I have 9 one year old hens. My ee has been losing feathers, the cause of which has been thought to be mites/lice. This has been there for maybe 1-2 months now. I have tried dieatemacious earth and I've been dusting her every now and then but it doesn't seem to be working. Just today I've noticed she's been clucking a bit weird almost like a broody which she was for a bit before all this and I flipped her on her side to dust her and when I put her right side up she drooled a little clear substance, about a drop or two. Then later she drooled the same thing. I'm confused. She doesn't seem to have much interest in things she used to like such as corn, mealworms, bird seed ext. She's also been quite a bit more cuddle but maybe because I haven't seen her in 2 days. I'm worried I feel like she's sick but I'm not sure. Can someone help me?
