    Thanks!!! It doesn't have alcohol, but based on the last 3 days, I am throwing it in the garbage... not worth the calories.

    I make my own apple cider. Is it safe to give Lucy the pulp that's left over from making the cider? Thanks!

    Great!! I wasn't sure about the dose, so I only gave her half a pill, since she had such a rough 2 days, I didn't want to put any undo strain on her organs. Now that is back to her old self, I will give her a whole pill with her scrambled eggs for a couple days. Thanks again!

    Wow, thanks again for all the great advice!! Here is a picture of what I found in her coop yesterday. I have 600mg calcium pills with 125 iu of D3. Is that ok to crush up and give to her?

    Thanks for all your wonderful advice... I just bought her grit, ground oyster sells and a probiotic to add to her water. Hopefully she will be feeling better soon. I called our vet today and they are looking for a local poultry vet that will contact me. She is standing in her coop right now...

    Her food bag says that it's a complete food, no oyster or grit needed.

    I will take pictures of her tomorrow and post them. I have not seen a single feather in her coop, so I don't think it's moulting. I did look at her comb this evening, and it still is straight and very red. I know it's difficult to diagnose a sick animal via computer, I really appreciate your...

    She does lay large eggs, usually 60-70 grams. and she did have an 80 gram egg last week. She's not really fat, just plumper that when we rescued her. I took this picture of her yesterday. Does she look fat to you? Thanks again for all your help and advice.

    If she is egg bound, do I need to take her to the vet?
