SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME ASAP, MY CHICKEN IS ACTING ODD

[chickens really]

Oh yeah you’re right, I want to take her to the vet but I don’t really have the money for it.. but I’ll just give her regular water, she already ate her normal food

Just feed her regular feed and water. Try and keep her warm. She might recover...

No..A down Bird actually does best on its regular diet because you don't want to cause stomach upset.

That's very misleading because plain yogurt,applesauce, and other foods have good probiotics for chickens and is only used when a bird is NOT well. It's better to not give information if you don't know personally, then to give false information

Honestly she sounds broody to me...
Broody poop can be really gross.

other than having loose stools, her chicken is not acting sick.
So stoping with the treats and other crap for now to see if that clears up her loose stools is a good idea. This chicken is eating and acting fine otherwise.

I started to think that, but she’s really really small.. she’s 6 months, someone told me they start at 9 months, maybe they were wrong.. I’ll give it a day or two

My information isn't false. It's accurate information about Birds. Anyways I was only helping.

I really wish the whole yogurt thing would die. There are very few probiotics left in commercial yogurt to begin with, and chickens don't digest dairy well at all. I can't imagine why applesauce would have any probiotics to begin with.

Anyway, I was just coming to say it sounded like she was looking for somewhere to lay an egg, and lo and behold, that's just what she did
