    Hen Tail Tucked?

    This girl is about 2 years old and I noticed she has her tail tucked for the last 3 days. We felt her belly, rear, and vent. Everything seems ok.

    Hen standing/acting strangely

    I am going to examine her tonight, but does her stance indicate anything? She has some fecal caking and is standing still a lot and staying away from the others.

    Hen wheezing/making noise when breathing

    Hi, I have a hen who, for the second time was making a noise when breathing. It’s sort of a squawking sound, like her voice, but she’s gasping or panting. Her breathing is definitely labored. The first time she stopped by the time we got her settled in the garage. The air conditioning was on...
