I have a hen, named Ebru. Yesterday, I have seen suddenly the wattle, combs and around eyes are light pink than red. She is normally boss of the other 5 hens. But . yesterday she was slow, not much interested on food. But drinking water instead. She went to roost , others did not want to roost with her much. She egged while she is at the roost. Her poop was very liquidy. But no blood or any worm as much as I can see with my eyes. And her feathers were dirty from the diarrhea.
Checked by eyes, no lice or any bug on her.
I have been researching since yesterday what might be wrong with her.
They are free in the garden during the day.
This morning she came running outside with others
Still did not interest much morning treats which is mixed with feed, wheat, yeast, pro-biotic, DE, dry worms (no soy/corn), dry berry , rose buds, dry oregano and sort.
Went directly to the water.
I have put Corid and Vitamins /Electrolytes with lacto Bacillus in their water this morning. And did not let them out from the run today
I have 3 cameras in the coop and run, I can watch them when I am away.
I have seen her lying in egg box long time, not sure she could egg or not.
When I came back to home, her comb and wattles were more reddish, but still not the same as others.
She still does not eat much, but eats dry worm.
Gave them rice, plain yogurt dry crushed egg shelves, safflower.
She was interested in rice, yogurt, and some safflower.
I have checked her crop, it was very soft, small, I could feel the safflowers in them.
She was nibbling on the eggplant at my vegetable garden which is fiber and magnesium I think.
I had ivomec today, but was not sure I should give it.
I got epsom salt, not sure yet , how much or how should give it.
I will get liver tomorrow, cook and give it to her to fight against anemia.
Will continue with corid about 5/7 days and always with electrolytes
I got organic bragg apple cider vinegar that I will add their water...
Planning to add cod liver oil.
Should I give oil from her egg channel for egg bound possibility...
Too much information, too much confusion, what might be wrong. Am I doing right, wrong? what am I missing?
Can be Cocci, egg bound, crop problem ..
After all that search, now I am lost... And I am pretty new...
Sorry for the long story... But I need experience, suggestions.
