Hello-
I need some advice on what to do. About 2 weeks ago my 5 month old black sex link chick was sleeping in eggbox which is unusual. She easily let me pick her up which is also strange. I attempt to place her on roost but she fell off 3 times immediately after I let go. I quarantined her to my shed. I gave her apple cider vinegar to start with. For the last 5 days she has been on Bird Sulfa ( sulfamethoxazole Trimethoprim). I have tried giving plain yogurt a few times. Her appetite seems perfectly fine. She continues to walk like she is drunk tho using her wings to attempt to balance herself. Her R foot curls when not in use but flattens when she puts weight on it. I do not see or feel any injuries. She was acting fine earlier in the day. HELP!?! WHAT can this be, do I throw in the towel and put her out of her misery or wait it out longer.
