Lethargic Hen, Not Eating or Moving

Thank you for the update. Although it was expected to happen it is always sad when we are unable to help and lose a member of our flock. :hugs
Thank you. :hitLuela was my fave! We lost one other this year, Cassie, to a bobcat attack. I wasn’t terribly attached to her so therefore didn’t grieve too much. But I do miss my Big Lu.
 
My hen began falling sick a week ago then stopped eating and was wobbling.the vet diagnosed calcium deficiency and gave me liquid calcium. She ate a little sweet potatoe and pear then stopped. Vet gave me powder food. Over 2 days she’s become worse. Eyes closed, not moving, not eating. Started trisulmix again today. X-ray showed leg mended but broken at the top, from osteoporosis I presume. Today it looks like I’m losing her. She’s still drinking. I’m feeding her the powder mix, vet said 4 times a day but it’s so little I’ll feed more often. Vet also prescribed Inflacam fir a few days and Enrox. Don’t know what else to do. Very sad.
