    Her waddle is very pale and is hanging her tail down. She wont move much but when she does, she poops a yellow mucus.
    She is panting more than the other hens. Im afraid I might lose her. Can anyone help me. I live in Mississippi and cant find a local vet to see to her. They simply wont even talk to you about it.

    Sounds similar to what I'm going through now.
    She could be eggbound, or internal layer.

    Lookup some of the threads related to both and you will find more details.

    Best of luck to you and her!
