Found my chicken in the water. She is cold. Shivering. I rinsed her in lukewarm water and have her in the house, wrapped in a towel. What else can or should I do? Temps today were in the 30s ans went up to 50s. Not sure how long she was in the water but for sure several hours.
What is wrong with Red?!!?
I tried to take a video, it won’t allow me to load it. She’s basically gasping for air. Kinda like agonal breathing but she’s still active and alive. Sounds like bronchitis but no discharge from eyes or beak. She’s 5 years old. She has been staying in the coop...

Neither one is sitting on eggs. I am constantly taking them out of the coop and make them eat and scratch and drink and run around. They end up right back in the coop. It's...
my Easter egged disappeared into thin air about a month ago. I thought the hawk got her. Surprise! She showed up today with 9 (!!) little baby chicks! I am floored! What do I do now?!?! I have put a box with shavings in or run for now. I have to,get chick feed at the feed store tomorrow...
it started with one chicken 5 days ago...now I have two more ans they are worse, over night! Two more not acting right. Puffy eye, gurgling breathing. I quarantined the first and administered Tylon200. That one is better now and I have two more in quarantine and their eyes are worse.
