Green leg hatch

Behavior info needed and hard to describe in writing such that it is meaningful.


Can he fly up to his roost? 

How is he holding his wings?


Does he appear to close his eyes a lot?


When he scratches for food, does he stumble a lot?
He doesnt fly

He always holds his wing down while walking

Yes he closes his eyes alot

And stumbles once an awhile like he is sick or something and hos face is always pale
 
Your location is not evident so I will assume it get cold at night where you are located. He needs to be kept warm and dry. Being out in direct sun during day is good.


Can you show a picture of his breast while holding him showing your hand squeezing his breast? This can indicate how poor he is.


Show some pictures of his stool / poop. We are looking for signs of blood or worms.


I do not normally suggest this but addition of electrolyte to his water may be helpful if he is currently dehydrated.

If poop shows signs of blood, then cocci most likely problem. I will then ask if he has been reared indoors until recently, if he was reared up off ground until recently, and was he recently acquired from somewhere else and put on ground with birds he was not raised with.


If worms, then hopefully we are not too late and you can get a dewormer into him without causing further problems.


To frank, with birds his size developing such health problems, I cull them unless it is a move related problem.

I stay in naples florida the weather is warm and by the feel of his breast he eats normal everything is normal he just seems like sick but idk how
 
Look at his stool even if he is already on roost. Get a complete grower formulation into him if he really appears sick.


Can you post a video showing his movement? Even pulling him off roost tonight would do.

Have you tried the mealworm trick I suggested?

i just started feedig him that he loves it
 
No its not that he just looks weak and acts different like tired but still eats good do you think he will become different as he gets older
 
Appetite is good.


Is it possible bird is simply hot?  He would walk around with wings held partially open away from body and pant a lot.  My birds that otherwise fly well and a lot avoid flying when hot.
Are the rooster tail suppose to feel realy lose????!!!!!
