Hope the others stay healthy.

Not good. How does her belly look/feel? You may need too give her a C&D antotoxin and baking soda and treat her if/like she has bloat. Chicken feed can kill her. It is nutritionally way off balance by itself and it expands inside of her which can result in bloat and/or rumen acidosis.

A fecal is still a good idea. She is prime age for parasites.

Oh, chickens aren't ruminants.

Are we talking about chicken SCRATCH here? Because I have an eight month pygmy who got in heat so I seperated her from the boys but my only other pen is being housed with my lone chicken, Baby Girl. (She comes from a different flock and picks bloody fights with the others)
Anywho, I throw scratch in there and put sweet feed in there too, and I've seen Scout (my pygmy) eating the scratch from the dirt instead of her feed and I thought nothing of it. She is seeming constantly bloated though and I've been extremely worried that I just seperated her too late when she went into heat and has been bred. Is this what's causing bloat?
