My chicken has previously struggled with sour crop but now suddenly after she’s gotten better for the last month I noticed she’s been a little lethargic. Now she is quite lethargic and eating very little unless it’s snacks. Here are her symptoms:
-Runny droppings
-Poopy butt
-Pale comb
-Lethargy
-Lack of appetite
-Lack of interest
-Standing around and sleeping a lot
She’s about 3 years old now so I’m not sure if egg production is really relevant because she’s barely been laying eggs since the start of this year
My mom is suspecting worms. If it is worms what dewormer should I use? Is safeguard dewormer for goats an ok dewormer? I’m not sure if worms are contagious but considering my chicken has been acting a little weird for about a month now I don’t understand why my other chickens are completely fine. Is it worth deworming her or just taking her straight to the vet?
