Title: Poorly Hen
Post by: JMF on June 02, 2014, 15:13

Hi can anyone help please - one of our Chickens seems really poorly - she has been extremely broody for the past two weeks - despite doing everything possible to stop her.  Now today she is very listless, not interested in food and is just standing looking really unwell - just checked her tail end and she seems to be passing bright green poo with undigested grass in it - any suggestions as to what it might be.  Thank you

she might not have been eating and drinking. try her with mixed corn to get her eating and water available as well. it might be worthwhile moving her indoors in a box to keep an eye on her.
what debroody tries have you used?
