Hello to you all. My name is Kathy from Farwell Pennsylvania, with hillyerhenhouse
New to this as well as Chickens. Just got eight hens two days ago was told they were just over a year old.
seven rhodeisland reds and one white bannie hen. I purchased them all from the same fellow. Very nice large hens laying very nice large brown eggs, they all seemed to be adjusting fine. YET
last night I noticed that the white bannie hen was not up on the roost with the rest.
then today she seems listlss. keeps off to herself, not scratching and pecking at cracked corn I toss in and I believe she may have the poops,
and if i watch her long enough she seems to want to fall asleep standing still.
Any thoughts on what may be going on? Sure would appreciate any feedback.
Thank you so much, looking forward to getting to know you all.
