ANOTHER POORLY CHOOK - PLEASE HELP

Hi, returned from hols 20 mins ago. Our lady who feeds the hens said one was looking ill and had yellow stuff coming from her beak. She checked on her a little later today and she seemed fine, and reckoned she'd possibly eaten yolk.

On returning tonight, checked on her and she is deffo under the weather. Head under wing - usually they wake up and cluck when we shine a torch in... very lethargic and dull.

She is an ex bat. nearly 3 years old.

Any advice please.

I would see how she is in the morning, as she is an ex batt she is now a ripe old age.

yeah, really not good. won't leave the coop for breakfast, really dull eyes and comb, looks awful TBH. Poor Margo. At least she had a brilliant life having been rescued. :-(

Hello ceix. With regards to yellow stuff coming from beak could it be a blockage in her crop? I would check to see if crop is full of solid or full of fluid. Our ex batt, the last of 4, is nearly 4 years old now.
