    Standing Still, Puffed Up, Closing Eyes

    UPDATE: My hen is completely back to normal! Other than the Epsom salt bath, some calcium, and TLC, I didn't do anything special. I'm wondering if she ate something bad while free ranging in the back yard and then needed a little help dispelling it? (not sure if that is something that...

    Thank you so much for all your insights and information! I can not afford to go to a vet, but in the meantime my girl seems to be more like herself. There doesn't appear to be any more of that runny green poop in the run, and she is eating. She even pecked at one of my other girls who is...

    Standing Still, Puffed Up, Closing Eyes

    My hen was fine this morning, free ranging and having a good time. For the past few hours she has been all puffed up, standing still, and closing her eyes periodically. When I first noticed her, she was standing in the middle of the run and wasn't moving. I put dried worms out and while...
