Well, Psycho's gone. :( She ended up with a mass on the back of her neck, under the skin. When pressed on her body would seize and twitch and her eyes would close and she's practically have a full blown seizure. Without pressure she was fine. Her other conditions did not improve, and only...

Just an update: I took her out and let her out on the grass so I could change her bedding. Fortunately her digestive system is working because I found she was lying in her own poo and lots of it was also buried - I saw none the past few days so I was worried she wasn't able to. Her 'condition'...

The swelling in her feet has gone down, though the brown spots have turned hard like scabs but there is no noticeable pain in her feet. The tremors in her legs are now randomly occurring but when I pick her up she kicks constantly with both legs, almost like a reflex, like when a chicken is...

She was part of the first flock we ordered from a catalogue at our local Tractor Supply, so I'm not sure if she or the others were vaccinated. The last chickens we added to the flock were Rhode Island Reds from a farming supply place (can't remember the name), and all of them were perfectly...

There was an unfortunate change today. I checked on her and saw her feet were swollen and small brown lumps were appearing (like bumblefoot). They were not there yesterday and I don't see any injuries on her feet. If she had an injury then it must have been extremely small. I did see a pinprick...

A little update. Unfortunately her clumsy, inability to balance and stand caused her to constantly stagger, flap her wings, and spill her water everywhere. We found her lying in soaking wet bedding, shivering and in a sad state this morning. I dumped out the crate to give her fresh, dry shavings...

All our EE's were flighty but she was the queen of flighting! Thanks for your response. It wasn't hard to get her with some help as she couldn't run well (she could lunge forward and flap her wings for a few feet), and we brought her to a crate with some nice hay bedding for extra warmth. Her...

I just went out 30 minutes ago to feed the ducks and pigs, and I noticed one of our 4-year old hens (easter egger chicken from tractor supply stock) was 'sitting' near the duck coop. I thought that was odd, so I approached her. This particular hen is named Psycho, because since the time she was...
