    Lethargic Hen Not Eating, Laying, and has Maggots in Feathers

    Hi DaisyBuff, Flystrike seems to be a nasty thing for the hen. Please don't give up try your best to remove them all from under the skin and all your effort will not be wasted. You will be satisfied when your hen looks healthy again.🙏

She was fine and when I saw her she was keeping all chicks warm during the day...

    Hatching baby chicks

    Should just leave the eggs alone and count them each day. When she has laid all the eggs she will start sitting on them. After 21 days the eggs should all hatch and maybe one or two which may not hatch so you can throw away.
