    My hen is not moving

    My hen, 2 1/2 year old olive egger is not moving the last 2 days she was having a hard time balancing on their roost bar but she was still walking around just acting slow. My flock is molting and all of them are dropping feathers except for her. Today I found her laying on the floor of the coop...

    Chicken lethargic and hiding? :(

    My chicken Peperomia is around 2 years old. Today she has started acting lethargic, swaying her head and hiding. She refuses to eat or drink. I spoon fed her water in the hopes to give her some hydration. I even laid out some of her favorite foods in a shallow dish of 100% coconut water. I...

    Hen lethargic, huge inflamed abdomen, crusty smelly feathers,

    Our 1 year and 9 month old hen was starting to act funny last night, as she was going in the nesting box instead of the roosting bar at night. We thought she had a late egg. But this morning, I noticed she was standing still by the water, ignoring the food i had brought in. I picked her up to...

    Disease, illness, or just really calm?

    Hello all, I’m overwhelmingly confused by this new pullet I recently picked up. She’s a beautiful 8 week old Easter egger in a group of 5. All seem perfectly healthy except her. She is consistently on the verge of sleep, even when eating and drinking. Any illness I look up she doesn’t match up...

    Lethargic hen

    I have a 2 year old olive egger that has been lethargic for the last few days. At first I thought it was due to overcast weather and she might’ve been cold. She has been standing with her feathers puffed up with her tail down and will occasionally close her eyes as if she is sleepy. She has been...

    Rooster lethargic - please help!!!!

    Hi there, My Silkie 2yr old rooster has been very lethargic this morning. I treated the flock with amperol these past 5 days, but found out my hen who was sick actually had a prolapsed vent and I think coccidiosis wasn’t the problem. I changed out the water to regular and added nutridense to it...

    Please help! My duck is vomiting food and constantly shaking her head!

    Earlier today, she was very unwell. Her beak went cold for awhile and she kept stumbling around. We were shocked and worried for her, so we gave her meloxadin oral suspension anti-inflammatory medication. She seemed to feel a little better after that, but shortly later, she was unable to eat and...

    I noticed Ruth, my 10mos LO, fluffed up earlier today. I went to check her and noticed one of her eyes were closed but there's no significant swelling or noticeable injuries.

    From the last few posts, I have seen odd symptoms in my sapphire gem hen, Rocky. This morning, she was reluctant to come out of the coop. It looked like she is constantly trying to swallow something, and when I set her down to eat, a yellow fluid would dribble out of her beak when she would...

    Firm butt, lethargic, pale comb

    My one year old barred rock, Barbara, has been off since mid-April and I’m not sure what to do. I've checked everyone for mites/lice, bumblefoot, sour/hard crop and other common ailments and they're all fine in that regard. The avian vets in CT are not seeing chickens because of avian flu (I...
