Happy Easter to you all.

My lovely 3 1/2 year old hybrid hen had a odd turn this morning .She ran over to me and then seemed to almost faint ,her legs gave way and then semmed to be a bit spaced out.It was hot in the garden but no way near as hot as it has been?? All it bit odd as she is now back to her normal self running around the garden.....any ideas ??

Thankyou.

It could be dehydration over a couple of days. Can she get to water unhindered? Just keep an eye on her to see if she's drinking normally and it may be worth putting a tonic in the water to give her back some of the salts she may have lost.
