My red sex link has been acting funny since the 5th.She began to lay down a lot and stopped eating a while after. She was laying runny, light brown poo. She's a little younger than a year old. The other chickens have been avoiding her since we've gotten her. At first I thought she was egg bound, but found that there wasn't an egg in her, just a hard lump about the size of a golf ball.
Now she's started something new.
She has been looking around vacantly, and seems surprised when I touch her. She's laying down for good now, and has given up on following the other free range chickens.I think she's lost her vision. In addition to that, she's been looking straight up at the sky. Her crop is also empty, save for some mush from a hard oiled egg I fed her.
My father's probably going to cull her tonight, put her out of her misery.
Do any of you have a guess as to what caused this?
