Does anyone have an idea what’s going on with my girl? The last 2 days she’s been very lethargic, tonight shes holding her wing out, her comb is pale. She will eat and drink, but tonight is laying down to eat. My hens are about 18-20 weeks old. Some of them started laying eggs yesterday.

I’ve checked her egg bound, internal exam revealed no egg. No parasites/worms in her stool. I gave her an epson salt soak last night just in case.

No signs/symptoms of sour/impacted crop.

I’m at a lose any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello sorry to hear about your chicken. How is she today?

The picture makes it look like she is having issues with her neck/head and ability to stand. Is she able to stand? How about holding her neck up? Is she having balance issues?

Give her a good once over for lice/mites; you’ll find them more under the wings, near the vent and in other warmer areas.

Was her crop empty this morning?
