    wheezing silkie hen

    I gave her some olive oil and bread and massaged her crop. it felt soft but not full. from what I've seen, her nostrils are clear but she's not breathing through her nose.

    lethargic, skinny hen.

    definitely not broody, this is the second time this has happened. last time i gave her a salt bath and massaged her crop. i then moved her inside for some warmth. the next morning she was fine! but it is more severe this time.

    lethargic, skinny hen.

    my hen, which i bought at adult age about a year ago, has not been moving, and is reluctant to get out of the coop. the goose had escaped their area and went to the chickens, i caught one of the goose pecking and eating her tail feathers, she still has a good amount but not many. she didnt move...

    Chick yells when poops

    Sick hen - now maggots in her poop! Anything that can be done?

    are you SURE they are maggots? or are they worms? have you wormed your chickens? you can find some dewormers online but you must find out which type of worm it is! worm her anyways (and the rest of the flock). you should be worming them regularly.

    An owie

    this has never happened to me before, so i am no profesional. i think she may have trouble eating! (depending on how much has been snapped off) could you send photos? how did this happen? you will have to give her some finer foods to eat as she may struggle!
