headlongrush Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 One of my hens has started to fall over and lay on her side from time to time. After a while, she'll get up and seems ok again. This has been happening for about a week. We haven't taken her to the vet as she seemed to recover but we noticed her on her side again today. Anyone have any ideas what it might be?

sandyhas3chucks Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 she isn't sun bathing is she??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 That's what I thought. Mine stick a wing out as well. If she really is falling over it sounds serious and guess she needs a better check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJ's Chooks Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 sounds like she's sunbathing or dehydrated, I had one in the heat of summer that when she came to me she couldnt use the drinker and got dehydrated. make sure she is drinking....
