Hello,
This is Raven, my Australorp. She’s had messy white droppings for a long time; more than a year. Her bottom and breath have a slightly sweet smell.
Here is a link to the thread I started about my sneezing Orpington in case there’s a connection.
Recently I’ve noticed that her balance isn’t great; she kind of tipped over a few times while tipping her head back to drink, and she fell over a couple times on a steep section in the pen. That was several weeks ago, and she hasn’t done it since. Her toes are a little swollen too; I am wondering if she has arthritis:
She still gets around pretty well; she refuses to use the chicken ramp, but instead launches herself out the door. She waddles when she walks. Her abdomen doesn’t feel tight or baggy.
Icky dirty bottom:
Her face seemed a tad swollen to me the other day:
What she usually looks like(she is a little more alert here as well):
Any ideas?
