Thank you for the replies. I have her in a box in the house with us (hay in bottom). I put some honey in her water, spritzed her with rescue remedy, and put in some food. I'm sure my husband will be holding her in a minute...

Hi, Our small flock (5) was attacked this morning by a dog (we think, coyote, maybe). Two dead, one missing... The are two remaining. One seems fine, but the other appears to be in shock. She's not standing and just keeps wanting to close her eyes. We put her down next to the other hen and...

Day 2: Her "ears" and comb are looking much better, yesterday her ears were white. She's breathing much much better and looking "perkier". She's still not standing and doesn't want to eat, but we've managed to get a bit of fluids (pediolite), multi-B's, and more hypericum homeopathic. We...

well... she passed her egg on her own, so that's a positive. She's in a box right by the couch. We fed her some water/electrolytes/vitamins and homeopathic (someone on BYC mentioned for mereks) and she's pretty quiet. Still can't stand, but not getting worse ?...no appetite etc. The fluid's...

Vitamin B what? (there are a lot of them). We have agrilabs vitamins and electrolytes plus with B-12. Would that work? If not where do you get what you are speaking about ? Thanks!

thanks I'll try that. She appears to be foaming at the mouth a bit and now it's in her eyes. Wondering if she could have mareks or a venomous bite of some sort.? We brought her inside and cooled her off but she's not getting any more stable (able to stand). Her legs just splay out behind...

She's still not standing, curls her toes and just plops. We brought her inside to cool her off. She seems to be "wheezing" a bit but just quietly. No oddly colored eyes or anything. Doesn't want to eat or drink. She has an egg she hasn't laid yet...not sure if we should do anything about...

Hi My easter egger is not doing well. She was fine last night and this morning, but as the heat has climbed she has lost her ability to stand. She wobbles and just plops down almost onto her face/beak. She's not interested in drinking and is panting pretty hard. It's currently 104 degrees...

Thank you ALL for your replies btw ) Very cool folks you all are. Matt, if you lived around the corner, that roo would be there already. I definitely can get with the "don't tell me" thing. But honestly, I'd prefer to find it a home. My Lead Hen is really really mad at me right now. She...

Thanks Matt, Not really up for the chicken pot pie. We are looking to produce eggs, no baby chicks, so keeping it as the "flock rooster" won't help. Guess giving it away comes up next I know just how popular (not) roosters are.

uh, thanks?!?! sigh, well I do appreciate the breed name..lol when do Roosters start making things "fertile"...what age?

Hi A new hen(?) we picked up has started climbing on top of our laying hens and pecking at them. We don't know if we have a rooster in the making or a very dominant hen. We have NO interest in having a rooster, so what to do about that (please options that don't include ME culling it, I'm too...
