well penelope is my ameraucana. she started out very small when she was a chick always smaller then the others. she turned a year old in January. i went to Virginia in February was gone a month and came home to her missing feathers lost a pound she was eating but not as much as she use too. I searched her for mites or lice and nothing i thought she was molting but i got eggs from her so i ruled that out here i am 2 months later and shes just scaring me. her back is bare, she is eating a tiny bit of food, still no mites or lice she was wormed in January close to February. i dont know what to do i havent gotten an egg from her in two days. i looked at her droppings today and it looks like that frothy caramel colored poo i know thats gross but i dont know how to spell it starts with a c. thank you all in advance she really needs help.
 
please anyone im not trying to bump this i just need a solution. patience i have but time Penelope doesn't have that. ive waited over 3 hours to ask please i just need some input. thank you

i dont really know what to do, or whats wrong with her, maybe u should quarentine her and see if she gets any better, she may just be getting picked on, and the other ones won't let her eat. sorry, and i really hope she gets better
 
just an update on Penelope she is now eating i wet her food with water and she seems to want that. her crop was about the size of my fist today. i guess she just had a problem with the solid foods.until Penelope gets better they will be eating mushy food.
