Subject: What to do for our Bardrock ?

Our 18 month old Bard Rock hen, who is normally antisocial to us, began to stay close and not run away. Within a week, she began to limp and lean. During the next week she began to hunch and lay against the barn all day. During this time, she moved to and from the food and water then back to the wall. This week she is walking on her knees and trying to balance herself with her wings. She is becoming weaker each day. Today, her head is now pointing to the ground. The comb is still in good color and the feathers seem fine. The poop is brownish green with yellow mixed in the white. The vent seems to be normal. The only changes that have occurred is a move into a new chicken coop, which we have now determined is a little too small for the group, instead of the barn. We have moved some of the birds back to the barn. The chickens were given Vetrx last weekend, after they were showing signs of diarhrea.

Any light you can shed on this problem will be greatly appreciated.
Ruth
