My chickens is dying! Help

[ilovmychicks]

This is so awful I came out this morning first off my other hens have been picking on her for the last week and a half so I have been taking care of her putting her in her own little cage with hay on the front porch and been doing everything I could to keep her happy I come up this morning and to let her out and she just flopped over on her side and she just feels hard and she's breathing real heavy what can I do I don't want her to suffer I think it's way past doing anything about it. I just don't know what to do you guys I wonder what happened? Please say a prayer I've been praying to God to please take her so she don't suffer she's just not a chicken to me she's my baby girl oh this is so awful.!!!

Thank you dear. I can't quite crying. I hate that she's suffering

 

[ilovmychicks]

Is it possible that she could just be really sick but come out of it..? Maybe try and get some vet rx into her? Or should we put her out of her misery?

I'm very sorry to hear she is not doing well.

Any information you can give us may help:
What are her symptoms - coughing, sneezing, runny nose?
Leg paralysis?
How old is she?
What does her poop look like?

If she look like she is suffering or in pain, the kindest thing to do is to end it. We aren't there to see what's happening, so whatever decision you make will be the right one.

If she is suffering, I would end it for her. Need more info in order to help you. Age? Symptoms? Whats poop look like?

 

[Allymally]

Not something I would wish on my worst enemy. If you feel your girl is suffering no you can manage it why don't you let your vet see her and do what's necessary to end her suffering. Kind thoughts are with you xx

 

[ilovmychicks]

Okay no sneezing coughing runny nose I don't know if her legs are paralyzed because she won't stand up. her poop is watery White and she is 3 years old

I've lost so many chicks already and I still have not learned enough to help you. The one thing that I haven't heard mentioned is if her body temperature is cold from the night outside maybe she needs to be put under heat lamp carefully, making sure you give her water not to dehydrate with yes electrolytes like you mentioned. Their body temperature should be from 103-107. If She's an air conditioning or if it was rainy or moist or cool last night maybe that will help. That actually saved one of my escapees from this stupid premier one fence that isn't working for me the other night. Found in the morning after a rainy night only three months old.
