Thank you for the suggestions! I took your wet food idea a step further and made it liquid enough for a syringe, but I had a hard time getting her to swallow until I found something she would nibble on her own. She ended up being interested in a mashed tomato of all things. For the last two...

How is she doing now? I hope she has started to pull through.

My chicken is not moving and doesn't seem to be eating or drinking. I found her in the coop yesterday afternoon and she wouldn't come out. I took her inside and cleaned her down, she gets really bad poopy butt. Her vent was clear and looked normal. She didn't change her behavior after the...

Thanks, hello!

Thank you, me too.
