    18 week old Lavender Orphington ~ What's wrong?

    Hello, I put my 18 week old Lavender Orphington Camilla to bed last night in her coop looking peppy as always, and this morning, this is what she looks like. Any idea what might be wrong. She keeps closing her eyes as well. Thank you for any advice. She is the sweetest little thing!

    Easter Egger with laying problems

    Thank you RedDrgn, I ended up taking her to an avian vet, and she was diagnosed with peritonosis. After 24 hours on antibiotics she is doing much better! She is a favorite with the family and I would have hated to lose her!!
