debsiddle Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Hi everyone, my hen Henni isn't well . She is eating but not much, is more lethargic, and has a yellowy tinge. This has been for about 2 weeks now. She is also moulting a bit. She had her second delvosterone injection just over a week ago, but the yellowy colour and reduced appetite started before this; the moult after. Does anyone have any ideas what it might be, what I can do. My other hen Carol had a respiratory infection, for which she is being treated with antibiotics. I have put 0.5g/litre water of AB in all their drinking water as a precaution. I have very little money left for vets (as I have had a series of ill animals and I am on my own), but I will of course take her if necessary. Any help is gratefully received.

Egghead68 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Could she just be a bit off-colour with the moult? Do you have any tonic you can give her (e.g. nutridrops, lifeguard, poultry spice?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debsiddle Posted May 27, 2013 Author Share Posted May 27, 2013 I'm putting a bird vit supplement over their feed. She is eating things like tuna and maggots, but doesn't really want anything else. She is really losing weight Debs x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
