Long story short....purchased 3 hens from a person selling 1yr old hens. I bought 3. Ive had them for 6 days and I think something is majorly wrong with one or all of the hens. All of them had a BAD case of scaly leg. I treated with vaseline. No eggs from Day 1 from all hens.
3 days later...Scaly leg is looking so much better with the daily applications if vaseline. Its Epsom salt bath time. I started with the worst hit hen with scaly leg. Her abdomen is swollen, red and her vent area has cemented feces stuck to many feathers. I cant get it all. Im not sure what the heck is going on but i hope i can help her but please help me with some advice. Ill provide 2 pics for you guys. I can post more if needed. Please remember. I bought these hens 6 days ago...Ive worried since there have been no eggs and I had no idea anything may have been wrong with them when i bought them. Im now worried.
