sick hen

One of my hens was dealing with impacted crop she isn’t anymore. But she doesn’t have much of an appetite and it’s concerning me because shes underweight. I’m not sure what’s going on or what can be wrong. I believe it’s a crop issue more than impacted/sour crop. She isn’t really eating feed...

Hi everyone! I’m sorry I don’t have any photos of our poor girl since she belongs to my parents and they don’t know how to text anything, but I’ll do my best describing the issue. I visited my parents yesterday and her face was in pretty bad shape. They said it started three or so days ago on...

Hi folks, this is my first time really talking here, but I’ve seen that a lot of good advice can be found for helping chickens in need. One of my hens was displaying symptoms of sour crop, I massaged her crop a few nights ago, and she regurgitated quite a bit of solids and liquids, and towards...

hey y’all, i’ve posted a couple times about my sickly little sebright hen. for reference i’ve treated her with corid to rule out coccidiosis, treated her with permethrin and ivermectin to rule out parasites. im not getting anywhere. i still feel like she must have some sort of deficiency. i...

About a week ago I posted on here about my sickly, lethargic little hen. (Sebright bantam, 4-4.5 months old, not yet laying) Everyone encouraged me to treat her with Corid dude to her symptoms. I didn’t really think she had coccidiosis because she didn’t have bloody diarrhea, didn’t have...

I posted on here Friday about my sickly little sebright bantam hen. A few people recommended I start her on Corid for cocci. The only symptoms she was exhibiting at the time was lethargy, sitting around with her eyes closed. Her poop still looked normal and she had/still has an appetite. So, I...

Hello, we have a hen that is not herself. She’s just over a year old and hasn’t yet laid an egg, but is usually otherwise quite active and happy. Yesterday we noticed her comb was limp with a bit of blue on the ends, she is lethargic and just stands there with her eyes closed. She no longer eats...

I noticed one of my hens is acting weird. Do you guys have any thoughts Her poop looks odd ill post a picture in the morning she's straining and squatting like she’s trying to poop but can’t and when I picked her up to check it looked like she had something fleshy come out of her vent, but it...

Hi hope someone can help with treatment of my flock. Treated with epsom salt bath, mono stat cream, Greek yorgurt and it’s not getting better any suggestions

Hello, so recently one of my hens have been sick I believe it has been due to a crop issue. She’s been doing okay I’ve been giving her olive oil, vinegar water mixture, not too much but enough to do something and I’ve been syringe feeding it to her. and I also gave her yogurt with probiotics...

Im a teenager and new to these types of forums so excuse my mistakes in etiquette and correct names for things My hen “Merlot” is ill. im from the UK. my chicken is 3 years old and her weight seems normal, maybe slightly on the smaller side but still healthy i think - no dramatic drop in...

Hello, I have a one year old black Australorp hen that I found on the floor of my coop on Sunday Afternoon. With an egg a few feet away from her on the coop floor. I grabbed her and put her down in the run and found she could take about three steps and then would fall over to the left and just...

Hi everyone, I have a sick hen, her comb and wattle are very light colored, she's listless, I'm not certain she is eating or drinking (I have food and water available.)Her poop is very runny, like egg whites, with a green slimy slug of poo in it. I suspect that she has some worms. I have added...

Hey guys it's me back with ANOTHER issue with the SAME hen. A couple of weeks ago she had an egg break inside her no shell just a little fluid. Went to the vet, got her some meds. Started doing well the 5 days ago stopped eating and drinking on her own. Yes, I didn't the whole egg binding check...

I have a four year old hen who has been sick for the last week and a half. Her face and comb are purple but don't look swollen up and she's breathing very heavily, especially when she's sitting down. She's been acting sluggish but she's still been eating and drinking, although a little less than...

My 3-year-old ISA brown hen, Sandy, has not been acting herself in the past months. She is quiet, even more so than normally and even while around the other chickens. She is slow to move with the flock as they rotate around the yard, freeranging. She ruffles her feathers, sits in one spot, and...

My 3 yr old hen has been I’ll for the past week. She was barely moving, walking like a penguin. So I brought her inside and gave her an epsom salt soak. No egg. Then noticed she has horrible smelling poops and keeps getting it all over her butt. I couldn’t find a vet to see her so I got advice...

My hen has been waddling around, tail feathers down, and laying down every chance she can. She hasn’t laid in at least 26 hours. I thought she might be egg bound, but I just gloved up and felt around in her vent and can not feel an egg. There is a rather large round sack kind of between her...

Hey all, so one of my hens was “attacked” by one of my dogs last week Thursday. I say “attacked” because it was more like a stomping, with some pulling of feathers. I was present when it happened so I was able to stop the dog almost immediately. She seemed to be fine aside from being shaken up...

Hi, Hope you can help, I am a first time chicken owner and cant seem to find anything on the internet that looks similar. A few days ago I noticed one of my hens has a solid lump on the side of her face/close to beak area. I've been monitoring her and she has been eating and drinking...
