Hi everyone

 

My chook produced what I think is a lash yesterday (it was a white jelly kind of thing) and since then she's been very quiet, remaining still and closing her eyes a lot, not eating but has been drinking quite a bit. She went into the nesting box this morning for about 1.5 hours and came out to stand near the glug. She looks really sorry for herself and quite frankly I don't know what to do. Berny and Bob are happy chickens - going about their usual business but Hermione doesn't look good. I'm worming the girls this week when I get my order through from Omlet and will put some tonic in the water.

 

What do worms look like?

 

Any advice and possible diagnosis would be much appreciated.

Pat I think a lash is when they lay the white but no yolk or something like that.
