She didn't make it. I had work at 8 and thanks to a surprise visit from my boss wasn't able to get out to run to the store until 12- and the closest store that had the Corid was 1:10h away. She was still breathing when I got back at 2:30 but died while I was diluting the liquid. Tried to give...

Looks like your original guess was right Eggcessive- coccidiosis

First poop since I got home at 7:00- now at 2:30. Seems like way too long. Labored breathing, fell back asleep and wouldn't wake. Is she doomed? Anyone familiar at all?

I found the root!! Her crop seems swollen/enlarged? Put her in a warm bath for her bum and with her feathers wet/not poofy I noticed it. Omg! What do I do now??

ND she's so docile it's scary. Like she just lets me flip her and poke her all over and inspect her and she doesn't hardly even chirp. It's like she doesn't have the energy to protest and its freaking me out. I keep looking for something abnormal on her but it's not obvious to me

Oh also- NO poop since I noticed around 7pm which is 3 hours ago. This has got to be a problem right? No pasty butt but could she be constipated?

She keeps falling asleep face down. Won't do anything and can hardly keep her eyes open long enough to get through drinking water.

Is it possible she got coccidiosis even when on medicated chick feed? I am not sure how her crop feels like vs how it's supposed to... It's my first batch of chicks ever They do go outside daily, they have starter feed available to them, water, dirt, grass, bugs etc. I've been starting them on...

My young chick (2 weeks maybe?) I just noticed she was listless, lethargic and hardly willing to move when I got home! I take them outside for a little sunshine and air after work and even with that she hasn't perked up. I got her to drink a few sips of water, but she won't eat her food. I even...

It's on it's way! Gotta beat this growth.

So we got 7 chicks, BBS Ameraucana's and noooo idea on the sexes. I tried with the help of google images for feather sexing, looking to see if they had "frowny" or "smiley" bums, and now with their combs but still no idea. As chicks I thought I may have crazily lucked out got 7/7 pullets but I...

Any idea on this baby? I go back and forth on my guess

A couple of my ameraucana's have blue eyes. It's almost creepy... And like they're wearing teeny colored contacts hahaha.
