Hey BYC peeps,
This is Ramona, my 1 year old ie Wheaten Marans. Shes been kind of hunched and pale-combed for almost a month now.
Her crop doesn’t feel squishy or hard, no foul smell, but perhaps a bit empty. Despite this she hasn't lost any weight and still eats.
My flock has just recently received anti parasitic medication, so I doubt it’s parasites. Her sister (wearing the saddle) just went through a rough molt, but her comb is much more vibrant and so is her coloring.
I give my flock crumble and sometimes mix a bit of scratch in there. They also free-range every other day or so, depending on predators.
My flock is NPIP certified and just had the annual testing, so it’s nothing like bird flu.
She has no other symptoms other than hunching and looking pale. No respiratory symptoms. Any idea how I can help her? Thank you
