All of them have always been pretty fluffy and healthy. Including ezzy the chicken in question. She does look like she is losing weight. The rest are good. Little fluff bums.
something just seems off weight wise with ezzy. I mean she eating drinking poop producing eggs but she seems smaller thrn normal. So of course my mind went crazy and I googled the weight of they are supposed to be and it said rir are average of 6.5 lbs a bird. And my chickens are no where near that. I broke out the scale and weighed them just to prove to my self for sure they aren't and nope they aren't. I will get some safegaurd today and try that I see egg with draw for equine past is 10 days then treat again in 10 days so we are looking at 20 days no eggs. I'm only getting 2 q day as it is. I have 1 broody whom I cannot break for the life of me. 1 who had a lash egg and hasn't laid since then and the lou lou and ezzy. Off to medicate the birds.
Yes I can feel it pretty well.
Thats a sign that she is too thin. In addition to the float test, to check for worms, I would try to get some additional nutrients in. Try adding some poultry cell to their water or to wet feed 2 times a week, giving them a can of tuna once a weeks, etc. Be sure that she isn't getting pushed away from the food bowl.
Her tongue I will look at today. No odor at all coming from her. And she is the mean one out of the group lol she is head hen. She lays like clock work big beautiful thick shelled eggs ever morning at 7:30. She is acting normal eating playing drinking picking on the broody gen (we don't have eggs in the nest she just wants to be a momma)
I checked her tongue it is a pink color
