Chirping
My 3 week old bantam chick has been limping all day today, and becoming more and more lethargic, sometimes even listless. She just lays down and keeps her eyes closed. I have been forcing fluids every hour, and she is still eating some, and still pooping. I have read about coccidiosis, and wondering if this is what she has?
I tried isolating her from the rest of the chicks, but she just became frantic and was peeping to get back to them. So for now she is still with them, just laying on the side lines sleeping. Do I just let her rest?
I am heading to town tomorrow afternoon and can pick up some medications (maybe Corid) if needed. Any advice?? Or just some words of encouragement? It's so sad to think she probably won't make it.
