Yes, it is the same. Keep it up for several times a day and hopefully she will survive this nasty experience.I gave her some milk thistle. Perhaps it's similar to holy thistle. I'll give her some more charcoal. I also gave her some vitamin E.

Morning update. The chick has survived the night, but is very weak, although she can stand. I syringed some sugar water and Nutri-drench into her crop, and I'm waiting to see if it perks her up. I may tube feed her in a bit if she shows signs the sugar water and Nutri-drench have boosted her.
Things point to the direction of this chick not getting any better. But we'll see.
Evening update. My chick appears to be showing slight improvement. Slight. Not out of the woods yet, by any means.
I committed to hourly tube feedings of Nutri-drench and raw egg and water. Just a little bit at a time so as not to overwhelm her system. By late afternoon, she was beginning to eat on her own.
I wish I knew what was going on inside her, how the poison is acting on her system, if permanent damage is occurring, if she's ever going to get well. It sure as heck did a number on my other chick.
IThe chick is shrinking. Weight loss, likely. She's weak, but was still managing to keep up with the other three chicks. I tried putting her on the perch tonight, but she fell off onto the sand. So I put her in the cat bed and laid a towel over her. She went right to sleep.
The other chicks didn't want to come into the coop tonight, stlll scared from the seizure they witnessed upon waking up this morning. I sure hope there's no rerun of it tomorrow morning. This chick probably won't make it, though. If I see no improvement come morning, I will euthanize.
Hoping you will continue to see improvement! Please let us know.any more news about your chick? that is really sad. sorry to hear it
