Hi everyone. Today I noticed that one of my 24 wk old Buff Chantecler hens sounded a bit hoarse & gravely when she spoke. I spend a lot of time w/ my hens and have never heard this before. BUT she's not a "talker" so I wondered if this wasnt her normal sound. I also noticed the other day that she is a loud breather. I could hear the air passing thru her nostril as she sat near my head. She dosent seem stuffy in anyway. There is no discharge from her nostrils. But now with the hoarse voice, I'm worried. I've been searching thru the postings but not sure what to do. She seems to be eat well. Have not seen her drink, tho. Otherwise looks and acts fine. Felt her throat, neck, crop, etc. nothing abnormal. I could not look down her throat. Should I be worried?! Suggestions would be great!
Thanks
