    Wow! Great information! We’ve been giving her b vitamins - yes we have to syringe them into her mouth. I just read about flushing yesterday. I have Epsom salts - will try that today. Need to get molasses. I will search for how to do it. And we made her a sling yesterday. Need to figure out...

    I they find a small piece of metal (screw, nail, anything shiny) they could eat it. It causes metal toxicity. I'm not an expert, I just read about it myself. I'm trying everything I can find that may be wrong with poor little Betty! I'm hoping this is it - and looking for any information...

    Well, she's still alive. Yesterday she could support her weight with her right leg but had no balance. She's still eating and drinking a little for us. She's a fighter!! Still giving her yogurt and Pedialyte along with her food. If it was Marek's would she still be alive? It's been 4 days.

    I should mention that she does kick her legs around and try to flap her wings. She just cannot stand up. When I pick her up and hold her on her feet her feet are not in the proper position and she cannot support herself. But she can move her legs and wings.

    Thank you! I did bring her inside. I didn’t know if it was respiratory so I got her to drink some water with some Vet RX in it. It said you could rub a little under her wings and when I lifted her wing to do that I noticed she had no feathers under her wings. My husband ran to the store and...

    I still need help! I've gotten her to drink a little water with Vetrx in it, and now pedialite. Don't know what else to do. I could use some advice: What do chickens look like that have mites/lice? Could they need to be wormed? Thanks!

    She will not drink - I just dunked her beak in the water. I tried massaging her crop and after a bit she pecked at me. At least she showed a little spunk.

    I'm examining her closer. Her crop has something in it. She is missing feathers under her wings.

    I'm a newbie. Tonight I went out to close the hen house up and one chicken was laying on her side and the others were walking on her. Butt is clear. Help!
