Is my chicken ok???

Date sort Score sort
If it's fowl pox, it has to run it's course, since it's a virus. I don't know about those mites. I know that for leg mites, you suffocate them with Vaseline. Maybe that would work for the comb.

I hope you are able to get the condition under control, whatever it is.

Hello and welcome to BYC!

Sounds like she isn't feeling well. How old is she? If she is a younger bird, Coccidiosis is possible...as chicks and young pullets have not yet developed immunity.

If she is an older hen, she could be egg bound. You will need to do an exam through the vent to feel for a stuck egg.

If she is an older bird and has not been wormed recently, she could have an over load of worms which will kill her. Mites on her exterior body can drain them as well.

You might also post this in our emergency section for more help from the members that frequent the health section of our forums. Here is a link to starting a new thread there... https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/threads/add/forumId/10

Good luck with your girl and I hope she makes a full recovery! :)
