No , I have not. I will schedule a follow up appointment with the vet and ask for it. I am wondering if his lack of appetite may have something to do with internal parasites or worms? After all he was a not very cared for chick when we rescued him :/ If a chicken has worms that makes him eat...

Well, today he crowed a lot and run a little more, however he is not eating much :/ I hope this is not another symtom.

Hello! I know is an old thread but you seem to know a lot about ACV. I have not been able to find any vinegars in my country that are apple cyder vinegar. They are natural vinegar's with apple flavor ¬¬ (I don't know what natural means for the producer of vinegar, so I do not know where...

Helloo!! Well today he crowed two times! His comb is red again and this morning ran a little bit when I was going to pick him up to check him. He still has that tremor though. Maybe he is still fighting his infection or maybe it is a vitamin/protein deficiency? @ClaireDL I hope your guy...

He survived the night! He seems less hot and shakes a little less, he doesn't pant and is a little more cheerfull. The vet says that he has an injury in his tongue and that probably he has also injured his neck and crop with whatever hurt his tongue and that probably was getting infected (thus...

Well the vet could not point it out but it seems it is a fever of a kind. I have just crossed my fingers and hope he will wake up tomorrow. :( We gave him some antibiotics vitamins and his favorite BOSS. My bf and I are very sad as he was our pet chicken T.T

:( Bad news. He didn't crow today either. He stayed in his perch and did not go down by himself to eat and drink. I have checked his crop and seems empty, I didn't feel any foreign objects and it was not inflamed so I don't know if sour crop is what he has. His breath seemed ok.... He seems...

Hi Sutremaine, His breath smells a little like fish going bad. I have read some threads that relates symptoms that my chick has such as shakes and smelly breath and found that it was Sour crop!!. But I do not know if that is what he has as I can not feel anything wrong with his crop. However...

Hi ClaireDL, D: Sorry for your little guy :( We started by giving him vitamins (will check if there is some B vitamin in those), and will continue with antibiotics. I hope it is not too late for him As for today he seems to be getting a little better, he is not panting as much (seems his...

Hello!! Please help!! My three month old chicken has for the past two days a slight tremor in his legs. He can walk and jump (but not as grounded as before), eats fairly the same and poops as usual. However he seems weak and his comb is slightly pale. He has been crowing for the past three...

Hello! I have a similar problem. I have a rescued baby cockerel (3 months old) that does not eat his food. I have tried pellets and crumbles and he doesn't eat it! I tried to fool him by giving him yogurt with his feed, he didn't buy it -and oddly he does not like yogurt either- Maybe he is...

Thanx you Mesofruffeh! I will try it out and then post his progress :) Yeah he is such a sweety can't help but to spoile him :)

Thank you!! I will check it out! :)

Hello everybody! I'm new here and although I have raised some chicks in the past (like ten years ago) now reading BYC I know that I was doing it wrong. Currently I am raising a baby chick (three month old) who was rescued from a premature dead. He was hit with something that left him unable to...
