Buff Sussex Nellie, 2yrs old.
6 months ago was lethargic, I pulled poo and eggshell protruding from vent. 2 days later she was better but marran had poo protruding, which we pulled out. Then every 4 week Nellie laid a lash egg, was lethargic before, but 2 days later totally better.
4 weeks ago she became lethargic and hasn't improved. Each time she lost weight and put it back on, but not this time.
No injury or broken bones.
4) Is there any bleeding, injury, broken bones or other sign of trauma.
Temp 14 to 20 degrees C. Cool irish summer.
Coop is wooden garden shed, lined with corrie board, (wipe clean weekly) poo trays under roost emptied daily. Flock of hens. Free range in garden 100 ftx100ft.
She gobbles soaked dry fruit, yogurt, soaked white bread, I have given her shredded cheese, meat, scrambled egg in afternoon as she appears to eat very little. She does scratch and walk around normally for half hour, but then sleeps. She is just bone and weighs 2.2kg.
I wormed her, and have been putting cider vinegar in the water.
Poop is now water with a little white, or green,
Chicken farm, pharmacies, farmers and backyard owners say there is no hen vet.
I think she is starving.
Crop spongy after eating, comb red, but flopped over 3 weeks ago (dehydrated).
Cannot feel and egg.
Hard underneath, possible growth.
