Her breath smells fine it’s just her back side. I have all my hens on Purina laying mash. I did moisten the food I left for her I have not tried scrambled eggs yet she will eat a little from hand but I have to stand her up and rub her chest.Photos really help if you are able to provide some.
How does her crop feel? Is it empty or can you feel food in it? What sort of feed do you offer your flock?
I would try her with a scrambled egg if she is starting to show a little interest in food. I would offer mainly moist food like that or her usual feed (presumably pellets or crumbles) soaked in warm water to form a mush. You can mix the scrambled egg into this to make it more attractive or a little plain yoghurt with active cultures to help her digestive system.
Does her breath smell or just her back end?
There is no food in there and nothing feels bloated. I will have pictures in the morning when I check on her again
