idontevenlikeeggs Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Hi there, 2/9 chickens have developed lethargy and drooping wings since the cold snap yesterday. They are still eating food. Both of them have always been poorly and I've always managed to nurse them back to health but this isn't looking great - the drooping wings in particularly are worrying me. They have been in their coop throughout this bird flu warning but little birds manage to get in sometimes and I am worried they might have caught it - I am not sure if to get in contact with DEFRA that they might cull them all without testing any of them? What should I do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Might be a bit late now, but I would contact a vet and see what they say. They’ll be able to help to figure out if your hen's symptoms fit with avian influenza. Hope they perked up in the meantime! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
