We have one 10 month old hen that seems to sleep a lot more than our other 3 hens…and the roo doesn’t sleep enough!! She also holds her head and neck noticeably to her right (left in the picture) and gapes or seems to adjust her crop. (Video) we let them out of the 22x6 run into the backyard for a couple hours a day.
Shot of Ivermectin for worm or parasites given yesterday. Nutridrench given today. Dry crumble is available all day and we feed them fermented feed every morning. Bananas, apples, carrots and sprouted sunflower seeds given frequently. She eats and her poo looks Normal. She has never been an aggressive forager like the others but she does eat but not a lot.
Any ideas why she would be sleeping a lot and/or what treatments we could try?
