Mollie333 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Maya my Blue Frizzle Polish looks terrible. She has been all fluffed up in the run for 2 days now. I've brought her in cause i thought she might be cold.. And she is now in my jumper snuggled up, sleeping. I don't know what to do. Her airway is clear and eyes seem fine. I don't know what it could be.. Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Heck Mollie are her droppings ok? Have you considered a soft egg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippy chick Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 You are doing the right thing by bringing her inside. Just keep her warm and make sure that she is eating and drinking. I hope that she perks up for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia W Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Don't delay in taking her to the vet if she doesn't perk up. Some Polish hens seem to be inbred and can be delicate. We've lost two this way Tricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 I thought soft egg, but shes not started laying yet. Shes gone into the coop with the others (Riah wont be quiet without her.. it was like she was shouting her. ) I contacted the breeder and she said if i'd like to bring her down then i could. So i will do that, if my dad will take me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlady Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Sometimes giving a few drops of sugar water can perk them up a bit. How is she today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mollie333 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 Shes a bit better today.. Dad can't take me to Pages Poultry untill friday because he works. Will give her some mealworms and sugar water and see how she goes for now. Its almost like shes cold..Maybe a hot water bottle .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Does her chest sound rattly? If so, you'd be better off taking her to a vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
