I’m wondering about the aloe detox. I’ve seen that sometimes people order it online, but can I make my own? I have several aloe Vera plants.I'd try to keep her washed up so flies don't lay egg on her bottom, that can cause Flystrike.
Having an abdomen that feels like it has fluid (symptom Ascites), likely she's having trouble with a reproductive disorder. EYP, Salpingitis, Cancer and/or organ dysfunction are a few common causes of the symptom seen in laying hens.
Sometimes draining fluid or even giving an aloe detox may be helpful in making the hen more comfortable for a period time. The antibiotics may have temporarily given some relief so she felt better.
