Uh-oh. That isn't good. Have you given her NutriDrench? It works rapidly as a health

We have a solution wonderful Azygous gave us that we have been administering via feeding tube.

Maisie and Sadie are both doing very poorly right now unfortunately.

I darkened the room for them as well so they can sleep better:

The fans are off and it is 80 degrees in the room currently.

Sadie did one medium sized poo:

We tried to give Maisie the other half of the molasses flush, but she was using all her energy to keep us from doing it. So we haven't been able to give the rest to her because we don't want her to use all her energy. Her crop is no longer wet though, the food is still there, but she used the liquid.

Sadie's crop is still full of the liquid and hasn't drained.

Maisie is off and on. One moment she is sleeping and the next she wakes up and opens her eyes, sometimes preens or just observes. She did have another small poo, which perked her up a little again.
Sadie on the other hand has only pood a tiny amount and has not changed.

We are up to three chickens inside right now. Five chickens have been given the molasses flush.

Oh no. So it's contagious??

 

[Elspeth Dinsmore]

Oh no. So it's contagious??

No, ma'am. We have already determined that it is likely because of a high worm load that is causing blockages in some of their systems after de-worming just two days ago. You can go back and read what we have already discussed on this topic.

Maybe take the saddle off the gray hen. She might feel better if you do.
