I have a 13 month old Ancona hen who has been sick for almost two weeks. Her comb is pale and flopped over, she is puffed up and isolating herself. I put Corid in the only source of water for 7 days and saw zero improvement. I put Nutridrench in the water and nothing. I now have electrolytes and probiotics in the water. None of my other 13 hens are showing any signs of this. She does not appear to have respiratory distress at all. Her crop empties at night. She eats. I will offer her scrambled egg and she is eager to participate. Today she seemed unsteady of her feet and was laying down. She stood up but her wings were droopy, hanging down. She is normally skittish but we could pick her up easily. I gave her straight Corid in her beak. What else can I do?? I have a picture of what I believe to be her poop.
