hi!!
if you know my other posts about my chicken you"ll problay know that she is ok!
but she recently she has been going to sleep eairler an 1 hour before sunset,
here in uk it goes dark at 6pm now
and before she was broody she would sit nice a poofy in her hutch but now she just sits maybe its beacaes its warmer??
but she has lost all her cute chicken fat and it looks like she is from a factory farm
I did take her to the vet and she said " one of the heathiest chickens iv seen here, but on the skinny side!"
I gave her 2 teasoop cows cream and she looks more enery e more today
thank u!! this website is the best
 
Chicken fat may be cute but that doesn't signify a healthy chicken. Fat hens don't lay well and are prone to early death.
Being thin may be from eating sparingly through broodiness or possibly parasites. Did the vet take and read a fecal sample?
You're fortunate to have a vet that will see poultry.
