Hello I’m new to the BYC website, I noticed about 2 - 2 1/2 weeks ago my 7 month old Speckled Sussex pretty much stopped eating (she continued drinking though) and wasn't acting herself. I also noticed she had green looking feces and/or watery white feces. These 7 month old chickens are getting bullied by older birds so I thought she had stopped eating since she was getting bullied. So what I did was I separated the older chickens from the younger chickens for a set amount of time each day so the young ones could have some time to eat and drink. I noticed the 7 month old Speckled Sussex started to slowly act herself although still having the green or white colored feces like stated above. But she got worse these past few days. She is now what looks to be breathing from her mouth, she is hanging her wings slightly down the side of her body, and still has the watery white feces and/or green looking feces. Good news is she is still eating and drinking. Also if wondering the weather has been back and forth between 25-55 degree Fahrenheit with some rain and snow. Also this chicken I believe has not started laying eggs just like her other 7 month old sisters. If you have any question or have any answers to my questions I will try to navigate back here so I can respond. I can also try to send more pictures if needed (hopefully the pictures work). Thanks
