Hey all,
I’ve only had chicken for 8 months. They are in a coop and also free range during the day. I came home yesterday and my phantom chicken was stumbling, weak, falling down, and she looks quite skinny. She hasn’t been laying eggs for the past three weeks because of the cold weather and short days. We’re keeping her warm and giving her Epsom salt baths. She only wants to eat watermelon. Her crop seems OK may be a little bit harder than normal. My friend thinks she feels an egg, but isn’t sure. I can’t feel an egg. I think if I can’t figure it out, she might not make it. Any advice would be so greatly appreciated.
