okay! I was finally able to soak him. I did not see anything and I have not done a deworm before (new at this)...I will say, he is seriously sucking down water but i have not seen him eat. Also, he smells...BAD. I cant get the smell out of my nose. Its been like this for 2 weeks now and im...
I cannot see the vent either because of poop...which could be good because hes actually defecating, which I dont think he was the lat few days. I switched over to just straight cold water rather than vitamin water and hes chowing down.

I believe my hen has sour crop. I put her upside down to help and she barfed like I expected. But then HOURS later, I picked her up and you could tell she was gagging so I turned her over and she barfed again..is this normal?
I have a hen who looks awful and up until now, we’ve had a bad luck streak in my flock. I have a water container full of vitamins due to a vitamin deficiency, Corid in another water container as well and now this girl. Her feathers are all kinds of gross, watery stool that’s on her butt...
