((thank you....))

Last night at bedtime, her litter-mate came up to me and just croached down and wouldn't leave. Wanted patting and patting and patting. Just hunkered there a good five minutes. It was so poignant.

Thank you.... Very quiet around here. Everyone is just tip-toeing around. Chickens have never been quieter....

Sad to report she died today at 11:30am. She survived a few days here, but I guess it all just wasn't recoverable. The swelling had gone down (a bit) but I think the lesion had grown. She liked the warm bath and the hot water did make her pant and I was able to squirt lots of corid water into...

It's really hard to get perspective on it from the pictures. I was trying to show how swollen the lower half is. When I blow up the pictures I can see the edge of that lesion is just *ripped*. It doesn't look like it could even be that recent, it's so crusted over? But I don't know. I'll soak it...

OK, thanks. The flock all seem to get along so I'd be really surprised if it were a pecking injury. I could be wrong of course, but I can't imagine I wouldn't have seen this sort of behavior. She seems very up and down. A moment ago she was actually up and running, and sometimes she's just...

ok, definitive poop picture.

OK, this will sound massively stupid... I realize that underneath the vent is a large, approx 2cm oval lesion. I think it's possible blood might have been coming from that? It's painful to her but not with blood on it now. I will try to attach photos... except what I took just doesn't show it, I...

I realized the dosage I mixed up yesterday wasn't really right; the package is crazy-confusing. I put 3Tb in 1.5gal water but that's not right for a "drench". Today I mixed 3 fl oz into 16oz water (1 pint) and have fed that to her while sitting in a warm bath. she loves the water, she's probably...

I think that photo may be upside down... hard to tell but I know the lay of the actual-land, as it were. The blood was trickling from her vent. It was definitely from inside, (1) I could see it and (2) much later when I took her from the water and she dried off, blood encrusted the vent a bit...

Hi Eggcessive, sorry to call you off of offline, lol. Yeah, perhaps just that - a reproductive issue. I believe you or another has opined as much in the past. It's just that the poop looks like the pictures of coccidiosis. So I borrowed some corid from a friend and made up a batch for the...

@Eggcessive - is this coccidiosis? The poop looks like it. I think you were giving advice about this in another thread. What dosage should I use with an adult? I'm estimating she's at least 5 lb...

Hi - 5yo Rhode Island Red - she hasn't laid much for a good 2 years, when I give her calcium pills as suggested here, she used to lay sometimes sporadically but not for a good while. I've witnessed several no-shell and soft-shell eggs. Her tail end really droops and lots of gooky ick on the...
