Chicken ate a bit of avocado

[Random Fluffy Chicken]

so, I have a hen who seem to have found and eaten a avocado left by a squirrel while free ranging outside. I heard that avacados are poisonous to chickens but I have only seen her peck at the flesh inside, not the pit or the skin so is that okay? I got rid of the avocado and now I’m wondering if this hen will be alright?

My parents fed my chicken a piece of it and they were fine but I'm not too sure I don't want to say that your bird will be okay bc idk.

It looks like I have another problem. Some clear liquid just came from her mouth! I think it might have been water?

Eating a little bit of avocado flesh shouldn't hurt your chicken. Large amounts of flesh, or eating the skin and pit, will have a negative effect. As for the clear liquid, It wouldn't surprise me if it's water, but keep an eye on her.

She might've drank some water and her head was down so the water came back up this happens to mine sometimes

Help her flush it out, try and make her drink some water.

I would doubt it’s related if all she ate was the flesh. It isn’t toxic.

The pit and skin are toxic, but a bit of the flesh will be fine.

Did she just take a drink?

I’m sure she will be fine but watch her anyway

I have put some acv in her water and she is eating and drinking now. And yes, she did just drink a bit so it was probably water coming from her mouth. I will update later but as of now, no bad signs. She laid an egg today earlier so I’m sure she’s alright.
