I have a 7 week old BA rooster that appears to be very sick, about a week ago he started to walk funny and stumble all over the place, his walking keeps getting worse as you will see in the video below. He eats he drinks I have been giving him electorlytes in his water and started him on...

Maybe i should do medicated for a few days?
I got it from TSC with the rest of them as far a vaccination not sure. I do suspect it to be a roo which is why we have not been to a vet yet but don't really want it to be in pain either, The other BA that i got with them that is a roo has a lot more red in the comb and really big wattles, this...
