Chicken acting strange for a couple weeks Please Read Updates

I have one chicken (not sure which one) that randomly laid quail sized eggs, it would happen about once a month. Never figured out which one it was that laid it, but I ruled out one chicken due to egg color. So now it is down to 2 cinnamon queens and one black star.
And I get wrinkled eggs every couple weeks. Not sure if those were hers either
 
Yes, I learned of that after I got them. I lost one black star chicken last summer to what I believe was a random heart attack. If I could get my hands on the people that bred these chickens...:mad:
How much corid to how much water?
Gosh I am sorry. :hugs Yes, Black Stars can be similar, a production breed. I am sorry you had to go through that so early, I hate when they die young. :-(

Depends on if you get the liquid or the powder. 1 1/2 teaspoons corid per gallon of water for powder, 2 teaspoons corid per gallon on the liquid.

Anytime birds lay anything funky more than once, there is a problem. They say 80% of all hens, no matter the breed will die from some reproductive issue. (Gosh, sorry I am so gloom and doom here! :D)

Its fine! Its better to know and not let her suffer (if this doesn't get better). Hopefully we have to 2 out of 10 that don't have those issues haha. My other one is a gold laced wyandotte, haven't had any issues with her yet. maybe because she isnt as much of a production breed?

Yes, I thought you should know about this breed. When people get started with chickens, they have no idea this sort of thing can be an issue. How would anybody know?!

Wyandottes aren't considered a hard production breed, good layers but not the hard daily laying like Stars and the Queens. The Wyandottes live longer and healthier lives.
Also, how long do I give her the corid for?
Corid is the sole drinking water for 7 days.

I have a feeling this is something you can't fix, but it never hurts to try everything so you know you did all you could.

Good luck with her! :hugs

Definitely keep up with the Monastat for 2 more days so yeasts don't become immune. Keep using the yogurt too. Keep her warm too, but let her hang out with the gang too so she stays happy.

Keep me posted on her, I will be keeping her in my thoughts!
