Thanks. I've never had a chicken die before, so I was bawling my eyes out last night She died right in my hands... :-(

And there is yet another problem! I have a broody Silkie hen who keeps turning her head up, almost laying on it. What is she doing?

Research star gazing...

I don't know enough about it to advise you other then to point you in the right direction! Good luck. Please keep us posted on what you find out and how your hen is doing.

If you find out that it is a vitamin deficiency, here is what I would recommend...

.5mls poly vi sol, without iron, once daily
400 ius vitamin E twice daily
