    Help! Chicken sick and I don’t know what’s is wrong

    Yes she is walking around and generally being curious the only difference is no eating. The dumor is a crumble feed. Do you think I should continue to keep her separated or would it be best to put her back out with the hens? Update: as of a few minutes ago this is what her poop looks like (...
