Hello,
I searched the threads and cannot find anything similar. I have a young pullet, around 4 or 5 months. In August, she had heat distress. I honestly did not think she would pull through. She made it, but every time it got over 95*F after that, she would lay around panting.
Now, we are heading into the cold weather. She is showing signs of shivering in 30*F weather. She is the only one like this. She is not thin, no mites, seems to be okay otherwise.
Is there anything that would cause a hen to have problems moderating their temperatures? I want to figure out what will help her before we are in the below 0*F temps.
Thank you!
