legend21 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I went into the fenced off area to give the girls a treat and one of them is not interested, I watched the others happily eating away but she went under a bush and just stood there with her eyes closed. I had a quick look for lice but dont see any, I will get a better look when OH comes home. She is now in the run on her own and other 5 are outside. I have now moved the other five to the side garden, fenced off happily free ranging and left her in the run, I am hoping it is a softie but just want some feedback from my fellow omleteers that it will all be well Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebird Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 It could well be a softie but at this time of year it seems that a lice or mite infestation can quickly bring a chicken down. You need to thoroughly check your henhouse for any unwanted critters as well. Fingers crossed she perks up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
