Hi,
I've read through a lot of the lethargic chicken threads and am just not convinced our chicken has some of the issues previously posted.
Anyways, our hen is a year old, always has been healthy never a problem. No other hickeys in our 8 chicken flock has any problems.
2 days ago she got lethargic but was still walking around and eating and drinking. Yesterday she didn't eat much at all. Today she didn't get out of the roost, we fed her a chicken mash with water in a eye dropper.
We are about to go to the store to get a de wormer and some poultry dust as well as some vitamin booster?
We have never dusted our chickens or de wormed them. Since we've had our first flock which is up on 2 years total now.
We did lose a chicken about 2 months ago mysteriously, we think she may have eaten a roach that could have eaten fertilizer in another shed. If this hen did the same, is there anything we can do for her?
Thanks for any help, we don't want to lose her, she is super sweet.
