New England.. the cold part.
My 1 1/2 year old delaware is ill. She's missing a bunch of feathers already, from a bad roo, and isn't growing them back like she should, even with supplemental protein. Her eyes are half closed too, and have been for a few days/ a week, but I just thought she was grouchy, and didn't really compare her eyes to the other's ROUND eyes.... any ideas?
 
Boy, I wish I could help. That could be so many things. Is she still eating? If you had some more info that would probably really help someone try to figure this out.

Good luck!
 
describe the droppings..color and consistency
have you checked well for mites?
has she been wormed?

please describe any symptoms you can think of.
is she sleepy?
any mucus or crust in the eyes?
is she eating?
when did she last lay an egg?
could she be in molt?
is she wheezing?
is she able to walk normally?

what all do you feed?
