Hi everyone
I recently moved house, and in the weeks since moving until today, my two chickens went to stay with someone I know who also has chickens. When we went to pick up our girls today, we saw that our black rock isn't well. Her comb has shrunk, her breast was wet and she seems to have lost feathers from her front. Also her feet look very pale. The people weren't in who have been looking after the girls for me, so I haven't been able to speak to them. The other chicken is fine and well. Once we got them home and into their new run here, the black rock actually seemed to perk up somewhat. Do you think she could be stressed out? or has been picked on by the other chickens at the place they were staying? I don't know if this is relevant or not, but she had stopped laying (don't know if she started while she was away), and also today she seemed to be making funny purring like noises.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to lose my girl. She is not two years old yet
Thank you in advance
