Definitely not normal... Can you take her to a vet?
If I need to then that's what I will do. The poop seems to be less watery after 3 days of corid but it was still not a solid poo. I started her again on .9ml of safeguard this morning. If I don't notice any change by Saturday I could take her in.Definitely not normal... Can you take her to a vet?

I use a digital fishing scale to weigh the chicken in a bucket, then subtract the weight of the bucket. She was over 5lbs when I got her and Sunday she was 3.9. I will weigh her again tonight.
Quote: 5 pounds (2268 grams) to 3.9 pounds (1724 grams) is a pretty big loss.

Most people won't until it's way too late.When you look at her she doesn't look sick. I don't see any difference in weight.
She is a Gold Comet, and as far as I know she is about 9 months old - I got her mid-July and she laid an egg a week later. Maybe she is older and it was just stress/shock and had already been laying?@Kelli Michele , your hen should probably weight about 6 pounds by now. @11mini , I don't think you mentioned the age or breed of your hen, or did you?
