    Worms?

    Update: (I want to do it earlier but I need to wait for my parents to be back from a trip so I can do it with 2 people.) Today I have drained 2 35cc syringes of clear yellow fluid from her belly, then let her stand and walk around as the fluid continues dripping, it drips even more than what I...

    Worms?

    I checked her crop in the morning and it's empty. She has started gasping a little since Sunday, I can hear wheezing as she breaths, I noticed she had runny nose at Sunday night. I gave her vetRx on Monday and she felt better, the wheezing is gone, but she still gasps slightly. I think she...

    Worms?

    I don't feel anything in her crop. Her abdomen is always fat, if there is fluid in there, it is the same as the size from 2 weeks ago and it didn't get worse. Is she sneezing at 0:15 ?

    Worms?

    Yes, it is like hoarse, and her voice is very tiny. When she is sitting down resting she's breathing heavier than the other hen. I think it might be respiratory illness. I've order Vetrx see if that helps.

    Worms?

    Update: She is much better now. I have been giving her Nutri-Drench Poultry. She drinks and eats normally and has gained some weight back. But now she has lost her voice, everything else seems fine.

    Worms?

    I notice that she is shaking her head from time to time when she is sitting down and resting at day time. Could that possibly be a sign of having gapeworms? At night she is just quietly sleepy without shaking head.

    Worms?

    I think she was kinda overweight, but she had been eating the same and getting the same exercise as the other one. I have been mostly giving them uncooked rice for treat, a little in the morning and afternoon.

    Worms?

    She has better energy today. Her comb has a healthier color. She is eating some layer feed by herself. I just give her a little rice and mostly tuna/egg/layer feed mix, she likes it. She walks around sometimes, but sits down most of the time. Her abdomen is always fat, but she has been...

    Worms?

    Thanks Wyorp Rock. I am from bay area, California. Today she didn't drink much water. Her crop is empty in the morning. She always has a fat abdomen, so I can't really tell if it is bloat/swelling. Today I gave her cooked rice and she seemed to like it and ate quite a lot (I used to give her...

    Worms?

    My hen has been dropping watery poop for last 2 weeks. She doesn't walk around too much and losses appetite for chicken feeds and rice, but drinks a lot of water and still goes crazy for meal worm treats . Some spots of her comb also appear to be darker than usual. She is about 4 years old...
