Poorly hen

<< < (2/4) > >>

Jesse:
Practical Poultry forum is quite good with advice as well. Make sure she is kept somewhere warm if you can, hens can go downhill quickly if they get chilled and perhaps keep her away from the others to avoid spreading infection/virus if that is what she has.

How is she today northener?

northener:
I think shes eggbound after reading the above links [thanks]. I've had her soaking in warm soapy water for a good half hour. DRyed her off and put her in a guinea pig cage at side of radiator. I have to work now but hope to be back about 2 ish.

Trixiebelle:
OOPS! SORRY ... after reading this back I think I got 'the wrong end'  ::) That'll teach me to post early in the morning.

Heldi:
How is she Northener?

northener:
Just got back from vets afraid there was nothing they could do. Vet said she had prolapsed and because of the swelling they could'nt get the egg out. Vet put her to sleep.
