Hello everyone!
I am new to having chickens but have done a ton amount of research on them. We have RIR Hen who is about a 1.5yrs, egg-cellent egg layer, pretty relaxed and we introduced her to our flock about a week ago. On Friday, we found her hunched in a corner of the run very wet, dirty, and smelly. She had yellow-clearish liquid coming it of her mouth and was barely moving. We isolated her immediately and she ate and drank only a little.
Not much improvement over the last few days. Her vent was covered in runny poop (yellowish brown) so we gave her a warm bath and blow dried her. We replaced her water and food with apple cider vinager water. Any idea what it maybe? It has. Even super hot here with the index of 105*F.
Thank you again!
