I don't see anything too alarming in the video.

A bird that has Infectious Bronchitis will have respiratory symptoms like coughing, sneezing, respiratory distress, watery discharge from the nostrils and eyes and sometime chirping.

She is a bit pale, does she lay eggs? How old is she?

I'd see that she's eating/drinking well. You can offer electrolytes if you wish.

Check her over for lice/mites and see that her crop is emptying.

It can be hard to know what causes a hen to decline. Often as they age, they begin to have some reproductive issues or cancer.

Okay I'm thinking we probably got her sick because we've been applying ice to her swollen areas (she was outside sun bathing by the glass sliding doors there was no wind so we didn't secure the security metal door and all the sudden a gust of wind slammed it onto her so now she has swelling on her wing, on her back and chest)

She hasn't laid eggs since July 2019. She's 8 years old.

She is eating but seems dizzy (giving her fenbendazole) I'm giving her Sav-A-Chick electrolytes.

How to check for lice/mites? She seems to have issues with her crop. I already bought her Medistatin but haven't given it to her yet.

She's the one I've had longest so I'm not familiar with how they behave as they age.


Thank you so much for answering

You have to part the feathers under her vent and belly, under wings, around the neck and elsewhere for moving tiny bugs or clumps of their eggs or droppings. Here are a couple of links with good pictures:

It doesn't seem like she has any.

I'm sorry that she was injured, how long ago did this happen?

Where is she swollen? Do you have photos?

You're giving Fenbendazole, so you feel she has worms?

About two months ago.

Her back, her wing, and near her crop. I have photos of her back only. I'm a bit relieved she still moves her wing and even dust bathed a couple days ago.

Video: see how her wing is a bit droopy and she "yawns" like that a LOT. That's what led me to think she has worms but then I don't know if it's a respiratory issue.

The bulge could be caused by a ruptured air sac.
Chicken have several air sacs mostly in pairs, and some situated on either side of the spine.

In your case the clavicular air sac might be affected
