My pullet began standing around with one eye closed and sleeping a lot four days ago. If I go in and try to grab her she perks up and has energy. She seems somewhat better in the mornings, but gets more tired in the afternoon.
Her breathing seems fine, eye isn’t swollen, no discharge, no cough or sneeze.
She has loud, watery diarrhea as well.
I treated the whole flock for poultry lice with revenge horsefly spray the same day I noticed her starting to drag, but she may have been more subtly slowing down before. I do not see any live lice on her now, but there are eggs.
She isn’t panting at all, despite high heat and everyone else panting. Nobody else has any of these issues.
I have offered yogurt, electrolyte-laced jello with blueberries and veggies, and started corid.
She shows interest in food and pecks it but I can’t tell if she is swallowing or just pecking. She is drinking reliably.
I’m totally stumped. She hasn’t gotten better or worse in 4 days.
Any ideas?!
