    Hen with severe respiratory issues, sudden onset

    Thank you for your help! It was indeed very scary. My wife renamed her “Henny” today. I walked out to check on her and my wife was in the back yard with her “worming”. I had made her an egg with cyan pepper and oregano and had brought it out to make sure she ate. Well she ate the night...

    Hen with severe respiratory issues, sudden onset

    So just got off the phone with the vet. Still no amoxicillin, they are vapor locked on how long to avoid eggs and meat. Meanwhile, my chicken is in quarantine. She seems to be more upset than sick at this point. She still has a hoarseness about her, but isn’t gasping for air nor cyanotic...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    God bless you @Winderdear still waiting on the vet, but she doesn’t seem super sick, more agitated that she is limited to the small area. She drank and did eat some crumble. Her sister “Dale”, I call her Red, seemed to be looking for her tonight around roosting time. Might have been my...

    Hen with severe respiratory issues, sudden onset

    I just checked on her and she appears to be resting comfortably. I don’t hear her breathing hard. I spoke to someone who is knowledgeable about chickens in my area, and his first words was aspiration. Much like @Wyorp Rock suggested. Maybe she aspirated a gnat? Or maybe some other bug? My...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    Nine today from 11 ladies. “Chip” is still in quarantine and didn’t lay (can’t say I blame her). She is holding her own, waiting on our vet to get her antibiotics. Called today, hope tomorrow. She doesn’t appear to be suffering, MUCH better color but missing her flock.

    Hen with severe respiratory issues, sudden onset

    Update this morning: she seems to be a bit “better” this morning. Her breathing is much more normal and her comb and waddle are normal color. Her voice still crackles, but she isn’t needing to stretch her neck and open her beak to exchange air. Her crop emptied over night. She is eating...

    Hen with severe respiratory issues, sudden onset

    I just checked on her before laying down for the evening. She is laying down, resting. Her respiratory rate is still noisy and elevated. I did notice her not being as cyanotic as she was earlier, although I looked at her via flashlight which maybe alternating her color. Thank you, never thought...

    Hen with severe respiratory issues, sudden onset

    Hello! My hen “Chip” is suddenly sick. She is a Barnevelder who just had her year birthday the end of April. She has a sudden onset of sneezing, coughing, inspiratory and expiratory wheezing. She is cyanotic around her face. The good news is she is not lethargic, eating and drinking. She did...

    7 today, the ladies all survived their dip for mites and after a short “stun” period, they were back to their usual form. They didn’t like not being able to go into their coop or run while it dried.

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    7 today! 6 were in the boxes, and one got laid in front of the gator tire after I let them out for their evening free range time. Couldn’t figure out the guilty lady was, but at least I didn’t drive away and hear a crunch!
