burnie69 376 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Sounds to me it needs worming.Dose of flubenvet will do the trick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
artic 595 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Give the hen "Respite" 5ml in its water, and a teaspoon of oil down her, then massage her crop area. When was she last wormed? People will say anything to get rid of their stock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
