What's wrong with my pullets?
As most of you know, I'm new to the game fowl thing, so sorry if this is something common. One of them used to be real energetic and now she is barely active and doesn't eat near as fast as she used to and she stays puffed up all the time as if she's cold. The other seems fine exept she has trouble walking all of the sudden, she takes a few steps every now and then and sometimes has to flap her wings to keep her balance, she can't even roost at night. Any help is appreciated.

hELLO, as you described your beloved pullet, I think, and its quite patent that she is sick.
Low resistance, maybe respiratory or nervous system or muscular problem/disorder like limber neck.
Try to call Doc Teddy, DVM par excellance, he knows best.

Companiero Atty. Bombit Abad is correct, call Doc TJT for complete info.
I was just thinking, the pullet is having her period thus feeling a bit sick. She needs extra care, really.
