I went out to the coop this morning to find one of my hens very upset... She souls like she is crying or almost like a cow. It is the saddest thing. she makes the cow sounding noise when she exhales and then a softer one when she inhales. she is a22 week old americana.

i have no idea, sorry. bumping it up.

 

any chance she is trying to lay her first egg and having some trouble? feel her abdomen gently and see if you feel and egg shape or it's swollen/distended.

Try putting her in a warm bath of water - she may well be stressing in laying a first egg ( as the previous poster has suggested) - hope all goes well for her!
