I know this is way off subject from chickens but my filly about 3 is pretty skinny accept her tummy. Why is this? What can i give her?

Sounds like worms to me....When was the last time she was wormed? When were her teeth floated last? What are you feeding her? What's her age?

worms
you posted this in the wrong place.
I would get a good wormer for her from your vet.
And she need to be on a good feed with full turn out on grass pasture.

worms...de-worm him/her

I agree as well. It's usually a sign of worms.

Yes, sounds like worms to me. Also if she is sunk in at the flank it could mean she needs more water.
