1) HennyPenny is 27 weeks old Plymouth barred rock.
2) Drinking a lot of water, not eating, fluffed up standing in the sun sleeping most of the time, lethargic. Missing most of her belly and vent area feathers.
3) She has been going down hill for 9 days.
4) Flock mates were exhibiting similar symptoms but have all bounced back.
5) She has depluming/itch mites
6) I adopted two new chickens one day before she starting getting sick. They came with a terrible case of depluming mites. The were kept separate but Henny Penny did stick her face in their run to investigate them.
7) She is drinking water fortified with vitamins. The last few days she has eaten a few dried BSF.
8) Poops were normal, last night they turned very watery.
9) They have all been treated for depluming mites with a pyrethrum dip, poultry dust on them and DE in their dust bath. New bedding and nest box. Coop sprayed down with Electro PSP.
10 ) Chicken vet is booked out 3.5 weeks. I am on the cancelation list.
11) I will see if I can photograph her today and post in comments or edit and add.
12) She is house in an Eglu Cube with a 6' run with one sister. Hemp bedding in poop tray, change out or, stir and treat with barn lime daily. treat with
