SICK HEN PLEASE HELP!

[Cinnamon11]

My hen is acting similarly, she isn't eggbound but I'm not sure what is wrong with her. Commenting to follow the thread

Hope both our hens get better!

Also try to feed her greens

it has been very tricky getting her to eat so I doubt she will eat greens. It seems like she wants to eat but it’s hard for her to swallow anything but the watery mash.

Also is this the right medication?

Ok so I am feeding her and she is in fact having diarrhea.

I’m tagging our poop queen, and great with medicines and dosages too. @casportpony

Ok just feed her what she can then

that's pretty bad diarrhoea, near to no 'food poop' in it, she probably hasn't been eating much for a while I'm guessing?
You said her crop is full considering shes not eating much, has it been emptying overnight?
Because she has bad diarrhoea, you need to keep her hydrated, anything you can give her with electrolytes in it will help.
What makes you think she has coccidiosis? Have you found any blood in her poop? If so, how long for?
In my opinion you need to get her to a vets at this point, but there may be someone else on here with far more experience than I who thinks otherwise...

I’m trying! She’s making it difficult but I’m not giving up on her!

Yesterday is when I noticed her acting lethargic so I’m not really sure if her crop has been emptying out overnight but it did yesterday morning. She is getting electrolyte water and I’m feeding her often. She’s got most of the symptoms and someone on here said it might be coccidiusis. There is not blood in her poop (from what I’ve seen).
