I just took an older Hen 5-6 years from a friend bc the rest of the flock was taken from predators. I'm pretty new to raising chickens. I don't know what breed she is. Haven't had to deal with many health issues with my flock.
This hen may have mites on her feet and her abdomen is not right. I gave her a warm soapy bath scrubbed her feet and rubbed with olive oil, and about to give probiotics and deworm, but it seems from what I've read there isn't much you can do about the abdomen except draining with a needle and vet consult/antibiotics and likely a bigger issue. Her comb and everything seems pretty healthy tho?

I ran out of gloves, hence the bags. Any feedback would be appreciated.
