We have a brown hen no idea of breed, she is 2. She stopped laying about a year ago now after laying soft shelled and then no shelled eggs but as she was healthy we kept her, well just because.
Today she hasn't moved, isn't interested in food, I let them out and she is just standing there and didn't want to come out.
I just picked her up and she is very wheezy.
Now do I take her to the vet and get her put to sleep, I really don't want to pay out on vet fees for meds if she isn't even laying. I really don't fancy the idea of dispatching her myself as I wouldn't have the first idea as to what to do but I also don't want her passing it on to the others if she has something.
Any ideas?
