I'm new to this group. As a matter of fact, I ended up here as a result of searching my chickens symptoms. I have a flock of 9 birds. 8 hens, 1 rooster. All of them seem fine except one of my hens seems to be sick. I am asking for some advice. I noticed about a week ago that she seemed to be distancing herself from the rest of the flock. Each day seems a little worse. She just stays to herself. Seems lethargic. Wont come running to eat when I feed them. Tonight I've made her a makeshift spot to lay in my house where its quiet and warm. The others started pecking at her today like they know something is wrong. I've managed to get her to drink from a syringe but other than that, she isn't doing it on her own. I'm calling my local vets in the morning as soon as they open but was hoping someone here could give me some advice. The only droppings I've seen since she's been inside weren't solid at all and are bright yellow.
