Hi!
1) Rhode Island Red Hen, almost 2 years old, feels lighter than the rest of the chickens (haven't weighed her)
2) labored breathing, lethargic, brown/black tongue, smell from beak/mouth, some mucus but not excessive, NO swelling of the face, comb still bright red, last night- throat came out of beak partially- seems to be her way to help herself breath, some head shaking but not excessive
3) Yesterday morning
4) No other birds are exhibiting symptoms
5) some blood from the mouth I believe (it was in her cage but not much), nothing apparently broken
6) the only thing different lately is excessive moisture (lots of rain) & a camper with insulation boards outside it that they have been pecking at
7) Not eating, have been giving her fluid through a syringe since last night
8) Poop looks normal minus the pieces of the foam board insulation in it
9) Isolation, vitamin/electrolyte water, pea size amount of Ivermectin paste last night
10) Would like to treat at home completely
11) attached picture
12)Currently she is in a small dog kennel with a towel, normally a large coop with sand as "bedding" under the roosting area- they free range during the day
