Hello Everyone,
I think I have a sick hen. She is about 8 mos. old and is a Barred Rock. She was sitting in her nesting box all day yesterday and last night. This morning she was still sitting. (No eggs). My wife said she ate a little this morning while she was feeding the others. I took her out of the coop and separated her. Mushed up some chick medicated feed and put her in a different cage. She wasn't happy about that and squawked up a storm. She settled down after a while but you can tell she isn't happy.
It doesn't look like marek's disease and her croup seems fine. Not sure what is going on. Any other idea's would be helpful.
Thank you
