I have a 2 year old olive egger that has been lethargic for the last few days. At first I thought it was due to overcast weather and she might’ve been cold. She has been standing with her feathers puffed up with her tail down and will occasionally close her eyes as if she is sleepy. She has been cleaning her self so I feel that’s a good sign. The weather cleared up one day and she was bathing in the dirt bath. I’ve been checking her crop throughout the day and it has been soft. She ate some fresh corn with her flock yesterday and has been drinking some water.I checked for mites around her vent area and everything looked ok and clean. She also has not laid for a while I felt around her abdomen and couldn’t feel an egg. She is usually very vocal and talks to me but has been quiet since this has started. Where do I start? Any replies would be much appreciated. Thank you!
