Hi all - one of my leghorn chickens is definitely unwell. Noticed over the past couple days she has been slow to exit the henhouse. She is less active, is in a hunker down stance (neck tucked in, tail down). Her already floppy comb is much floppier, and has some white dustiness on it. Her stool was green today. And as you can see in the photos her vent has lots of dried up yellowish/greenish poop around it. I have observed her eating and drinking, but far, far less than usual.
When I examined her (she was so easy to catch, when she is usually the hardest) I don't feel anything hard in her abdomen/belly area or crop. She didn't lay yesterday, but am fairly certain she has in the last few days based on the number of white eggs I collect.
I have 9 other chickens, and the rest all seem to be acting normally (eating, drinking, laying, active, etc.). It seems to just be her that is affected. She is already blind in one eye due to an injury she sustained before I got her. She is probably only 2 years old or so.
I sprayed her vent and comb with anti-microbial spray just in case.
Any input or follow-up questions are appreciated!
