I would like to thank everyone for their insights and suggestions.

I wanted to let everyone know my girl did not make it.

We kept her warm and secluded from the others in her own little pen. She was not eating or drinking.

She made it through the night but her breathing was labored.

She was facing her water dish but could not drink and was not standing anymore

She had a wound in her lung and it was filling up with blood. There was really nothing we could do so I told her I loved her and hugged her before we put her down.

I get so attached to animals because I put my heart and soul into raising them. It is how I roll.

Thanks again and will move forward with my 8 others that are alive.

I am so sorry to hear that

It is very sad to loose a hen. I am very sorry for your loss and I hope that the rest of your chickens will be safe and continue to live long happy lives
