Hen making a raspy noise

[alcarl]

We let all the girls out this morning and as they were running across the yard I heard her sounding a little different.

She was still drinking ok. Doesn’t seem to be lethargic at all, maybe she was slightly easier to catch but not much.

Hopefully the video will explain better than I ever could. Also, feel free to laugh a little at me turning and keeping a wary eye on Fabio the protective roo

I will add that it wasn’t constant before I picked her up. I’m sure I stressed her a little bit, she’s never been fond of affection.

Oh, and she’s about 5 months old. Free ranging during the day and cooped at night.

Any thoughts?

Did you ever figure it out? Is she OK now? What, if any, treatment did you do?

 

[alcarl]

She's fine. Not sure what it was but it cleared up with no treatment.
