    Hens or Roos?

    To me they all look like Roos, except the white one in 2nd pic...the black & white may not be so obvious (& I could also be mistaken...) but the tail is like that if a Roo.

    So as of right now, I do not expect I can do anything to help our poor hen. I suspect that she will likely not make it thru the night, as I’m going to quit giving her droppers of antibiotic & probiotics. She’s barely responsive & I feel I’m only prolonging her suffering. That’s not what I want...

    I unfortunately do not have any medications here to help put her out of her misery, nor do I have anything necessary to have tried the removal of fluid via other methods...bcuz this poor girl took this terrible turn while I’ve been pretty busy w/my one-year old son...and I soaked her & worked on...

    Also “Coach 723”...if I got very hardened, not normal poop material out of her is there any possibility (w/how I’ve described her condition) that there’s any further chance it might help to try to soak her & see about getting anymore out tmrw if she makes it thru the night??

    —thank you, that’s informative as well...her kell I’d say is at a zero :( and I’ve been giving her probiotics w/her water I’m giving her via dropper, as well as antioniotics...I’m afraid she might not make it thru the night...I just don’t know

    —very helpful even tho no good news for her :( but I believe ur referring to her breast-area bone when I say keel bone? Is that correct? Sorry I’m so new to this, I’ve mostly got experience w/exotics & am fairly new to the ranch...but this poor chicken is sure in trouble. So I’m trying to learn...
