Droopy wings

[Marmack]

Came home this evening to one of our peahens with her wing feathers down and makes it look as if her butt is higher than her shoulders. They were just wormed with Ivermectin the beginning of December. I do not hear or see any abnormal breathing, wheezing, or sniffling. Any suggestions, this is the first time I have seen her standing like this. I did put paper under her to collect any overnight feces.

@casportpony ?

How old is she? She is either sick or she is going to lay an egg tonight. Is she tame enough for you to catch?

Edited to add:
Yeah, I know laying season is over, but some of them will lay eggs in November, December, or January, especially if you have lights in their pen/coop (I have one doing the same thing).

Today she is 5 tomorrow she is 6 along with the horses on the farm. She has laid 2 eggs several weeks ago and I do have heat lamps on when is it below 40, We have just had several warm days and now is dropping back to the normal 40-50 degree days and freezing overnight,

I think she's okay then, just gonna lay an egg. If she doesn't lay tonight or tomorrow you should catch her and very gently check just inside her vent to see if she has an egg.

Thank you, will update tomorrow

Looks like an egg is due.

One egg today but I do not think it was her’s. She is in the same position and you can see her doing gentle pushes every once in awhile.

Can you catch her? If she doesn't lay today or tomorrow I think you should catch her and check for an egg.

She may be lacking calcium, I would give her calcium glutamate orally.
