I have a two and a half year old Easter egger hen that was always my top layer and healthy but here lately she's not been eating very much, her comb is red but it has flopped over to the side (which is unusual), she stands hunching like she's pulling her body in, not very active but she is eating and drinking some and still walking around pecking the ground at times, but a lot of times she's just resting. Her vent is very dirty, she's been having diarrhea, she hasn't laid an egg for about 2-3 weeks or more and the last one she laid was a very small also known as hiccup egg. I have been searching all over the Internet with her symptoms and trying to figure out what could be causing this but can't put my finger on it. I would appreciate any and all advice suggestions and help!
PS. I just had to move her and my other 2 chickens out to my sisters in Aprii because we had to move and ever since she's not been happy, I thought she would have settled in by now but I really think that she's not happy about where she's at so I really don't know what to do at this point.
I gave her some Valbazen in which she acted like she was getting better with that but it didn't take too long before she started not laying again and then eventually she quit eating that much. I have put electrolytes and probiotics in with her drinking water for right now until I can correctly find out what is going on with her, to give her the treatment that she needs to get better so if anybody has any experience with this or has had the similar experience symptoms with their chicken could you please offer me any advice or suggestions on what it could be!!?! This is my first post on this forum so I will try to add pictures and if there is any more questions please don't hesitate to ask and I will address everything to get to the bottom of this thank you for your time and reading this and I appreciate any and all responses!!
