Flystrike

Is she eating her normal feed?
I would give her a bit of buttermilk with white cooked rice as a treat to see if that firms up the poop.
I gave her some rice, her poop got slightly better, but still slightly green, not as wet though. Here are some photos from today, I let her out with the flock for a little bit again. Her butt was washed again, and most of the poop was removed! 🎉
The pictures I always take before washes and the flushes though...

Good job! Glad she’s getting better!! ❤️🐔 keep updating us!
She was let out into the flock today again (Like field trips). So far, she got one flush of diluted hydrogen peroxide, I will give one more tonight. She had a nice dust bath ❤️

Its much MUCH better today!!! I first washed her but with some water (she got it muddy after her dust bath). Then, I flushed her with dilated hydrogen peroxide, followed by a glove cleanup (to clean her poop), and then, I thought I saw a maggot! So I rushed and got some hydrogen peroxide and water, I tried to flush it out. The water sprayed back...and got in my eye 😫. Bad idea...I got some water and washed the wound. It turned out to not even be a maggot 😑😓


Anyhow, I took the picture after her cleanup this time. Much better! 🥳
@Wyorp Rock when do you think she could return to the flock? Doesnt it look so much better? I am so happy for her! It looks way better without the stubborn poop which finally came off.

Yay!!! My hen gave me a scare today. Ended up passing an soft egg. I think she’s doing much better.
