Hello, everyone name is Irfan

:frow Hi Irfan! I am a grandmother in the middle of America raising two grandchildren. I am excited that someone from Pakistan has joined us. 😊 My husband and I have about 20 hens and 2 roosters.

Sorry, Irfan, I really don't. Is she getting bullied by the other hens and not being allowed to eat? Do you have grit available? Is there any way you can check her crop to be sure it is full at bedtime and empty in the morning before she has a chance to eat or drink anything? If you can do that, then let us know what her crop feels like. Is it soft and spongy, or hard and tight, or does it feel like a water balloon or what? Also, smell her beak and see if she has bad breath or has a bad smell about her. Tell us anything else you notice about her that might help us figure out what could be wrong. Can you get a picture of her standing by herself so we can see if her tail is up or down and how she is holding her neck and head? I may not be able to help you but if you answer these questions, someone here surely will!

Ok, thank you for your reply, she is eating well and walking and active, and When I free them evenly she is flying more than other hens. I asked the veterinary doctor he said that deworm her and after that, if she didn't get weight then we will treat them with other medications.

thank you very much, Yes here in the area there are different varieties of chickens some people just keep them for fondness (which are very expensive and rare chicken), and I keep the hens for eggs. Only one hen start egg others will also start soon.
