    Broiler Chick Won't Walk

    It's been given nutri-drench, electrolytes, and a little rooster booster poultry cell. It refuses to eat anything I offer it, including hard-boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, yogurt, and honey.

    Broiler Chick Won't Walk

    I have a little broiler chick I found at TSC that couldn't walk so I took it home Thursday. It's doing much better now, it can stand and will run for short distances before it plops down and drifts off to sleep. It very well may be a Cornish x but who knows.

    TSC Weak Baby Help

    Thank you! I will do that for her. She still cannot walk like a normal chick can and she will take a few steps then get tired and fall asleep. I minced the scrambled eggs into a mush but she wouldn't go for it. I got her to eat a tiny bit of plain yogurt too.

    TSC Weak Baby Help

    I went to TSC to get shavings but stoppped to look at the babies where I saw a standard chick was in with a few bantams and it couldn't walk well at all and was just laying there with the other babies pecking it's eyes.
