here we go again: Venus's sister Elvira 'leaking' clear fluid, help??

[Primchick88]

She just turned four so she has slowed down just a little bit. She’s tail up. Active and alert. She doesn’t eat as well as she used to, but she does have some interest in food and treats, not like before.
Drinks. A lot. Probably six months plus.

She used to be one of my heartiest hens. she has lost a little bit of weight. She shoots out a lot of water in her bowel movements and they are nothing but brown mush residue. RIR.

Sorry, but I keep thinking of things. Gave her the first dose of safeguard and will follow again in six days. no change.
I’ve had two other hens in the past to do this same thing one of them just continue to lose weight until it was her time and the other one’s abdomen swelled up like a hot balloon and could barely walk and it became her time.

The one with the swelling improved temporarily on coconut oil, probiotic and metronidazole, but when it returned, she suddenly gained a lot of swelling and was having trouble walking. The one that had continued just to waste had corid treatment, and later on acidified copper sulfate, neither of which helped.

The two that I lost were around three years old not doing much laying

Have you tried Moro's carrot soup yet? It can be given for bacterial gut issues and helps to restore healthy gut balance.

But only add half the amount of salt as chickens' kidneys are sensitive.

It won't help with the reproductive issue but it can help with diarrhea.
