A new addition to the yard.

Old Henry has come here to live out her remaining time, she's 10+ years old and full of arthritis.

Nice looking chook! Arthritis sucks I can assure you.

I've had to bring her inside into the lounge room, she's dying i think. She's stopped walking and when she tries to stand she falls over, her not eating or drinking has gotten worse.

She's been constantly sleeping since yesterday and hasn't eaten or drank since the day before yesterday.

She doesn't seem in pain but i dont know if i should let nature take her, or do i stress her and take her to the vet to be put to sleep?

That is always a tough decision. Wish I had some good advice.

Yes, from the souns of it, she is on her way across the bridge.
