Sick Chicken - lingering on.......

[cbdiann]

Her comb is normal, but the other chickens picked the feathers off her head. 3 weeks of slowly getting worse is what doesn't make sense and now she can't even control her legs.

Are her droppings dark green?

 

[Peep-Chicken]

Is she acting paralyzed?

 

[cbdiann]

They did go through a green stage - but yesterday they were runny and brown and a few bubbles. Today I see nothing so far,

When she tries to do anything her legs move, but they just slide around underneath her and splay out.

Hmm, doesn't sound like Mareks yet. Mareks is comete paralyzation.

What one does her poop look like?

None of those pics looks like her poop. Hers is more watery.

I am really not too sure. Hopefully someone more experienced can help.

I would just keep her comfortable. If she's not eating her layer food, you can try some scrambled eggs.

Any blisters or scabs on her feet? Look underneath her feet too.

Good luck with Claire.

Thank you Peep Chicken! I know it's so hard to figure out sometimes. I've done so much research, but nothing totally fits her symptoms. I just know she's getting worse. Now I have to go pick up my Son and he's going to be so upset.
