    Day old chick cannot walk, falls on side

    Wow! That's excellent, and thank you for writing it all up, so nice! Now after reading it, I think back to the one that I could not fix. Her leg stuck out straight all the time, not always bent like yours. More like the tendon was too tight. Maybe I should have wrapped it in a manner to...

    I'm so very sorry about the yellow one, but so very pleased to read that the black one is doing well!! If you could, and have the time, it would be awesome if you could describe exactly what all you did with the black one, especially the leg wrap. As you know, there isn't a whole lot of...

    :hugs I think I'd leave the wrap off for a bit, and see how he does. You can always rewrap it later. And as I said before, you will know when/if the time comes that either of them need put down. Try not to stress over it yet. Just hope for the best for now.

    Seems like I read something about wrapping the vet tape in a figure-8 pattern... did you read anything like that?

    I think separating them from the others is a good idea. And I don't blame you for trying to help. IF it gets to the point that they need to be put down, you will know when the time is right. You have to do what you are comfortable with doing... and when you are comfortable doing it. I wish I...

    Its a chick. I was actually thinking duckling at first, got my threads confused though. And I mainly tagged you because you are so good with medicines, doses, vitamins, odd problems, etc. And good overall recommendations. :)

    My mistake, I was thinking the wrong thing. I use the sav-a-chick stuff and can't even remember what all is in it. I know the electrolyte pack has extra vitamins in it. Tractor supply usually carries it, if you have one of those nearby.

    Well that sorta rules out parent stock. Not completely, but somewhat. How did you determine how much poly vi sol? I'm just trying to throw out thoughts...

    Are these eggs from your own stock or do you know anything about the parent birds?
