    Not sure what is wrong with 12 week old legbar

    My hen has been lethargic and poofy for a couple weeks, she seems to still eat and drink but today it is getting a little worse. I can pick her up without her moving and she falls asleep in my arms. No signs of mites or worms or anything physical I can see.
