#sick hen

Hello, I've read through a lot of the post on white poo, done a lot research and have been self treating but would like to ask for any additional tips. I read something I should buy at tracker supply but can't find that post now and I don't want to over treat either. Thanks for your help. I've...

This morning I noticed that one of my wyndottes had been wandering around away from the rest of the flock. She is holding her mouth like she is in pain or hot but her breathing doesn't seem to be different and it's cool out. Shes scratching and pecking at food but seems to be having trouble...

Hello everyone, I have a 2 year & 9 month old leghorn hen that just started to show signs of sickness 1 day ago. I'm pretty sure she is not eggbound because she did lay an egg yesterday. She did not lay an egg today though (usually she lays daily). She is still eating and drinking but not as...

I have a 18 week leghorn who has a loud personality that appeared to be acting differently hanging out in nesting box on Monday. She appeared listless, frequently laying and falling asleep. I noticed later in day her gait was wide. That evening she laid her first egg which did not have shell...

A few days ago I noticed one of my chickens eyes was swelled really bad. I looked at it closer, and there was fluid leaking out that had formed a yellowish crust around her eye. I immediately cleaned around the eye with a wet washcloth and inspected her eye. I cannot even see her eye because it...

Hi, im mira and im new here. My four year old chicken is sick. Last week, i noticed that my chicken is unwell. She hasnt been laying eggs for weeks and barely drinks water. Two months ago, she had a (upper) leg injury due to her rope. When i noticed it i immediately untied her and cleaned her...

Hello to whoever this finds! I needed some guidance for my chicken. Any info would help! I’ve got one olive egger (pictured) who is having trouble moving. If it means anything we have just returned after 5 days. No limps, but slow and very little movement. She still stands fine, not sure...

Hello all, My hen has once again gotten sick, None of my other hens have gotten sick so I’m not as experienced as most of you when it comes to diagnosing but so far I’ve noticed she’s been avoiding eating, her crop was soft and squishy when I took her out this morning, she’s been pooping as...

Hello everyone. I think my chicken might be paralyzed. Since yesterday it doesn't move... I thought it might be because it is hot, but again her little chicks are fine and she is the only one who isn't moving. I put her somewhere not hot but still she didn't seem to get up. What can I do to help...

Hello everyone! I have a problem with one of my two year old hens. To be specific she is a Rhode Island Red. During the Winter and Spring she has been progressively losing feathers on her head. She is a very healthy hen other than the loss of feathers on her head. She is actually my best layer...

I need help please. I'm at my wits end. A vet is not an option in my areas. Scarlett has vent gleet. I'm positive it's vent gleet. She has had it for about a year. I couldn't catch her to treat her until recently. I have tried everything that I can think of and everything that my online...

My Chicken is barely walking and is now mostly laying down. And when she does walk her wings flop around. She also has poop buildup around where she poops from. Please help

Currently I have a small flock of five hens; A barred rock, a lavender orpington, an easter egger, a buff brahma, and a light brahma (they are all two years old). My light brahma has been acting sickly for the past few days. She is lethargic and her poop is green and watery with a lot of white...

My OEG bantam hen has been acting very weird all day. she has been puffed up and just standing around, she seemed fine this mourning though. It is fall here in Michigan and we just got our first bit of snow, I don't know if she may have gotten chilled. She is around 6 months old, and has just...
