My leghorn looks sad really. She usually lays an egg a day but I havent seen one from her in a while. Shes only a year old. She is open mouthed panting a lot lately, even when I brought her inside. I was able to easily go and pick her up which was my first sign something was wrong as she is super flighty. Very watery poop but it's so hot and humid here it could be due to her drinking more, however, I offered her an egg today and she just looked at it. Big red flag because all my chickens LOVE eggs, especially freshly cracked ones. Shes constantly open mouthed panting but again not sure if it is really heat or distress and her normally bright comb is a sad pale red that looks like it almost has a spider web over it (it's not one I checked) oh she also looks like she might have a runny nose
I'm thinking I need to worm? My flock has never been wormed so I'm not even sure what to use. I have easy access to tractor supply and other feed stores. Any advise is greatly appreciated! Pretty worried about her
