Hiya, here is a pic from a few minutes ago. She is a much better colour in her crown, not doing the mouth thing as much, the eye is less pussy looking but still bubbly. She feels so skinny when I pick her up bi made her oats with milk and yoghurt as I read this was good for fattening up, but she only ate bean sprouts and some of her grain mix.

Any recommendations when to putting back in with her friend?
Thanks!!

She looks heaps better wow big recovery. Don't put her back until she in 100% so at least another 7-10 days and keep up the treatment that is VERY important or it will return congt334 you have done well

Hi all, pleased to let you know Argi is back in with her friend and her comb is all red again and her eye looks great... Still a bit different to the other one but healthy looking... Thanks for all your advice and support! So glad to have you all here! than657

Hi everyone,
This is my first post. I've owned chickens for a month now.. I am worried about my girl, Argentina. She was meant to be at point of lay when I got her but her comb is paler than her friends and appears a bit damaged. She sat on the nest a bit but I don't think she lays, and maybe is old? Her fave is more feathery than her friend.

I figured she would get better being spoilt and free range in the garden but she has an odd mouth movement with her beak I recorded yesterday to show you.... (I'm worming her tonight just incase) but today I couldn't find her and found her hiding in some bushes and one of her eyes really swollen and she is doing a lot more of that rubbing her eye on her wing u can see in this video.. The video is here and her beak movement at 11sec was the first concern but I think they eye thing may be more worrying now. Any advice please, I do care for them a lot and just want her to be well.

Thanks in advance.
