Chicken not feeding and sits in one place

[Palls123]

Another one of my pullets 3.5 months is acting strange since 2 days. She hasn’t been eating and sits apart from the flock. What should I do?

you say another one. What was wrong with the others? You need to think about a flock wide illness or infestation here, of which there are many.

I would boost it with electrolytes and vitamins and get to the bottom of the cause.

Have you checked it over for injury and parasites? Wormed the flock recently?

what are the poops like?

How does her crop feel?
From what I can see, it looks like her crop is a little big. Check to make sure wether it feels like slush or hard.

The last one started limping, then didn’t move at all and it didn’t survive. This happened a month back. Same breed.
I’m feeding Scratch and peck grower feed. Electrolyte water

Ya I’m suspecting this as well. I see a hump. Trying to massage her crop.
First time to having chickens and These issues are leaving me disappointed. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong.

It is not your fault, some chickens just don’t last for too long and are maybe more prone to deseases than others. Just be aware and try to prevent other sickness in the future.
