    Calcium/magnesium ok

    Thank you! I can feel her keel bone, but it's not prominent. Doesn't seem to be fat between her legs, but maybe. Thanks again, that's really helpful

    She just passed a really big normal looking poop.

    Also, her poop is watery. I can't check for an egg internally

    Ok. She's an English Orp, so extremely fluffy. How do I check for overweight?

    I gave her an egg and she ate it all. Also gave her water, but she ignored it. She lives in a pen with 2 other pullets and I've gotten 1 to 2 edges per day starting last week, so if she's laying, she just started. Should I add acv to her water?

    She's resting and calmer. It's not too hot in our house, about 65 degrees Fahrenheit

    I just noticed this afternoon that she was not right. Even this morning she was fine. They get nutrena featherfixer and free choice oyster shells. Also veg scraps occasionally. Scratch grains in small amounts and mixed with meal worms. Our predators are very aggressive, so no free range...

    She's calm and is just resting in the bathroom. Is there anything else I should do?

    She had a lot of poo on her bottom that I cleaned off.

    I'm really guessing. I just can't think what else could be wrong. She's standing hunched, but eating and drinking ok. Had a hard time getting back into the coop and I put her on the roost, but she was wobbly

    Thank you! I gave her some.

    Thank you! I've got her in an Epsom salt bath and just gave her the cal/mag and will get the cal citrate tomorrow. She's handling her bath quite well
