    Can't stand, walk and swollen back side

    Gave her an Epson salt bath and tried to feel for an egg but didn't feel anything. She did have some yellowish/ white stuff come out.....maybe poop and I gave her some crushed tums in yogurt. She doesn't try to use her legs at all and had to prop her with alot of towels otherwise she falls back...

    Can't stand, walk and swollen back side

    She doesn't appear to be trying. She can't stand or walk. She just falls over and her bottom is swollen and legs and feet are cold

    What kind of calcium supplement do you recommend? We do not have a vet that will look at chickens in my area but I'm willing to try whatever I can here at home. Shes in a homemade sling for now

    Can't stand, walk and swollen back side

    I have an EE that is 10 months old, not laying. Yesterday she was fine and today she can't stand, walk, and she has a swollen back side. Her belly area feels swollen. She has eaten and drank and allows me to move her legs, lay her on her back and never makes a sound...any ideas? Her poop is...

    Water Intake

    I have a sick hen and want to make sure she is getting enough fluids. She isn't drinking or eating on her own and I'm giving her fluids with a syringe but how do I know if I've given her enough?

    Should I attempt to push hard part of the beak back or leave it? Will it fall off? It's just flesh showing where he beak is gone And how do I feed her, I softened oatmeal and she tries to peck at it but can't get any in her mouth

    No idea, my guess is...they were all eating watermelon and maybe when she went to clean her beak it may have gotten caught on something I've been out in the coop/run this morning looking and checking
