Diary and notes of my daily routine.

[casportpony]

Several days ago I noticed one of my 2013 hens looking depressed, so I brought her in, de-wormed, started metronidazole, tubed fluids, then fluids and food. She still isn't better, so gave a shot of Baytril last night.

Today
9:00 am - 60ml fluids
10:30 am - 60 ml fluids
12:00 noon - 120ml baby bird food

what is her temperature like

is she panting or drooping her wings or is she fluffed up?

 

[casportpony]

Droopy wings, head pulled close to body. Was fluffed up outside, but not now since being inside. Of course not interested in food or water and poop is not normal will try to get a picture of it. She is doing a little preening.

Hope she improves soon!

At least she is in good hands

Sort of forgot what I did to her the rest of the day, but will try to do better today. Staring with... Woke at 3am to stoke the fire so that she could have a room heated to 80-85 degrees. Her crop has cleared since last night feedings, so will feed again in a few hours.
