nessa32 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 One of my 18 month old chickens doesn't look too good. She sits with her body looking hunched and her comb looks quite shrunken. She is eating and drinking but not laying. She was molting and may still be. She did have diarrhea and a very messy rear end but that seems to have dried up since having wormed her and treated her organically (garlic, cider vinegar etc.). Any ideas?

Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Can I ask what you wormed her with? Have you felt her tummy - if it's hot and swollen feeling, it may be peritonitis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
