Poorly chuck
« on: January 12, 2008, 10:59 »
One of our chickens is looking off-colour this morning. :(
She just sat in the hen house with her feet curled up and wouldn't come out to feed (she is usually the first one out!).
We've given her backside a wash as it was quite mucky.  Her poos have been an off-white colour liquid this morning and she isn't talking very much.
We wormed her with Flubenvet in the first week of January - so it is unlikely to be worms.

Has anyone got any ideas please :?:

Sounds like a vets consultation needed to me.  :(

Perhaps some antibiotics would help.  If you feel under her wing near the joint is she warmer that the other girls, if she is it could indicate that she has an infection.

Well, the good news is that Goldie was the first one out of the hen house  this morning and ran straight to the food :D
No idea what was wrong with her yesterday - but she seems to be back to her normal self.
Now we just need to teach her that she should be laying some eggs! :roll:
