How old is the bird?
How long have you had the bird...

And when was the last/most recent time you brought any new to you bird home?

Have you ever dewormed them?

Are you still feeding daily treats?

Are they laying daily/regularly?

I just finished the 21 day worming
I feed crumbles, mixed scratch, meal worms
no they have been sporadic, I’m lucky to get 1 egg every other day. They recently finished moulting

What exactly is a 21 day worming?

You feed scratch and meal worms daily? This is not good.

Sorry I gave VetRX in their water
meal worms yes, why not good ? Should only feed crumbles ?

Mealworms are extremely high in fat. Feeding a high fat diet can only led to overweightness. Overweightness in a chicken is an extremely small amount that is not obvious when just looking at a bird. Overweightness alone will cause serious issues.

A balanced diet is the best prevention of serious issues.
A balanced diet is age appropriate crumbled or pelleted feed. Daily mealworms or scratch is basically feeding them candy or cookies each day.
