I use a Xylitol, Erythritol, Stevia mixed sweetener. When I make something that my peeps may try, they always get a heads up to not drop crumbs.

Henrietta is on a buttermilk diet I guess. I tried giving her plain water and she said no thank you. I am really glad she is taking anything in by mouth.

If there was something you could learn to do, what would it be?

Explode things with my mind.

I can teach you Nunny. I'm no Helen Keller but I know enough to communicate

I remember most of the alphabet and I know some other signs. Lack of use makes it harder to remember.

Those cute babies.
I just pulled into the school parking lot and a family of Mallard’s with 3 babies were crossing the parking lot.
@staceyj I will try anything to pull her through this! Any suggestions are always welcome! I have focused on this hen for 8 days straight and I am exhausted! I am usually with her when poop hits the papertowels, so I can pick up and use wipes to wipes down the cage floor. She knows how to step around the papertowels as I lay them in 2 or 3 sections.

Have you thought about tube feeding her?
I’ve never tube fed a chicken but I’ve tube fed just about everything else.
It’s not that hard.
And it bypasses the whole not wanting to eat issue.

It is also the best way to keep them hydrated. A hen this size needs 100 ml of fluids daily to maintain normal hydration status, more if she's already dehydrated or has diarrhea.
