Sadly she passed away a few days later- The vet gave her treatment, but it didn't help. We still don't know what caused it.

I think that it is sour crop. She has a liquid filled crop and the head jerking with vomiting. I found a vet who will treat chickens- we are going today.

Thank you, I would have no idea about how to help her without this forum. It helped me help my eggbound hen pass her egg, and helped me learn about chickens in the first place. Jet's poop is normal again apart from a bit of mucus-like stuff in it. She's eating more; lettuce and grain as well as...

I gave her some coconut oil, and I have been hearing a gurgling type noise from her. It's like if a human has an upset stomach, or is hungry. SH eis now eating lettuces as well as her normal foods.

Okay, thanks. Which is better?

I don't have those particular brands at my supermarket, but here are a few things that I found online- what do you think will work?

I have done a look around her belly area and there is no fluid there like a ‘water balloon’; a description of this in some research I have done. What else could it be? She is eating. But, the poop white is sticky, kind of like mucus. There are some seeds in her poo that aren’t really broken...

Thankyou for helping me understand, I don’t have any coconut oil but will get some hopefully. Jet is still vomiting but her poop is getting closer to normal. Yesterday she didn’t have much of an appetite, so I made a blended baby food type thing to hand feed her. She likes that. She seems less...

No I don’t have any vitamins- I’m in Australia, and it’s grand final weekend for football; so vets are closed and so are most shops. I could look for a pet shop that may have some? Her crop is soft and full but I’m not sure if it’s puffy. The chickens aren’t molting, they finished about a month...

Update today: She is vomiting still, the poop situation is better. She is closing her eyes a lot and I have to fluff her feathers to motivate her to eat. I have been giving her water in between food to keep it down- the food isn’t vomited up at all. (Ps: don’t mind me saying he; sometimes I...

@Eggcessive I fed him what you recommended and added an all-round medicine to his water(all I had access to as today is a public holiday where I am). He is eating all of it and loves it!! He has started pooping runnier poop, as well as not vomiting. I gave him a bath as well to clean his really...

Thankyou, I will do that. She hasn’t been laying this year, by the way.

Here are some images of him, the vomit and the poop. I didn’t know where else to post it (sorry!) Jet the sick chicken by MissAdelaide posted Sep 28, 2019 at 8:28 AMSick chicken pic #2 by MissAdelaide posted Sep 28, 2019 at 8:28 AMSick chicken pic 3 by MissAdelaide posted Sep 28, 2019 at 8:28 AM

Hello, My hen, jet, is sick. She has been a bit sick for the past few weeks and I have been keeping an eye on her. Yesterday we brought her into our old laundry, because she is getting worse. It has towels, food and water, a heater to keep it warm, a steamer/humidifier and the fan is going for...
