Thanks. It's my first illness to deal with, so I should feel lucky. But, I don't think Queen Victoria is feeling too lucky today. I will call the vet as soon as they open this morning to see if I can get her in. That is if she is still alive. I just went to check on her and she is not moving much at all and refuses any sort of water. I only ever had 2 illnesses, and I just found them already passed from it. Neither showed any signs of illness until they were gone. One was last year and the other was the year before. I didn't have much of an idea about necropsues at the time, so I didn't get one. But, obviously a year later, this isn't related to that. If I lose Queen V,without knowing what's wrong with her, I'll send her in for one. I want to make sure it's not something contagious to the rest of my flock.
Fingers crossed for your hen
