I just separated my two-year old girl from the flock because she was acting lethargic, not interested in treats and had green runny/foamy poop. Her crop felt empty. It's been above 80 degrees the last few days and I was worried that she was dehydrated and stressed from the heat. She's been molting for a while and though it's taking quite a while to grow her feathers back, she's seemed fine until today. Most of the feathers that are missing are from her belly and around her vent. Doesn't seem to have lost weight and I can't find evidence of lice. I did have issues with scaly leg mites a couples months ago, and treated the flock with Ivermectin and dusted the coop floor with Sevin.
Once in the cage, she "laid" a shell-less egg which hasd a small amount of poop associated with it. I'm worried that she has a swollen oviduct, but overall her body doesn't appear puffy. I've given her water with electrolytes (1 c. water, 2 tsp. sugar, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp baking soda) and provided her with some hard boiled egg to eat.
Thoughts?
