Hello!
I have a small backyard flock (only three hens) that we have had for a month. Within a week of getting them we had a bout of wet weather here in Texas, and since then our red sex link, Mavis, has had a persistent wet cough. Neither of my other hens (Ethel and Laverne) have had any similar symptoms. I have not been able to figure out what is going on with her. Her appetite and energy are great. She isn't laying, but she hasn't since we got her. We were told they were about five months old when we got her and Ethel. Laverne we got a week later and she is closer to a year.
Laverne, my EE, lays every day, and Ethel, a Polish, just payed her first egg today. Ethel and Mavis came from the same place.
Any thoughts?
Thank you for your help!
