Help. What is this

[kcan2]

It's normal for the area to swell a bit after the tick has been removed. It probably itched, too. You can dip a qtip in some rubbing alcohol and apply it to the center of the area to help with the itch and cleanliness. If you don't see a black dot in the center of the affected area, then you probably got the head of the tick out. Not sure why she would have low energy, although it's not likely related to the tick.

Scrambled eggs are a good energy booster! Will she eat those? How does her crop seem? Is it emptying at night, or has her appetite been low?

Okay will do

The other day she was better and like herself but now she isn’t with the other chickens just sitting next to me sleeping

Is she pooping, eating/drinking?

Get some photos if you can.

Do check her over for more ticks, lice and mites.

It's been several days (5?) since you removed the tick so she should be doing better by now.

I’ll make some and see if she does eat them

I had to put some water beside her

I gave her some food she wasn’t that hungry
She is pooping

I would clean off the wound with some rubbing alcohol, if you have any Vetricyn I would spray that on it too. Do you have any Sav-A-Chik electrolytes? If so, I would add those to her water. If not, you can make your own with a tablespoon of sugar and a teaspoon each of baking soda and salt to a GALLON of water. See if she’ll eat some scrambled eggs like @kcan2 said. What does her crop feel like? Does her poop look normal?

Update
She sadly passed away yesterday
I know I got all the tic out so I don’t know why she was ill maybe she got a disease from it ?
She doesn’t deserve this she had lost her mum when she was smaller from a fox attack
Her and her friend still needed heat
Her best mate died
I was trying to get her a friend so she wouldn’t be lonely almost got her one the other day luckily I didn’t
And now she has died at least she is with her mum
She was called elf’s baby (her mum was called elf ) so she didn’t even have a name
Rest in peace elf’s baby xx
