    Is this a seizure?

    She went through a hard molt. I heard her screaming a few times a night and noticed that she was weak and eating very little. Brought her in last night and it still happened. Took this video tonight. She goes from sleeping peacefully to screaming then thrashing.

    My First Egg and It's Peeeeeerfect! (with pictures)

    I have 1 Golden Comet, 2 BRs, and 1 BO. I purchased the first three at the January Chicken Swap at 4 weeks old and the BO about a month ago at 3 months old.
