Oh okay thank you, sorry I wasn't able to respond in a while. I have come to the conclusion that my hens might only be sneezing because I haven't done a good enough job of keeping their living space clean.
Recently one of the birds pooped some dark green stuff and some of the rice I gave them as a treat had not fully digested.
So by water-based lube for her vent does that mean I can't use something like vaseline?
I am also very worried because sometimes my hens do poop fiber-heavy green poop and sometimes watery poop as well, they have very good calcium rich layer feed though. Also I give them eggshells and did give all 4 of them one human calcium supplament in wet feed for a couple of days.
BUMP, please help me, I need to find out what to do fast about my hen, I am worried about her since she still lays soft shelled eggs and even than not as often as she used to lay. I am pretty sure she is also still pooping that orange poop every now and than though I haven't seen any blood nor...
Its a solid orange color alongside some regular poop usually, every now and than it is all by itself, recently I fed the hens some peaches but it hasn't affected color at all, their poop looks more normal than ever at the moment.
I have a couple hens, lately I've been seeing orange poop coming from them pretty consitantly, I heard if it happened every couple weeks it was fine but its still happening and its sort of scaring me, I had a hen that has some laying problems that is likely the culprit, I am going to put her in...
I have an update, one or two of my hens seems to have pooping a lot of orangeish poop as of late, I heard its only a bad sign if its often so its worried me. Also The hens still have the rash problems and the feather issues and their breathing problems.
Should I clean their nose? I also heard...
Thank you for the information.

I ended up using the tips from this thread I made for help with my sick hen and other hens.
I have some amprolium and was going to start giving it to them, they still lay eggs at the moment but I am super worried about them.
I can't tell whether my birds still have lice or not, I use both diatomaceous earth and permathin to kill them twice to make sure the eggs can't survive, I...
Well all my hens seem to sneeze more often ever since I treated the yard with permathin and Diaotaceous Earth for lice. It used to be worse even before that but I once treated them for their breathing issues with amoxicillin and tylosin it was much better, especially for the hen.
Would calcium...
So just some aloe vera gel? Also my red hen had always had a part of her belly since I got her that had no feathers, my two other hens had only lost feathers this last half of the year. Also my last hen, the youngest one started to only lose feathers on her butt due to feather lice but as of...
