Hello!
Lately I’ve noticed one of my hens has been acting strangely. She has had her tail down and has been fluffed up while standing, with a thousand yard stare. She is also drooling and has a pale comb? She just stands in the outside run pretty much motionless, staring and drooling. When the other chickens run for snacks she just lets herself be bumped into and ran over. I picked her up today and felt her abdomen and didn’t feel anything hard. When I ran after her to pick her up she just stumbled away halfheartedly. I looked at her vent and saw a bit of dried poop but I was extremely strapped for time and didn’t wipe it off. Here are some photos. Sorry for the low quality. The second one is of her a week or so ago when I first noticed the strange behavior. Her comb has grown paler since then, to a pale chalky pink. Please help!!
