Hello Everyone - I just returned from an appointment with the vet concerning my Road Island Red hen who looked poorly last Friday. After her exam, she felt, due to fluid in her chest, and lumps in her chest area that the hen had cancer and I should put her down. Four years ago, I purchased 12...

Another tonight which makes 2. Kind of worried somewhat.

They have about 8 feet right now. A new addition is being added that will triple their space.

Thank you for the feeding tip. I will adjust starting tomorrow. I have 12 chickens not 24. My hens are going to be 1 yr old in April. Yes, they are laying average of 10 a day. The hens that have this red area have lost the head feather and their skin is the same red color.

Yes - it is very “squishy”.

I have 12 hens

Their diet is: Daily Organic pellets - 16 oz Organic Scratch - 16 oz 16 ounces mealworms 1/2 head of Lettus 4 pieces of bread Fresh water daily Very worried about them.

Is this Vent Gleet?
