Hello, all!
Daisy (the hen in question) is a three year old Rhode Island Red hen. Yesterday, I noticed her comb was super-pale, almost white. I checked her vent (normal), her crop (semi-full), and for mites (none). None of my birds have worms. I noted her position on the roost, so I could check her droppings in the morning. There is a festival going on in my town, so I wasn't able to check her droppings yesterday.
This morning, I went out, and there were blood globs under where my sweet Daisy roosts. I haven't seen this before, in my hens or others'. I know the green means she's not eating, but I need to know what to do about the blood.
Please help me save my sweet Daisy! I call her my baby (partially as a joke, but mostly because I love her so much.)
I am going to try to attach photos; please be patient with me and my inability to understand devices.
