Thank you so much. Did your hen have trouble walking?

OK, so it’s about the same hen I posted yesterday. She can only walk a few steps. She was getting better today walking more but now when I feel her area around her vent, it feels very full and like it’s full of fluid. Any thoughts? I’m very worried about her. She is a two-year-old wellsummer...

OK, so I’ve given her scrambled eggs, tums, brewers yeast. I felt for an egg and did not feel for one. She seems to be running a fever. I’m thinking this is Mareks. Any other ideas?

This is her

I have her out lukewarm water bath right now, I checked her vent and I don’t see any signs of mites

They are on egg layer pellets with 16% protein. I do have Tums. I just gave her nitri drench. Kambach farms?

I have a two-year-old wellsummer hen that is unable to walk more than a few steps without sitting down and using her wings to balance. She’s able to drink and eat if I bring her to the water. Her vent is nice and soft and I don’t feel Any. Not sure when she laid an egg last. What should I do? I...

Hi there! I have a green queen hatched from November 6, 2023. I don’t have much experience with this breed of chicken, any thoughts on gender? Sexed as a pullet.

A few of my hens have this blackish discoloration on their combs. I just noticed it a couple of days ago. They are about a year and a half. There are no scabs or lesions just discoloration. Is this normal?

Thank you! Just dosed her with Monistat- appreciate your help :)

1) Splash Maran 2) Acting lethargic, still eating somewhat- isolating from the group. Not sure she has laid an egg in a while but her vent area is soft. Lots of green stool (formed) below her vent. Crop feels like a soft water balloon and is larger than normal. While mashing it, she burped...

So much better, thank you for checking on her! Monistat cream for the win!

Ok, thank you! I just read that one :) I was thinking it wasn't sour since there was no smell, but I will treat her and see how she does

Yes, she is laying. I believe yesterday I got an egg from her. I think it could be a crop issue. I picked her up and a bunch of fluid came from her mouth and her crop feels soft and watery, but not tight like a water ballon. I can feel some small hard grit in the bottom but it is mainly...

I have a 28 week hen that is acting lethargic. Some mild gurgling sounds very intermittently. She will pack and eat couple of pellets and then go and lay back down. She has watery stool. I brought her inside and gave her some electrolytes I noticed a purpleish hue to the top of her comb. I have...
