Looks like a hen. She's gorgeous :love

Heartbreaking. I'm so sorry for your loss :( may she rest in peace

Blue Orpington maybe?

Update: I gave her some raw egg yesterday which she seemed to enjoy, as well as probiotics and her anti inflammatory the vet prescribed. I also put the coccidiosis treatment in her water and in the other silkies water too. Is there anything else I should be doing? I was giving her a fuss...

Here are the pictures, as promised

Thanks so much everyone for the helpful responses. I did take some pictures of the blood yesterday to show to the vet, so I'll attach them in a bit. I did get a new hen towards the end of December, so that could be a factor. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find any avian vets anywhere near...

Thank you. I shouldn't have got my hopes up and expected them all to hatch. Shall I give it to around day 25 or so in the incubator do you think?

Nice, nearly lockdown for you! :D No, I haven't tried the float test yet. I might try that later or tomorrow if I don't see any pips. That red circular thing is very worrying though, does anyone know what it is/what it means?
