mags56 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I have four hens. One is 3 years old and has stopped laying and has started to sit down a lot and snooze.... I am hoping that this is just because she is getting older and it comes to us all. I have checked her over for lice and mites, checked her crop and vent which is all fine. She does have some poo stuck to her feathers... Other than this her feathers are beautiful and her comb nice and red, she gobbled down some porridge I made for her and is drinking. She just doesn't seem to have the energy the other younger girls have.... THey are all due a worm which I am doing this weekend, but other than that should I be worried? Is she just approaching her Autumn Years? Your advice is, as always, much appreciated..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Could be but I'd keep an eye open for other signs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
