Have a barred rock who just isn't thriving. I noticed a lump near her belly area. I'm not sure what it is or if this is causing her to not grow. She is now about 1/2 the size of our other barred that is the same age. I have been giving her probiotics and electrolytes. She eats a little and drinks, her vent isn't blocked
I've mashed up hardboiled eggs and mixed in with the feed.
Question is anyone know what this lump is and is there anything else I can try? We already lost 1 soon after we got them and i'm hoping not to lose another. Our 1st time with chicks we had 0 problems this time nothing but!
I'm hoping this pic loads, I tried to get a good pic, her feathers are wet from me soaking her bum she had poop stuck to her(but not blocking the vent)
