update, ive been giving her plenty of the sugar water and i also decided to try giving her just a little bit of corid just in case. shes not doing much better but she also hasnt gotten any worse at all.

just checked on her and it seems that shes unable to stand, she just falls back onto her side if she tries.

she has. ive warmed her up but it doesnt seem to do much. i dont have an oral syringe, ive been having to feed her with a dropper. her crop has been empty every morning shes been inside so far.

she seems worse today. shes weak from not eating enough and still very lethargic. do you happen to have any other ideas?

thank you! i will try that!

do you think thats why shes been acting sick? if so how should i get her feeling better?

shes a golden neck d'uccle. and her rooster seems fine and has no symptoms.

no, i only have one other bantam at the moment and hes been perfectly fine.

i had set up a heat lamp in her coop and always turned it on when it started to get below about 35F. do you think she couldve still gotten hypothermia?

it was about 20-30 degrees when she had been staying up in the coop but there is a heat light set up in the coop for when its too cold.

Treatment was successful as she no longer displays symptoms, but eventually she just stopped using her right leg completely and now just sits all...

i was actually just thinking earlier that she looks a lot like a d’Uccle! the same friend who gave me the eggs that fancy and cloud (my white/kinda blond frizzle) hatched from recently gave me a d’Uccle bantam as well, and i can’t help but think about how she looks just like fancy did, but only...

i had a broody hen a while back but her eggs weren’t fertile, so a friend gave me two eggs from her hens. fancy hatched from one of the eggs, and i got a white (with a little light blonde-ish color) frizzle with tiny black specks out of the other egg. i believe she may have had some silkies and...

hi, can anyone tell me what breed this hen is? i know she’s a type of bantam but i can’t figure out exactly what she is. her name is fancy, she passed away in the beginning of february and i’ve been trying to figure out what breed she was. she was so sweet and adorable too. if it helps, her eggs...
