    Chicken crouching/not moving around - sudden change in behavior

    Chicken crouching/not moving around - sudden change in behavior

    She loves the scrambled egg, and I floated it in medicated water. I have not been able to give her a drench, can't hold her still enough (I'm solo animal caring until middle of the week). Hen is doing better today! She is now walking around normally and fussing. I'm continuing flock...

    Chicken crouching/not moving around - sudden change in behavior

    Not bobbing much, she's mostly just sitting in one spot now. Yes, I think she is pushing... She has that arch in her back like she's tucking her butt down, tail flicking a tiny bit.
