heyy!!
Please help.
I have this one chicken that has never looked quite as good as other chooks. Her comb stopped looking nice just a little Bit after she started laying. And for months now she has this bare spot on her neck, no feathers, at first i thought she was moulting, but it still looks the same. And she also suddenly started being aggressive and bully my small bantam chooks aswell. She will purposefully separate from the flock just to go and chase n peck them.
She has been dusted for mites n lice.
She has been wormed recently.
And tonight i went past the chooks and where they sleep i noticed something water like. And then i picked up that chicken and her face was all mucusy and her butt feather were wet aswell. I put her down and she just stood there drinking and drinking and drinking nonstop, and then it started coming up, she stopped for a bit and them continued drinking. On the ground then i noticed wet spots aswell, with tiny bits of greenish poo in them.
Its like colorless watery mucus
Coming out of both ends. I thought first maybe sourcrop but theres no smell, crop was full of liquid with a bit of grain in the bottom. Cuz i have treated sour crop already before i took her outside and made her vomit, And took her away from food and water for now. While holding her she squirted out this massive amount of colourless watery mucus w no poo in it at all.
I would go for sour crop but the missing feathers and nasty looking comb thats never changing makes me think there might be a bigger issue.
Update:
Also she is violently looking for water right now. I removed all sources and she is just climbing stuff and doing weird stuff to get to water... she seems SO thirsty, before i got all water put away she already snuck inti bantams sleeping area and got to drink so much so fast that crop is full again.
Appreciate thank u !!!
