Hi there! I noticed today that one of my 2 and a half year old hens, Rhody, is acting slightly lethargic today. Upon looking closer I noticed that her comb has a very small flop to it that didn’t used to be there, and it’s tips at the back are slightly darker/more discoloured than normal. Also, her crop feels empty so I don’t know if that means she hasn’t been eating or something else. I checked her over and she has no other symptoms of anything.
I may just be exaggerating (I recently lost one of my precious hens for the first time and want to be extra safe with my remaining girls), but I want to be fast acting in case anything is wrong. Thanks for may help! I will attach a picture of Rhody’s comb below.
Note: Rhody has not been laying for a while, though I suspect it’s because of her age
