coco Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 I have a broody hen and ths morning she is sneezing and preening herself a lot. She has been out free ranging this morning and seems fine in herself. I have checked her for mites and couldn't see anything but gave her a dusting with Diatom anyway. could it be an allergy to shavings as she is spending a lot of time sitting on them as she has thrown the straw out of the nest box.

Space Chick Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Quite possibly an allergy. To be on the safe side, I would listen to her chest to check she doesn't sound rattly, if she does a trip to the vets would be wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
