What can cause a hen to be lethargic and just be by the water sipping all day?

 

[chickflick]

I don't know. How is the hen doing today?

 

[Dreamzchaser]

She is OK. Still keeping to herself. I touched her between the legs and feels bloated compared to the others. But she is eating.

On the other hand, I had to get d-con mice bait boxes because saw about 6 mice at night roaming in their yard. Hoping these knuckleheads do not destroy the box to get to the candy,lol

@Sally PB @troyer where can i find a grain mill. Bought barley, millet, spelt, and wheat to make Ezequiel bread at the Amish store in Freemont but they didn't had mills.

I have ground oatmeal in my blender. I bought a used Champion juicer that had a grain mill attachment, and that's what I use for rice. Those are the only two I've done.

Why mill the rice?
Before or after cooking?
