One of my 20 week old polish chickens is acting almost as if it's drunk. I noticed 2-3 days ago she was just sitting back on her honches (I guess thats the term) and not really active. She went in to perch last night with the rest. Then today when it was time to come out she didnt come out. Just sitting on the floor. I brought her outside and she didnt move, just sat. I have her inside in the pet taxi and she moves backards. She will stretch her wings out and not close them back up to her. She will also fall over sideways. I took her our wrapped in a towel and fed her some scrambled eggs and dribbled some water with electolites and vitamins on her beak and she drank as much as I offered her. I checked her crop it doesnt feel full, and I dont see any injuries on her. She is back in the taxi now, and it's covered with a blanket to keep her resting.
Does anyone have any ideas?? I told my family...who really love this chicken that until I know whats wrong with her I cant try to fix her. Does anyone have any ideas of anything else I can do for her aside from taking her to a vet?
thanks
