Well, I'm not really seeing any improvement in his condition. In fact his overall appearance is getting worse. Nothing real noticeable, but his feathers are dingier looking and he lost a tail feather tonight. The smaller feathers are coming out also, but not tons, so it maybe normal. He is starting to smell but I'm not sure if I should give him a bath or not. I also feel like he is slowly starving. I am giving him the vitamins, egg yolk & water through an eye dropper. There is a dish of feed in with him, but I don't think he is being successful in his attempts to eat. I tried making a gruel out of his food & using the eye dropper, but like someone else had said ( on a post I read somewhere) it didn't work out very good. It is too thick for the eye dropper.
I did put 9 eggs (of his) in the incubator Saturday night, but since I want a rooster this time, I probably won't get one, LOL.
I think if he isn't better by Monday night, that will probably be his last night.
