I have a 3year old Isa brown that has a poopy behind. Figuring she needed worming, l gave her safeguard almost 2 weeks ago a 5 drops of ivermectin a few days afterwards. She isn't perking up as l had hoped. I feed her scrambled egg and sunflower seeds while isolated so she gets plenty to eat. I was wondering about giving her nutri-drench by dribbling some in her mouth just to make sure she's getting it. They never seemed to drink it in their water.
 
How much Safeguard did you give?
And do you always feed scrambled eggs and sunflower seeds? Because that is not a balanced diet and sunflower seeds are extremely high in fat which can cause serious issues.

I had 6ml in the syringe. A little dribblef so she probably got 5ml. Her poop is runny, she isn't eating much at all. Eggs and sunflower seeds with scratch she would eat and are strengthening. Stands or sits hunched often, moves slowly.

How much does she weigh?
