    Maybe, we have always used pine shavings. She is 5 and never had any issues before. I giggled at calling her a strange chicken lol!

    Super weird hen behavior!!

    As far as I see no she is not bullied. She actually has pecked other birds or started fighting with them.

    Super weird hen behavior!!

    Yes, inside not on the deck. She also did the same thing the other day, but was fine when she came inside the house. No dog involved this time.

    Super weird hen behavior!!

    Not sure if I'm in the right place, but here it goes. I have a Australorp/Black Star mixed hen that has been acting very odd the last few months. I posted about her back in April. Symptoms were, walking slowly, diarrhea, not eating as much as usual. I was so worried that I took her to the...

    HEN IS WALKING, SLOW, NOT HERSELF

    I just wanted to update you on my hen. I ended up bringing her to the vet yesterday. The vet said she is actually a healthy hen. She thinks has a GI infection which can cause the diarrhea and slower walking. They put her on amoxo-clov 125 mgs. She needs to stay away from the other birds the...

    Ok so this morning, my hen isn't eating much and she is making a noise that kinda sound like a low horn sound. I did get antibiotics into her last night and a little tums (she didn't like it much) this morning I only got about half in her. I only have 500mg capsules and break them open to...

    HEN IS WALKING, SLOW, NOT HERSELF

    I'm sorry, I meant I ordered some online a while ago. I got fish amoxicillin. I examined her vent and gently felt her underside and everything felt and looked normal, so I didn't think egg binding was possible. She's asleep in the coop rn. It 11:30 my time. Should I grab her?

    HEN IS WALKING, SLOW, NOT HERSELF

    I am not sure if she's laying or when her last eggs was. She's in the coop with 16 other hens. She was walking around in the yard to day. We have a garden we dump compost into that the birds get into. The weather has been up and down, so it was really cold at the beginning of the week 30's and...
