Ah, you have Queen Snakes in Ontario, right?Montreal is a city, in the Province (think state) of Quebec.
My Province is Ontario, the rattle snake here is the Mississauga Rattler.
No Canada, like the US has different snakes in different zones/climates. They have rattle snakes in southern Alberta which are the same ones you find in the States south of Alberta (Montana and North Dakota I think).
Because Ontario and Quebec are separated by Lake Erie and Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence Seaway from the US snakes differ a bit.

Well her comb looks red from this photo, I am thinking that the feathers could just be damaged from breeding. Or is she molting?Okay all...NOW I'm worried about Eenie. I stuck the camera in to get a photo of her on the nest and she does not look well! I was kind of shocked when I blew up this picture. She looked okay walking around yesterday. If you enlarge it, her wing feathers look bare and she looks...disheveled. She is eating and drinking and pooping. I'm no longer concerned about the heat. I stuck in a thermometer and it's actually a couple degrees cooler in the nest box than it is in the rest of the coop. But she doesn't really look healthy.
I can't catch her and look her over without my husband to help, but I can check her out more closely tomorrow. What should I look for? What does everyone think?
I suppose it could be from the rooster...poor Sheba is bare at the top of her wings...

Queen snakes? Never heard of them…Ah, you have Queen Snakes in Ontario, right?

I’ve had king snakesQueen snakes? Never heard of them…
I just ordered a vial. $30, including shipping.As of yesterday morning, All Bird Products still had enrofloxacin which is the generic form of Baytril. That is a broad spectrum antibiotic which also treats mycoplasma. I would recommend that over the cipro because of the additional coverage.

What I did with my hen is to make sure she was in a quiet place where no one else could pester her, twice a day I would get her off the eggs to eat, drink and poop, she would run back to her eggs if she didn’t want to eat etc.
She did lose weight but that’s to be expected.
I am not sure what exactly your hen is doing to make you feel she isn’t well other than the way her feathers are. Is there something else she is doing?
