Thank you for your advice.If she were my chicken I would spend time with the flock trying to figure out why she is acting the way she is. Chickens can be quite mean to those low on the totem pole. If she is being picked on, is it by one chicken or does the entire flock gang up on her? How does she act during the day around the others? Does she mostly hide? Does she hang around others? Does she avoid them. Does she have space to get away from bullies?
How many other chickens do you have and do they have enough space in the coop? Do they free range? If not, do they have enough room in the run?
Is she kept away from food?
If she has no other injury or other obvious issues, I would try to understand why she is acting the way she is. Once you figure that out, solutions may present themselves.
Hope she gets along well.
You are so welcome. I hope she is doing better today and that you figure out what is going on! Good luck!Thank you for your advice.
