Not really, she is only like 4. But, shes been getting better now. I started giving her gatorade in her water for electrolytes, giving her more energy, and now she has the desire to eat and drink again. She is awake more frequently and her heavy breathing has stopped. I'm still not sure what's...

She seems to have gotten more tired and her breathing is heavier. She keeps her eyes closed a lot and only opens them when she is caught off guard. I try to feed her and give her water with ACV, but she twists her neck because she doesn't want to drink. I'm not sure what to do!

My hen has been acting strange for a few days, she has trouble walking, doesn't want to eat or drink by herself, hasn't laid eggd, etc. I checked for symptoms of Marek's and she doesn't seem to have it, as its been a few days since shes acting up. I have been feeding her yogurt with crushed up...

I occasionally feed her oyster shells and she has been wormed. I do not feed her layer feed.

My blue lace hen laid 2 soft shelled eggs in the same spot today. I came back home and saw them and then saw her tail feathers limping down, which is a sign of something wrong. I know that is normal for a soft shell egg, but it's not normal to see droopy tail feathers. Whats wrong and what...

I think my hen has sour crop, she has been lethargic and only walking around, not digging up dirt or scratching around. She laid a pale egg the other day and now her crop is squishy and full, and I checked in the morning and it was still full. How do I help cure it?

I don't think it is a big issue, but my rhode island rooster gets a little bit of purple every so often. It just comes and goes, it will be purple for 2 hours or so and go away. He is the healthiest bird I have ever seen and never has had any sickness so I don't think it is a big problem, but...

I need help soon, she is at a horrible point right now and I am not sure what to do. She barely eats and drinks, but she still does. She has heavy breathing and an inflated abdomen, it feels like a water balloon. She can't get up at all and needs her wings to balance herself. She doesn't have...

My Rhode Island Red Hen hasn't drank anything yesterday, except for a tiny bit of water, and had a tiny bit of grain, even though she has accessibility to water and food. Also, this really needs to be answered, I'm not sure if my hen has gapeworms or a respiratory illness, she stretches out her...

I'm pretty sure she is not drinking or eating because she is struggling to breath. She used to eat all the time and her crop would always be full, but now it is always empty. Today she had barely anything. Do you know how to solve respiratory problems? I don't want to lose my beloved hen. The...

I haven't seen any broken eggs, and I'm starting to think that it is not worms. I'm going to do a cotton swab test on her throat for gapeworms. I think she has respiratory illness because she shakes her head, reaches her neck out, and the whole day has been sitting in one spot. I'm really...

The hen is about 9 months old, and ever since we got her she has only laid one egg, and it was last sunday. Her lower belly does seem full and a little like it has any liquid or food in it. We haven't wormed her yet, I'm not sure how to. Also, she constantly is having diarrhea and I think she is...

Thanks for the help! I separated her for an hour, let her out, and now they all get along! They all sleep together, eat together, and play together.

She lives with another Australorp that is only a little older than her and with a murran which is a lot younger than her. The murran doesn't hurt her though, its the other Australorp. Their percent of protein is 20%

My rhode island red hen has struggle breathing at times. She also constantly has a lot of poop stuck to her bottom feathers, and has diarrhea. I think she is sick and I don't no how to treat it. It is getting worse and I am worried. Any help?

She is only about 15 weeks old.

My little Austrolorp pullet has missing feathers on her back in between her wings. I'm thinking that a rooster from the place we bought her bit her and tore out feathers, but I'm not 100% sure. Also, the other pullets she lives with peck at her bald spot that is all beaten up with the missing...

Thanks for the help, I'm going to check on her tomorrow.

My Rhode Island Red hen has a pretty big crop and a strangely deep voice, but my other Rhode Island Red hen has a high pitched normal chirp or "voice." Is this normal or do I need to fix something?
