Tweedle Dee was fine last evening on her nightly 1 hour backyard forage trip out of the hen pen. She did put herself in the pen first and roosted on a feed tub which was strange.She and her male Silkie Bo, Tweedle Dum are ALWAYS last in. This morning, she was where I left her ...still on the feed tub in the hen house while everyone was snacking in the run. I have her in a kennel inside.
  • She has snacked on a little feed, scratch and bread.
  • I have not seen her drink yet
  • I checked for mites and lice. none.
  • Felt and looked around abdomen, vent etc. & it looks okay
  • She laid an egg yesterday
  • She pooped a little on my jeans as I checked her. It was white like slightly melted butter.
  • Her eyes look good, she walks fine.
  • She just sits quietly not moving.
Any thoughts? Thank you.
