I watched a video on how to empty it. She vomited a TON of nastiness. She ate some egg and yogurt and has been drinking a lot. I don't think she's had much of anything for 2 days, so I hope she didn't over do it. She still looks rough, so I'm hoping tomorrow is better!

Unfortunately not. The local vets won't treat a chicken.

Thank you. As an update this morning, she seems worse. She is refusing to drink. I tried giving her some electrolytes by syringe, even just a tiny bit and she vomits it. In fact, she vomits every time I pick her up, even if very gently. It is watery and brownish. It smells funky. I checked her...

They eat Purina layer feed and have oyster shell supplement. While I appreciate the nutrition advice the rest of the flock is healthy and has hard shelled eggs. I will give her calcium because there is some reason she continues to lay weak shells and an Epsom salts bath.

All of the other hens have super hard shells. And really they don’t have scratch always, but definitely daily. I keep them closed up in the morning to ensure they are eating their feed first. Also she is one of the middle to top of the pecking order, so isn’t lacking. I don’t think it’s her...

She just pooped. It’s mostly white, and very watery.

She has free access to seeds and scratch and feed, as well as whatever else she scratches up during the day. Is there something wrong with that diet? Also, I looked up "keel" and i can feel it, she feels thin to me.

1. She is 2. 2. She doesn't seem interested in drinking. I found her sitting alone kind of hunched over in the run, not near food or water. 3. I just checked and there is a wet spot on the towel under her which could be poop, but not sure. I would think probably it is. So likely very watery...

Sorry for the double reply. I was trying to get everyone and think I duplicated.

I’m not sure when she last layed because I have 3 like her in a mixed flock. One of them lays very thin shelled eggs, so maybe her? I don’t know what a keel is. I suppose an egg could have broken inside her?

She is 2 years old.

I’m not sure. I have 3 Isa browns in a mixed flock of 15, so not sure which is laying. One of them has been laying eggs with super thin shells - so thin either they break in the box or when I pick them up. Maybe it’s her? That has been going on for a while now, I’ve just now noticed she is sick...

Hi, I went out to check my flock and one of my girls is ailing. Droopy comb, droopy tail and is drooling. I scrambled an egg for her but she doesn’t seem interested. Her crop is a little boggy, not firm. She also feels light weight. Any ideas on how to help her? The rest of the girls seem fine...
