Update: She is doing better. Within 24 hours she was up and running around with the flock. Still had loose stools, but her over-all behavior is fairly normal. Although I'm still not sure if the Corid is responsible for her turn around. The others are still asymptomatic.

Eggcessive- Thanks for responding. If this happened last week (or the week before), I would agree about the heat. We had a terrible heat wave. But the last two days have been fairly mild comparatively. Today was mid 80's with a nice cooling rainstorm. Yesterday the temps were decent as well...

anyone? Thoughts? I started her and the others on corid.......... just to be safe...

My EE is suddenly behaving sickly. This morning she was fine. She is getting close to laying her first egg as I have noticed the typical changes in her features. This afternoon she is lethargic. She is walking very s-l-o-w-l-y, seems sleepy. feathers are NOT ruffled. I can pick her up with no...

That's what we are hoping too!

Why do my pics load sideways?

Thanks Dawg53! I'd not heard of the tomato juice. I hadn't thought that capillary worms would apply since she is so young and have had her since she was 5 days old. I'll post an update in a few days.

Raising the head half the time to yawn... no honking. As for the scratching... no more than usual. As for the shaking... only when you are petting and get too close to the ear... but all my chicks do that.

Last night her crop was full.... This morning her crop was empty... good sign! Her persistent yawning was minimal at sunrise also. Then she started back up with full open-beak yawning, and hasn't stopped. I'm not saying that it is on and off... it is persistent/constant She is fairly active...

?

anyone else have advice??

This one has been doing it all day.... I know her crop is fine, but just in case, I gave her a little olive oil.
