Hello! New chicken owner here! I have a chicken who is sick and I have researched everything I can to no avail. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Monday morning I opened the coop and she was standing there kind of lopsided, her comb was floppy and she was waddling. I immediately thought “egg bound” soaked her, supplied her vitamin C and got her to lay on Monday night. Fast forward to Thursday night she has not laid another egg since the one on Monday and she is still showing similar behavior. However she is eating drinking and pooping like a champ. She finally laid another egg on Thursday night. Today, Friday morning she still seems “lame” I have her secluded in a kennel. Sometimes she seems completely normal, but then she will go lame again and be wobbly and use her wings to balance and just lay down. Her comb is bright red but floppy. She is eating drinking and has healthy poop. Any ideas on what it might be?
Thank you in advance, I just want this sweet girl to feel better!
