Chicken acting out of norm not earring and slow walking

[LathropChickens22]

This hen did not eat this morning, walking around slow, DID drink water. I saw her pass clear/brown poop. Her crop felt a little squishy.



I emptied her crop, just in case it was sour crop and gave her a 40 minute Epsom salt warm soak just in case it was egg bound, Gently rubbing her abdomen.

When I put her in the kennel to get some rest. She just stands there like the pic and is still just standing. It looks like she is working her back end muscles because the feathers keep contracting and releasing.


What else can I do? What is wrong? Any ideas? How long does the soak take if that’s the issue? The water that came out DID NOT smell at all.

What is your location? How old is this hen? Was she doing all the normal things yesterday?

Get some of this.

Give her one whole table immediately. If she's egg bound, this will encourage contractions to push out the obstruction. She will not have trouble swallowing it. Just push it into her beak.

Place her in a crate with water and food and make it as quiet as possible. Any stress can make things worse.
