for helping!

All other chickens are fine.

I have been dipping her beak, broodie for about 3 weeks, long enough to hatch a baby. Again, picking her up daily to move her around. I gave her scramble eggs this am, even trying to force down opening her beak. I can start an IV on her with D5.??!! I gave more B-12. She’s about 3 years...

Last night I went out to check on all my girls (14) and my 2 yo, Ms. Ginger, was dead. The day before when I visited, everyone seemed fine. She has been broody, but I didn’t think long enough for her to starve. All the other girls are just fine, Ginger didn’t have missing feathers, nothing...

Thank you- he seems fine, it is now day 3....is this something that may just sit in there forever... will that be ok? Heck, if that’s the case, it may just break down over time?! Thank you for your response, I’ll keep checking.
