Now What?! The hen with yolk discharge and droopy!<GROSS PIC>

[chuckzoo]

Wow, I am sorry to hear that!

Is she eating /drinking alright?

How are her poops?

Could she be going into a molt? My one BR was like that when she was going through a mini molt. She was very droopy for quite some time and ate very little. I was very worried about her and kept on trying to feed her to get her to perk up. She came around fine and made up for the time she hadn't eaten!

Have you checked her out properly?

Well, chuckzoo.. I'm not sure what to think now.
Put her in the carrier last night expecting the worst, and this morning she was at the door waiting for me. As soon as I opened it, she jumped out and starting making noises at me. I fed her scrambled eggs and she went right after it. Also looked like she drank the water. Again, I just put her back in with the other girls, and they all were treated to some yogurt. She was obviously happy to be back with them.
Today, when my human girls got home she was up on one of the outside perches, and tonight she's back on the inside perches with the rest.

Still don't know if she's laying. We only got 5 eggs yesterday and 6 today.

But, whatever it was going on with her has hopefully passed and she's now rested and feeling better.

Thanks again for your help!

Again, she sounds OK. She may need a little time to get over her incident.

You have some very pretty hens by the way.

Hello goldengirl.

How's she doing now?

Hi chuckzoo!
She's doing great!

Back on perch, acting totally normal.
Still don't know who is laying, only 7 out of 9 today, but that's okay.
I'm feeling much better about her recovery.

Thanks so much for checking up on us.
I love this site and all the wonderful folks like you who are soo willing to help.
