Thanks all! I was just hoping to use something out of it. We found her within an hour of dying. We gave them scratch around 7 and she was alive but not going after scratch so I put her up to roost, came back out at 8 to lock up and she was dead on the floor. Poor girl.
Hello all, we lost a chicken this weekend out of no where and everyone else is acting fine. We saw her when we came out to lock everyone up for the night. No sign of illness except a pale comb and dirty nostrils everything else seemed normal. My question is, we wrapped her and threw her in the...
I thought about that but she's being a weirdo and only eating the egg off my finger as I squirter it out of a syringe. She wint dip her beak and drink it. But we did cook an egg and she ate that so maybe I'll try to add wet feed to the cooked egg then switch it to dry
Still holding an eye shut, still lethargic. Started corid yesterday. Won't eat her feed but will chow on some eggs and worms. Won't really drink unless we dip her beak then she fights it anyways.
Started corid yesterday. She only will eat worms and eggs. Isn't really drinking. Won't eat her feed or wet feed. Still lethargic. Feet are still cool. She is gobbling down egg though?
There hasn't been any real changes. We're noticing she will only eat mealworms and egg.
This is her and her poop today started corid yesterday just in case.
That makes sense to me. Her feet were also notably cold especially compared to the others. She was basically lifeless when I found her. Today she is up chirping and moving around.
I am starting to think it was heat and she wasn't eating and maybe drinking enough. She has perked up a lot today fter bringing her inside. We gave her electrolytes and some wet feed. We're gonna try the corid for everyone as preventative in case it is coccidiosis or something
She's sleeping now and has been inside for about an hour and a half. She's in a large bin like a waterer for farm animals. Wood shavings and her food and water and grit. It's probably at least 75 in that room.
