I just got 6mL into her. She’s not trying to get away at all. Just accepted it so she must be near the very end

K thank you! Will do, I have some little syringes for my kids tylenol

I took her off the broody spot yesterday dipped her beak and she went back to the same spot eventually, then this morn when I went out she was off in the corner in the big run with everyone. I moved her to the small chicken run alone, thought it would be good to be out of the coop where the...

Help please, anything I can try? Just gave sugar water. Yesterday I noticed how pale she was. She has been broody for weeks, I forget exactly how long and I just noticed this past week that we have red mites in the coop.
