How old and what breed?

No mites, he I a year old, his crop is soft and he has food and water in it He has pooped and it is normal. He is resting in a box in the house and has access to food and water. I gave him electro-light water to.

Update , now he is sort of shivering ! Help

My silky rooster is acting weak, closing his eyes and acting off-balance. We think he may be dehydrated and we gave him water with honey. He drank a lot of water but then he started to drool a little. It seems to have stopped but now he is closing his eyes a lot and acting lethargic. Please help...

How long has this been happening ? She sounds broody to me. If she is egg bound she will act lethargic , walk like a penguin (squat and waddle), and probably won’t eat or drink .

I’d love to see the winning pictures, where can I find them?

Use room temperature or warm wax, not hot. Do not wash the egg or scrape the stuff because you’re at the risk of washing off the bloom.

(Non Frizzle)Hay hay is having a bad molt 😬. Idk if you can see this in the picture but her but and belly are bare!

Any type of contest, so yes.🙂

Congratulations on the first egg ! You can try putting fake eggs or golf balls in the nesting boxes to show them what to do.

Americana hen. Next hunt: any contest winning poultry.

Also see if you can lubricant the area to help the egg. Is your hen weak, panting, or walking at all ?

Bath her in Epsom salts and warm water, hold a warm washcloth against her belly. Try to relax her so that the egg will come out, how old is she? I don’t know what to do if the pelvic bones haven’t moved but try these things to see if they work.

When are the winners being announced?

Chickens with my goats Billy(RIP💔) and lavender.

Midnight dust bathing! Next hunt: any poultry sitting on eggs.

If she is chirping and alert and pooping normally then I wouldn’t be too worried but watching her is a good idea if you think something is wrong. You can watch to see if her crop empties out overnight. Chickens with sour crop often also emit a vomit smell. I am sorry about the hen you lost :hugs.
