I don’t think she is too small, and you are a marvellous hen keeper.Thank you. I have brought her in to my office where it is nice and cool but her breathing is not slowing down. I have checked for injuries (but I think I would have seen feathers if a hawk or fox had got to them while I wasn't there) and I have felt for an egg (nada).
Rather ghoulishly I am looking up how to submit her body for a necropsy at the state lab. I can't quite bring myself to print the submission form while she is still breathing.
I can't bear it - she is so tiny - I don't even have her in a dog cage - she is in something no bigger than a shoe-box. I do wonder if she was just too small to start laying and something went wrong in that department. Her anemia and liver wonkiness could be caused by pretty much anything.
I may not be meant to have chickens.
No, there is definitely something more going on here. If the worst does happen then yes for sure get a necropsy done, also blood work for molds, fungi, and West Nile.
If you still have some of that odd feed send along a sample of it also.
Oh I am so hoping she will be ok.
