    Need help my Comet has stopped drinking and eating.

    Hi, I am on day 2 with one comet about 10 months old stopped eating or drinking. She appears to have a crawl full of corn but above that seems to be also a lump. I think she ate something and got it hung. I can massage the corn but the knot is hard. Question, should I try and force water down...

    I do have them in a covered enclosed lot attached to their coop and also an outdoor movable run to graze. Is there any special care for their feet with those feathers? What would you suggest for bedding to keep their indoor coop dry during the winter? Thanks

    Sorry, that would help. We average between 20 and 30 degrees in winter. Sometimes falling to 10 degrees. Not snowy but when we get it it's normally wet and nasty. Thanks
