My 23 week old Leghorn drank a small amount of oil, maybe a beakfull. How bad is this, and is there anything I can do to help her? All I've done is put her in a milk crate so I don't have to catch her again.

If it was new, she's probably just fine.
Thanks, I'll do that.I agree, with DobieLover. If it was only a small amount, and no additives such as antifreeze the bird should be fine. If she were mine, I'd continue to keep her in a confined area with feed and water provided so I could better monitor her symptoms and feces. Encouraging her to drink electrolytes such as Gatorade may be beneficial. Please continue to keep us posted on her condition.
