Is that a sign of heart failure?

Hello all I am sorry for the late update my buff ORP hen is happy and back to normal after I drained fluid off. She had acites now she is back following me around the tractor supply lady said ring her neck. She should see penny now. Thanks for the concern.

Welcome to BYC. Glad to hear about the positive 'turn around'. Understand that the condition is very likely to return.

Hey sour land I know but prolonging her life was worth it to me. She came in my house today for a snack(her and turkey come to back door I let them in for a snacks) but she will need draining again soon. She is very happy and keeping up with friends which is far better than her previous condition which was unable to walk eat etc..
