She is a barred Plymouth Rock chicken. And for three days total she's been very lethargic. She has been cleaning herself, eating, drinking and pooping on her own. I have been giving her pedialyte and water through a dropper several times a day. She has a lot of fight in her when I pick her up though. She seems very tired. Yet still i see her through the day up and standing, but then back to lying down. & shell open her eyes for a split second... They seem red. And something sticky on her eyelids as if she has pink eye. She is segregated right now and trying my best to keep her very comfortable
..... Anyone have a clue what's wrong ????? I am hoping that her eating/drinking and cleaning herself still and all of that is a good sign..... Thanks for the help........

Yes she is in good condition I am so confused why she's acting so tired..... And the red eyes worry mr
 
Yes we just went to the store and got dewormer and aslso antibiotics and are going to be doing all of the flock as well as her... And no signs of respiratory problems at all. HUGE UPDATE!! We put her outside under some shade in a little pin my dad made for her to get a little bit more sun since the porch is covered up, and also so she can scratch and have some more 'normalcy' and she is opening her eyes ALOT now. Drinking more frequently from her bowl. Her eyes no longer have goopy stuff, but they are still red. Still pooping normally and she seems a lot more spunky being able to scratch and all of that. Hoping and praying for our lovely biddie!! Still watching closely and monitoring.
