    Hen - lethargic, tail down, drinking a lot, refusing food

    Update on Cleo: Something still seems off with her but I hope it's safe to say she's in the clear? I'll still keep a close eye on her. She is mostly her normal self to the point I'd say she is no longer lethargic. When I open the run to let them free range, she nearly plowed me over along with...

    Hen - lethargic, tail down, drinking a lot, refusing food

    I'm going to be giving her some Safeguard Dewormer for goats today. I don't think I should wait on the Valbazen or Equimax in case worms are causing her to be this ill, though my other 19 chickens are fine. Will give her the .23ml per lb of body weight. She's 4.5lbs. So I guess a total of 1ml...

    Hen - lethargic, tail down, drinking a lot, refusing food

    Hi, my girl Cleo was fine this morning. I've got a rooster I've been working into the flock and often the girls who don't like him that much (including Cleo) tend to hang out on the roof of their coop. I don't pay it much mind, as during the day I'll see them walking around with him in the run...
