My female Hen has gone through 3 litters. I gave her over a months break after the last litter and pulled the males out. I ended up putting the male back in as she was not eating hardly anything and looked...stressed.

The males are now back in and she is not eating still. She has plenty of meat left on her but I am very concerned.
I am thinking of taking her right out and putting her downstairs in her own pond for a while so she can figure **** out..or I guess not.


Looking for some suggestions!
 
when did she stop eating???

deff dont move the female.

she just needs some time and it will deff help w out the males being in there
 
Bad news. Pretty sure she is dying. Very pale almost grey tonight. Skin coming off her gills and still has not eaten since the last birth.

I would assume complications during pregnancy, or old age. Regardless I am pretty sure she is a gonner....:(
 
Sorry to hear that, I remember that she was pretty old. Do you know roughly how old?
