I've found one of my hens very lethargic two days ago, other symptoms have developed which lead me to infer that it could be egg peritonitis. She now has a bright red comb that is flopping down, and I felt her vent, it's not necessarily hard but it is definitely bloated and tense, her pupils also appear dilated at times. Her weight has gone down and I can feel her keel bone, she hardly eats and just pecks her food. Overall she is definitely weaker and can't balance too well so she just sits around all day hardly moving, I've isolated her in case her disease is contagious and given her separate food and water. After some reading I best believe it is egg peritonitis.
Any general tips on what to do or ideas on what this could be and what the best way to approach it would be?
