I have a sick 6 month old free range RI Red. No bird vet around (less than $100). I also have another hen, same age, seems fine.
A week ago, the neighbor dog got in and killed my two silkies. Red got to the coop, but was shaken up and losing some feathers. She seemed to get over it. But 4 days later, she quieted down (usually quite loud when hungry). She doesn't move all day, and when she does a little, she has a limp. She laid an egg that had some small, dark, hard splotched on it. Hasn't laid another since three days ago. I searched for a blocked egg, but found nothing. She has pooped very little, but when she does it is firm, light green/white. No nasal discharge. White around her vent. Eating/drinking less and less. I've given her ground up calcium tablet, yogurt, garlic (for possible worms)
We got a puppy three weeks ago that is being treated for roundworms.
What do you think I should do?
