I have an 11 week old chicken who for the last few days doesn't seem to be doing real well. At first I thought she was just low man on the pecking order as during feeding she would stay back and not come up like the others. She generally seems disinterested with the world, but now I am thinking she may be sick. She hangs back either on the ground or roost during meal times, she does eat some but not like the others, she seems more interested in the grit or shavings then the food. She does drink but not much, her color is ok, I think she might be a tad pale. And this morning she started walking very stiff, and she is laying down a lot like its hard for her to stand. All my others are looking good so I think its just her, I haven't been able to get a good look at her poop so I am not sure how that is looking but I'll post an update if I see her poop. I am just not sure what to do, these are our first chickens and it would be a shame to loose one so soon.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
