I have a hen that was fine 2 days ago. Yesterday she was standing in the run with her eyes closed. Separated her. No appetite, her eyes are clear, no respiratory issues, empty crop, not egg bound, no mites or lice. She had a small brown liquid poop. She's also been trying to peck at her lower abdomen. Since her crop is empty can I assume she may have a blockage lower down in her digestive tract? I've given her a small amount of coconut oil to see if it would break up the blockage. Anyone try Metamucil and Papaya enzymes? Suggestions?
