This morning, after I got up, I noticed my Three-year old Black Australorp hen, "Precious" was sitting on the porch, looking like she was sleeping.
I picked her up, and she woke up. I Immediately gave her (and all the girls) some plain yogurt. I also gave all of them clean water with tetracycline in it.
Her crop feels normal, her waddle and comb are about the same temp as the other girls.
I saw her poop, and it was largely solid, but a little bit of liquid in it. I Also felt her rear and it feels like she laid her egg. Her vent is clear, and she feels like she is about the same weight as normal.
She does get up and walk around-it's just she's tired more than usual.
BTW, it about 74 outside. Could the heat be making her tired? I don't want to lose one of our sweetest hens.
