Me too. Rub her neck in case she has food stuck.

Why do you deworm every month and what did you use for it?

If you do use the right medication there will be no need for deworming every month.

I worm them all once a month

What de-wormer do you use? How much do you give? Do you give it orally or in the water?

I’ll have to go check later. I usually give it orally but if I’m having trouble or don’t have enough time to do each chicken one by one I just put it in the water.

What wormer and how much? Must know. Can you go look now?

Off topic but I’m amazed people’s chickens let them pet them like that

She follows me around and asks for attention all the time so I was really worried when she didn’t come out this morning to greet me

I just watched your video and she seems to have a crop issue. Feel the crop, is it hard like a golf ball or soft and squishy?

I would stop the random de-worming. Some dewormers are not safe and can do more harm than good when overdosing.

It’s squishy with a few biggish hard bits in it.
