This is from the article and describes my dying hen. :/ "Nervous signs, weakness, progressive flaccid paralysis of legs, wings then neck, then sudden death. Affected broilers tend to settle with eyes closed when not disturbed." It can be that my cat (I have three) caught a bird and left it...

I still have some of the dry poop (on a cloth outside, which I better throw away actually!!!) of the discharge from the vent of the chicken that died. Would that still work for a fecal test? Can any vet do a fecal test? The other chickens, including the one that didn't feel well the day before...

You are right about the Botulism though!!! I saw a dead rat that wasn't there 4 weeks ago... also a dead gopher yesterday... :( I have to read more about that...

Do you know anything about what I described? Please let me know. I don't think my chickens have parasides... all of their poop is okay now...

We buried her yesterday i big shoebox (3 feet deep) with lots of flowers and her last egg she laid. :( But you are right a necropsy would have been interesting... I think maybe a tiny ornamental gourd and a fe leaves from an egg plant caused all this... I just read it on the net that egg plant...

The discharge was from her vent. My other chicken had the same, when I gave her a bath... I suspect it was from small pieces of leaves of an egg plant ("Chickens can eat them but not green skins which contain solanine as this is toxic to hens. Eggplant: No. They cannot eat the plant, leaves or...

I could find anything about decorative gourds and if they are toxic for chickens...Cucurbita pepo a decorative gourd I have in my garden and I gave them some leaves of my egg plant, which is toxic for then... maybe that's what affected my two hens and killed one of them... I hate myself that I...

I think she didn't have a crop... I checked and everything seemed normal...I couldn't feel an egg either, she laid her last one yesterday...we will bury it with her... :/ Thank you for all your tips, I'll write everything down and see what they suggest i the store...it's a good chicken etc...

She died in my arms in pain this morning...it was a horrible experience not being able to help her...before she had lots of watery yellowish/white discharge that smelled like cheese (we don't give dairy to our chickens)... and is in a box full of flowers now. I will check for mites now. She laid...

I thought they might ate a plant they are not supposed to eat... not sure... please see up-date...cleaning out the entire coop with vinegar today....

I found her with stretched out wings eyes closed still breathing this morning and gave her some water drops with my finger. I rested her head so it is not laying in the wood shavings... she is still breathing and swallowing...Oh I wish I could do more. :/

I always thought the apple cider vinegar would be too strong for them pur? I will do that tomorrow though. Somebody suggested bread crumbs soaked in apple cider vinegar... will try that too tomorrow morning... Good night from CA! Thank you so much for your help everybody!!!

It is night here and it is rather cold and foggy here the past days, I just checked on her she is laying down in a normal way and her body is moving up and down while she breathes calmly. They both pooped just fine (normal dark poop/normal consistency), and laid eggs today. I smelled poop when...

Hi, I'm tying to find out what is wrong with two of my chickens. My Silver Laced Wyandotte looked droopy and tail down yesterday in the evening, seemed she was weak, closing her eyes. I thought she was egg bound and gave her a 20 minute bath with Epson salt and herbs twice yesterday, keeping...
