Urgent—treating sick hen in freezing weather

[Eggcessive]

The 1/2 tablet is fine to give. Are you still massaging her crop? You can give 1 tsp of coconut oil daily. Try to get plenty of fluids into her.

Thank you! Im not massing her crop bc it’s squishy not hard. I checked with a gloved finger in her vent to see if I could feel an egg, eggshell pieces, yolk….but she just seems like her GI tract is filled (poop on glove). Wonder if stool softener is worth a try? I also took her out of isolation, it was causing her stress. I’ll give more coconut oil now.
