    Chickens dying of old age or illness?

    My family member bought like 10 chickens from some guy online. They were delivered to us and they were all low energy, pale a droopy combs. There are four left and this is the condition they’re in right now. The rest of them died. Is this an illness I can treat or did we get old dying hens? The...

    We have a 4 year old hen. We just lost one chicken that slowly lost weight and eventually stopped eating all together and I had to put her down. We tried everything short of the vet to save her... Cleaning coop, moving coop, changing food, draining for sour crop (which she had before and...

    PLEASE HELP!! I can't tell what's wrong

    Hi, one of my chickens (3yr old red sex link), Bertha, is not doing well at all. She has laid maybe two eggs in the past year, but I was not too worried about that because her health hasn't suffered until now & she's always been one of my strongest (& one of the two alphas of our small flock of...

    Hen very lethargic, pale droopy comb, etc.

    Hi all, trying to get some insight on what to do from here. We have a hen who is about 2 1/2 years old and has always been super sweet and gets along with all her coop-mates. About a week ago she stopped roosting and was sleeping on the ground which caused us to examine her. We found two old...

    Odd post-laying behaviour in Hen could it be sign of trauma/illness? Droopy and pale comb.

    Hi everyone, My 30 week old leghorn girl has been exhibiting some odd behaviour after her last few lays and this paired with her droopy and paler than normal comb has me worried it might be an underlying problem. She'll come out from laying (normally 10-15 minutes after being in the nest) and...

    Leghorn hen is sick?

    Today I noticed one of my brown leghorns acting pretty out of it today. She’s been slouching a bit, and overall acting as if something was wrong. I noticed her comb being a bit more droopy than usual, and it appears to be turning black. Her droppings are appearing as runny and a bit green. I’m...

    Droopy comb and not roosting, laying or dusting...

    Hi there! Long-time reader, first time poster. I'm a bit concerned, as my chicken is acting strange and I can't seem to find any other similar instances of her behavior anywhere. She was a little lethargic, so I took her to the vet about three weeks ago. She had a lot of bacteria in her...
