Hey everyone,
I need some advice regarding my chicken. She's been doing this weird panting and gasping for air thing and it only started tonight. She's about a year old, and the only thing different today was that I gave them some hard corn kernels before bed and they free-ranged a lot. All the other chickens are fine, but this one seems to be struggling.
I took her down from the roost and she didn't gasp anymore. She drank a lot of water and even ate some food. She's been laying eggs every day. I'm starting to wonder if this could be gape worm.
Has anyone else experienced this before? Does anyone have any advice on what I can do to help her? I would greatly appreciate any input or advice. Thank you!
