    Lethargic rooster - poo thread

    I posted earlier about my sick roo, Tucker, but the thread fizzled out with folks telling me to change my flock feed and nothing much related to what might be causing my rooster to lose all his energy and his balance. He had had very watery poo for the last two days, but is drinking electrolyte...

    Rooster is lethargic and droopy

    Please help - my barred rock rooster, Tucker, has been out of sorts for the last couple days. Today I found him lying in the shade of birds' water structure. His balance is a little off, he has no energy, he's not eating or drinking much, and he is dragging his wings. I have him inside, and have...

    SOS SICK 14 WEEK OLD CHICKEN

    I walked out to the coop to see one of my cream leg bars just nestled up on the coop floor. They like to do that sometimes so I didn’t think much of it until she didn’t get up when I came next to her and touched her. I tried to get her to stand and she was weak and wobbly. She just seems SO...

    Help! Egg bound or worse??

    I found my hen in the nest box today falling asleep while squatting. This is strange to me because 1) she was falling asleep standing up and 2) I already got all my eggs accounted for today (although one might’ve been laid last night?). Not sure if she’s egg bound for a few days and the 4th one...

    Hi All Collected some ex-batts two weeks ago. One of them didn't look right from the start - though it might be the stress of an adoption day but unfortunately not. 1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.) 1.5yrs, very light...

    Lethargic hen, gurgling no appetite

    Hi all, One of my favorite girls is sick and I’m wondering what to do. She’s lethargic, hasn’t eaten all day as far as I can tell, doing that little penguin stance and falling asleep standing up. When I brought her inside she started making gurgling sounds and some fluid (I couldn’t tell but...

    Lethargic Americana, with wet stinky butt.

    I just found one of my hen's who had recently dust bathed rather unresponsive. I picked her up, checked her back side and it is wet. I'm about to put her in an Epsom salt bath. What else can I do for her?

    Sudden respiratory distress - please help!

    Hi all - last week I introduced some new girls into our existing flock. I noticed one of the new girls was acting pretty sick - puffed up, lethargic, wouldn’t eat, etc. Separated her and unfortunately she did not make it. Yesterday I noticed 3 of my existing hens acting sick as well. Respiratory...

    Lethargic chicken with watery white stool

    I have a 1 year old cream legbar chicken exhibiting concerning symptoms. She is pretty small compared to my other legbars of the same age. Unsure of weight but hasn’t decreased in size since symptoms appeared. She is very lethargic. Walks around a little but mostly just laying down. Isolating...

    I'm brand new to chickens, I bought 7 chicks from Tractor Supply Co 3 weeks ago. The other 6 seem to be fine but one of my Lavender cochins is a little smaller than the others and this morning she was laying down and stumbling when picked up and put back down. Since she was getting walked on...

    Hen open mouth breathing and lethargic

    My welsummer hen has been acting sick since yesterday morning (that I’ve noticed). Very lethargic, not eating or drinking, and opening mouth breathing. I can tell she’s having a hard time breathing. But no discharge from eyes or nose. No coughing or sneezing. She did have some runny poop...

    Flock Woes

    I've had this experience before with two other Buckeyes so I'm fearing the worst. I found Speckles this morning sitting out on the floor of my garage that has flake down as if she was planning to lay. Picked her up and put her in a nesting box. She didn't fuss. I checked her vent she was...

    Does my hen have internal parasites? If so, what med to give to her? Watery poop, pale face.

    Hey guys, I has posted a thread a few days ago with a different title that didn't really specify what she had. Now I'm sure that she has something going on. Her name is Gert. She is a 2 year old sapphire gem. Her face is very pale and her poop is extremely watery. She's eating, drinking, and...

    Purple comb, tail down. lethargic hen - photos

    So today in the evening, I noticed my hen was acting strange. When they went outside, she just sat in the sun under a tree as all the other hens picked around. I got her to drink water and eat food. She is acting very lethargic, and the top of her comb is purple which I think may be a sign of...

    HELP!! Sick goose!!

    My favorite goose has been acting odd the last couple of days. She won't eat (we changed the food but she won't even eat the scratch) although seems to attempt to graze. She'll eat wood and drinks a little but mostly she just stands still and rests. She can't move fast and seems to have no...

    Help Penguin stance in my 6 month old chicken

    Hi all! I’m new to chickens and my 6 month old australorp chicken has begun to stand like a penguin. I have too many chickens to really know if she is laying yet but one of my others that is also 6 months just started laying (she’s the only olive egger) so I assume she will be or should be. I...

    Lethargic hen

    Hey all, One of my hens appeared especially lethargic today (seemed totally fine yesterday). Lots of standing still with her eyes closed, and little interest in food. When her eyes are open, they do appear bright, and she is responsive to gentle pokes. It's pretty cold here (23 F), so I've...

    Sick Peach Golden?

    My male peach golden pheasant is 2 years old. Always been healthy, he’s recently started throwing his head backwards and his feathers are ruffled and keeps eyes closed. I originally thought gape worm, but I’m not sure that’s it. He’s been given dewormer. It’s like his crop is full? What should I...

    Lethargic chicken

    Noticed this chicken this morning shutting its eyes and just standing around. It ate a little and socialized a little but clearly not normal. No wheezing, eye or nasal discharge. Just quarantined it and gave it a scrambled egg which it ate with vigor and some feed and sunflower seeds which it...

    RIP: AngryGirl, light Brahma, odd behavior

    I did not place this in the emergency/injuries because it's not urgent. Noticed AngryGirl was off Saturday, but we have five or six going through a molt. Checked on her yesterday, she just seemed off. Wasn't moving much, extremely pale and her wattles/comb were nearly the color of her eyes...
