How old is this chicken, how long have you had her, what meds are you giving her, what is the smell? Do you live near a Tractor Supply?
I got her beginning Of October, and I think they were about 6-8weeks old at that time so approx 5 months
How I have been treating her: I put 5ml in there water of tetracyline powder and refresh it every 24 hours. Also I have been spraying her with Vetericyn in her face/ eyes her eyes look better, but now she seems to have a very runny nose. Again she seems to be showing improvement till I noticed her sitting away from my other 3 girls last night and her feathers looked a mess ( Not sure if they are picking on her now, but they where all good the other day, not sure what happened) My Other 3 where sitting under the heat lamp I have out for them, she was away from that, near the food.
How I am now treating her ONLY ( As of last night): upped the dose to 10ml in each ( water & Food) and have her in the house, with water, and her food all treated with the tetracyline powder.
She just stinks, This morning it did not smell in the area she is in, until she started to moved around, It smells like chicken, but very strong, garbage kinda of smell maybe, sweet and stinky. She is mouth breathing, when she shakes her head, fluid flys off ( Snot?) and when she does eat I notice she like chokes it down? She extends her neck and her feather will fluff out as she try's to swallow...
She is the one in my picture! FYI
