What’s wrong with Louise?
Our take
Hey chicken enthusiasts! 🐔 We’ve got a cluck-tastic mystery on our hands with poor Louise. For the past three weeks, she’s been coughing, and it’s only gotten worse—now another feathered friend seems to be joining the chorus! We’ve ordered VetRX and added essential oils to their water, but we’re scratching our heads over what else we can do. We checked her throat for parasites, but it was clear. One more thing: her crop feels a bit squishy, and while we’re no strangers to chicken care, we haven't faced any issues in six years, so we’re unsure what ‘normal’ feels like. If anyone has insights or experiences to share, we’d truly appreciate your wisdom! Let’s help Louise cluck her way back to health!

| Hey all, Seeking help with treating Louise. She started coughing like this three weeks ago, we thought it was random but it has persisted and gotten worse. Another chicken in our flock has it now too. We just ordered VetRX. We out essential oils in their water today, and we checked her throat for parasites and didn’t see any. Edit: her crop is also feeling squishy, but to be honest we haven’t had any problem with these birds in 6 years so we don’t have a reference for what her crop feels like when it’s ‘normal’ Any insights would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
