    Unwell chicken

    We have a small problem, the other hen (ostrich) who wasn’t pecking paulo has now started. She doesn’t chase after her like the other did, however when in close proximity, she pecks her quite hard and paulo freezes. Her comb is still pale, but I figured with time as she grows stronger, it will...

    Brilliant, thank you. She’s outside now in her cage (in the shade,) but I’m going to bring her in for tonight and a bit of tomorrow morning and see how she is again. Thank you again for the great advice ahha :)

    I have put the aggressive hen in the cage, she seems very stressed and keeps poking her head out. Going to leave her in there this afternoon while I clean their coop. I’ll keep taking her out and testing how she is afterwards. As I said, she seems extremely stressed :(

    Unwell chicken

    Already started, thank you! She seems to be improving :) After days of massaging her crop and syringing her food and water every hour, she’s doing so much better!!! We are all amazed at how she’s bounced back, we were all convinced we didn’t catch the worms and sour crop fast enough and she...

    Thankfully she seems to be drinking the syringed water from her beak if I pop a little bit on the end! Thank you for the link though, will definitely do that if she stops drinking the water.

    Yep! They have really flourished and this is the first problem we have had :( thank you for your help! She won’t let me pop her head up so she can breathe better :( that seems to be a problem, she’s retracted her neck and is stood with her eyes closed.

    Unwell chicken

    My three hens are all 2 and a half years and haven’t laid in months. This one (paulo) probably laid three months ago. I feed them a mix of layers pellets, mash, corn, crushed oyster shells and then occasionally crushed egg shells added and eggs in different forms. The three hens have thrived...

    Unwell chicken

    Hi! Thank you!! I thought it would be sour crop, but anything I tried to feed her she would cough on. I will have a look at the link you’ve sent. Thank you!!!

    Help!! Chicken close to death :(

    Hi, I’ve just joined this forum and I am very worried about my hen. Firstly, over the last few days her comb has become pale, she hasn’t eaten or drank, she won’t walk or move and her crop is puffed out but not full of food. I tried massaging it, she let out a few stinky burps but still...
