Please help! Chicken fell into pond and won't move

[SantaLucia]

You can keep her in tonight as she is probably exhausted and youll also be able to monitor her and make sure she is eating and drinking, that's the best option. If she seems ok and like the other chickens aren't bothering her and she can roost that's probably fine. But you won't be able to monitor if she's acting ok or if the others are bothering her.

It's good that she ate something and that she has no wounds. As long as she's acting normal and whatnot she'll be just fine.

Keep us updated I hope Cashew feels better in a little bit, she's really cute.

Love this story likewise I just found one of our hens lying in the pond wet and in shock. Put her in the sun to dry off and have now bought her inside and used the hairdryer and kept her warm in the washing basket with water and corn! for tomorrow

I would check her vent just to make sure there is nothing going on back there that might have motivated her to go into the water, such as a wound, infection, eggbound, flystrike, anything at all. But understand I always fear the worst, lol, hopefully she's fine.
