Update:
I carried Cheepers to a Vet.
Good news: Did a stool exam. No Coccidiosis. No lice or mites. No worms. He did not suspect Mereks. Doesnt think its something i should worry about the rest of the flock getting. Call him immediately if others in the flock start acting the same.
Bad news: Still nothing solid on why she is acting this way. She was thin. Her crop empty. He suspects something intestinal but nothing was conclusive. She probably got into something.
Put her on Albon for five days. Bring her back on Monday
She is isolated. She drinks and eats very little. She has scrambled eggs, vitamin water, regular water, grit in her "hospital room" but doesnt seem that intersted. Her poop still looks like the above picture. She looks so sad and is calling out to her flock mates.
All we can do at this point is wait and see. So frustrating! The vet visit was well worth it. I learned so much! It also made me more confident that I know a little about what I am doing after 2 years of chicken ownership Gave me a little more confidence.
