I am still having trouble with this chicken. She sits on her haunches all the time. She will get up and walk around with the chickens but her legs seem weak. Not limping when walking but walking slow. If she tries to run she will limp a little. This has been going on a for several months...
I have a chicken that is about 3 years old and she's been sitting back on her haunches.A lot lately. She's eating fine walking fine and seems to be doing okay other than that. It's just like she is a little weak or tired. I have treated her with ivermectin pour on. A few drops to the back of...
I know there are a lot of threads about bumblefoot but I cannot get this one to heal. I have a hen that is a little over a year old. She got bumblefoot in both feet. I started soaking and trying to get out a ke.rnel several months ago. There was never a kernel that I could find but always...

I have a couple leg horns 3yrs old that lay consistent soft eggs with intermittent normal eggs. One has developed a very firm belly and white diarrhea. I was able to get her feeling better with antibiotics but she is starting to get a hard belly and not feel well again after several weeks. We...
I have a white leghorn that lays soft or thin shelled eggs frequently. She's almost 3. She only layed really good eggsfor the first year or so. My other 2 were having the same problem and now are not laying at all. I have tried oyster shell in the food, on the ground, in bowls next to the...
I have had chickens for about 2 years now and I am starting to get frustrated. I feel like I deal with one sickness after another. I have chickens laying soft eggs and have for a long time. I have tried several types of layer feed. They are all types and ages. I put oyster shell in their...
I have a chicken that I have had for a year. I am not sure how old she is because she was given to me by someone who's chickens were all killed by a predator but her. She did not know how old she was. May be as old as 4. She was still laying several eggs a week up until she started acting...
i have 3 leghrns and several other hens. 2 of my leghorns are laying consistently soft or thin shelled eggs. They are eating layer feed, and they free range quite a bit right now. They have access to oyster shell all the time. It has been quite hot here so I am not sure if that coul be a...
I have a leg horn that got sick and I had to keep her isolated for several days. She is doing better now but several of the other chickens are being terrible to her. They have a coop with top and bottom levels and a decent size run. I have 9 chickens. They are out of the run when I am home...
I have a hen that has watery undigested stools and she has been laying eggs that are cracked but not broken. She acts fine and eats fine. She is running around like normal. I wormed them a couple weeks ago with ivermectin drops on her neck because another one of my chickens had round worms...

I have another chicken with sour crop. She does not feel impacted but feels like a water balloon and I can smell odor from her beak. I have had several chickens with crop problems and have not had any luck with treatment. The last one i feel was more impacted and I could not get her well...
I have a hen that sounds like she has fluid in her throat. She's panting ( all my hens are panting right now it's 100 degrees) because it's so hot and I can hear rattling in her throat. Is something wrong with her crop causing liquid in her throat? Sometimes when I pick her up it's like it...
I have a 18ish week old sex link that seems to be waking funny. Seems a little weak or off balance. She keeps up, is eating really well and drinking. If she stands too long she will slowly lay down. The others seem fine. I only noticed it recently but unsure how long its been going on...
Any guess on if this is a hen or a rooster? I think this one is about 9 to 10 weeks old. The lady I got it from a couple weeks ago thought it was a hen but I am starting to wonder. Because it was a couple weeks ago I know it could be hard to tell which it was when I got it. She told me it was...
I think this one is about 9 to 10 weeks old. The last I got it from a couple weeks ago thought it was a hen but I am starting to wonder. Because it was a couple weeks ago I know it can be hard to tell. She told me it was a Maran.
