My runt BO is 11 weeks old. She looks more like a 6 weeks or so old. She does not look to be getting any bigger in the last several weeks. When she was younger she had feet sores so we separated her then she felt with being picked ok. She got a few sores from that but seemed to heal ok. I read on the forums to use blu-kote and she still has some purple feathers from that. Her comb is red and looks like she is missing some. She only has 3 little comb bumps (not sure what to call them. ) The scabs on her feet fell off about two weeks ago but today I saw her limping. Her one food looks like the skin split and peeled back like a open blister. This is my sweetest chick and I hate to see her constantly suffering from something. She has no feathers on her body and harly any growing in. I'm wondering what to do about her. I wonder if she is just a "weak link" so to speak. Will she ever catch up to the others or would it be kinder to put her to sleep?
