    Gurgling hen - please help!

    She's eating again!! Tried to tempt her with some porridge and she loved it! The gurgling noise has gone for the moment too but will keep an eye on her. She even walked over when i went to the feed bins, which is a great improvement from yesterday. ........

    When I went to let her out this morning she was breathing fine! But she went straight for the water and then the gurgling sound came back....? She still hasn't eaten anything although she did attempt to eat some grass this morning. She's still getting the Baytril in her water but am going to...

    Could it be different as I am in the UK? The label is just a print out of basic info i.e. my address and animals details then the vets name and address and name of the drug and how to administer it (as quoted earlier)...

I'm using the liquid...

    Thanks for your reply. Meant to say crop not croup. I felt it and gently pressed it but it didn't feel like there was anything inside at all. Have just spoken to neighbours who were looking after the girls and they said it was Monday morning that they first noticed anything was up with her.

Before I left on Friday she was her usual self - very confident, definately the boss and always liked to eat. Today however, i haven't seen her eat at all...
