    What’s wrong with my chicken?

    No moldy feed, and I was pondering if she could have gotten into a plant or something but there’s nothing I’m aware of. No one else is behaving oddly and the flock has roamed the property for a long time. I’d assume if there was something that would make them sick, I’d have witnessed it before...

    What’s wrong with my chicken?

    Aww man! She gobbled up meal worms and just pecks at scrambled eggs. She’s also drinking. She’s in the screen porch. At times she’ll pick her head up for a while, but then it’ll drop again, and her wings are hanging down, but she is walking around.

    What’s wrong with my chicken?

    I went and got some Corid. Does anyone know if I can give the sick gal an individual dose in addition to treating the entire flock and what the dosage is?

    What’s wrong with my chicken?

    I don’t have any on hand but I’ll run into the local hardware store and pick some up. I don’t have a poop sample. The flock free ranges all day.

    What’s wrong with my chicken?

    No heat.... been in the 60’s. She is eating and drinking now in the house so we’re snuggling her and giving her vitamins and electrolytes with some scrambled eggs. Hoping she just got in a scuttle and is gonna mend up with some rest.

    What’s wrong with my chicken?

    Hi, I got home from work and found one of my babies off all by herself acting very odd. She’s having trouble holding her head up. She hatched early February so she’s about 4 1/2 months old. She appears otherwise healthy, and is content sitting on our laps snuggling. Would this be wry neck? Or...

    Getting real close... most of the shell is easily releasing from the membrane and I found 2 little spots of blood yet but most is looking good. Remoistened, and put back in. Hoping for a third hatch tonight yet!
