My girl is an Ameraucana. She is a little over a year old. I am a first time chicken owner. Two days ago I noticed she wasn't acting like herself. She would go sit by herself and is a bit lethargic. She has not been eating very much. Yesterday I started spoon feeding her her favorite things away from the other birds. She was eating a bit of yogurt and bread and dried worms and drinking a little. This morning she ate a tiny bit and drank a little bit. I have been trying to encourage her to eat and drink but she is really not having that much. I have been feeling her crop throughout the day and it has had hardly anything in it. Her poop has also been weird that past few days. Picture below. Also she is the alpha chicken generally and since she is not feeling well the other birds are picking on her. I have seperated her from the others. Right now she is sitting snuggling with me. I have an appt with the vet tomorrow afternoon. But I am really concerned about her. Any advice would be much appreciated.
