    Droopy, tucked tail, and sleepy eyes,

    I haven’t gotten an egg from any of my 25 girls in over a month. Some went through a pretty heavy molt, but I just don’t think they’re getting enough sun for eggs. They eat a 21% protein layer feed.

    Droopy, tucked tail, and sleepy eyes,

    A few of my girls seem to be acting weird. Sleepy eyes, huddled down position, then a weird stretched out position when standing. They are tucking their tails, and seem a bit wobbly.

    Rescue chickens with red, swollen bottoms. Pleas help!

    I have some rescue chickens, a couple of which seem to have red, swollen, bald bums. I noticed watery stool. They eat and drink just fine.
