Help! Please!!

My gut says she’s having reproductive issues or possibly toxicity from the deworming (since two are ill) or a combo of the two. But I am unsure how long heatstroke symptoms would last and if they’d be up and down like they’re showing. I would think they’d be well on the road to recovery if they had gotten heatstroke yesterday, and it wouldn’t be cyclical since they’re out of the heat today.

The best advice I can give is to try to keep her (them) hydrated well, keep on top of giving calcium every day for a while for Peaches and try to get them a to eat a bit if possible. If it’s heatstroke, this should pull them out of it. If it’s toxicity, this should also help pull them out of it. If it’s egg binding or other reproductive issues, this should also help that. @Wyorp Rock may have better advice.

Im so sorry there isn’t a straightforward solution to what they’re going through. I hope they both pull through okay.

Has she showed anymore signs of laying an egg? And how are the rest of your hens?

Yeah, I agree with you. I did overdose my chickens with chicken fenbenazole on the first 2 days. But they seemed fine, my smallest hen (Beaky) is completely fine as well and I overdosed her aswell... I am trying my very best to keep them fed and hydrated, it is a hassle.


Regarding the reproductive issue, I dont think its that because they are both showing the same symtoms. Snooze never had a problem with her egg, but nock on wood.

Peaches sometimes shows signs of making an egg but as of right now, (im letting them walk around the kitchen) she is preening, so no, as of right now no signs of eggs.


Yes, the rest of my flock is doing well. I find it intresting that Snooze and Peaches are 2 of my lightest chickens, (Besides Beaky) and they are having problems with the heat. (If its that.) My 3 biggest hens are completely fine.


The hen that I suppose might be egg bound just pooped, so I inserted a picture of it. Is there a reason she stands head tucked in her wing?
