11 year old chicken

[Poulty Lover]

My absolute favorite chicken is an 11 year old Americana. I’ve been worried about her since she’s getting up there, but has been doing very well and handled the winter very well. Unfortunately the last couple of weeks I haven’t been able to get my usual chicken food and had to use a cheaper one. She’s started to go downhill. Is there something I can get or make at home to give her a nutrient boost?

I would put her on starter/grower feed. She doesn't need the calcium anymore that layer has, presuming she's not laying anymore. Wow, that's wonderful she's lived this long!

She was still laying occasionally last fall. Idk if she’ll start again this spring or not. Thanks for the reply!

Scrambled eggs, maybe add some omegas like hemp hearts, flaxseeds, and Greek yogurt. All helpful and tasty! Congrats on an 11 year old chicken! She must be amazing
