    She won’t drink any electrolytes, she’s in the house and I’ll try the mashed food and cooked eggs. I cleaned it and used scarlet spray but I’m going to change it over to the vetreicyn. She’s pooping and can’t stand to well i believe her leg got injured.

    Help injured girl

    My flock got attacked by a dog yesterday and one of my girls got beat up badly. I brought her in and cleaned her up and put some scarlet spray on her. She’s not eating or drinking and I gave her a very small baby aspirin for her pain. What can I do to get her eating and drinking….no egg today...

    Thin egg shells (NOT soft shell)

    Hi, what if you don’t know who it is?? I’m having the same issue but all my girls are like that with the shells and now they are breaking them, not eating all the shells but I’m so lost. I have had chickens for years and this is the 1st time I’ve had issues like this.
