Hen seems dizzy/off balance/can't hardly stand

I have a second hen with the same thing ! First one has died and second one is getting there. It’s the weekend but I only have three other hens so need to find out what it is and is it contagious!? I’m devastated but somewhat relieved that it’s not just my hens! Thank you
Welcome to BYC. This is a 9 year old thread, so to get more people to see and help you, I would start a new thread of your own in the emergency forum. Be specific with all of the symptoms you have seen, including ages and treatment that you have given. Here is where to post it, and click on the green box:

I have a chicken with the same issue, she was eating very little, is not laying any eggs, she is alert but not able to walk without stumbling or even falling, she does have which looks like diarhea stuck to her butt. I thought she may have coccidiosis but there is no blood in the diarrhea, I have been giving her amprolium by syringe little less than half of 0.5 ml, thinking it would help her which I read on another website, any ideas how I can help her before she dies.

I have a hen with these same symptoms. Did you ever figure it out? I don’t have a single vet near me that is willing to see chickens.
