In a similar incident with one of my "girls" I gave her a lttle magnesium & put her to soak in plain epsom salts about 1/2 hour, patted her dry & gave her a low heat blow dry. It was bedtime by then & made her a little bed close to me & she was good as new next day.

Maybe a castor oil pack & keeping a warm heating pad on her abdomen. This worked on a juvenile raccoon my dog found. Poor thing kept crying & crying as if in a lot of pain - no sign of injury. He went to sleep in short order with the castor oil pack to his tummy & slept until 10 am! when I got him up the next morning. He was his old self after that.

I had an excruciating popliteal cyst & crippled from it. A heating pad & castor oil pack on my knee while I slept applied before bed time & I walked my dog 2 miles the next morning & avoided surgery the doc wanted to perform. That was 18 years ago - still have the cyst & only 1 minor flare up 10 years ago.
I pray for your sweetie's complete recovery.

Oh god... Another one of my hens is now displaying respiratory symptoms. She's breathing with her mouth open and doing this weird, miserable sounding cough... I attached a video below. When she does this occasionally some mucus will fly put of her mouth. What can this be? The same as the other bird, or some new disease?

Are you giving the E and BComplex supplements to the first pullet? She looks very weak and rubber legged. I hope it is not a sign of Mareks. The second one has a cough or sneeze. Is that also what the first one did? Have you added any new birds recently or has anyone with their own flock been near yours? It could be something like infectious bronchitis, a respiratory virus, but watch for any eye foam or other symptoms.

I have been giving her B vitamin complex nutritional yeast every day, she doesn't seem to be improving at all. The sneeze that the second one is doing I have never seen the first one do, but they both had the wide open mouth breathing and mucusy breath sounds. However, the second hen seems much improved since this morning; she's no longer coughing or breathing strangely at all. The first pullet is in about the same condition as she has been, with labored breathing and weak legs. We haven't added new birds recently and we don't know anyone with their own flock... could they have gotten a virus from the wild birds?
