The one thing that worked was electorlyte water(smart water) w/sugar (1 tsp sugar per gal) and then I also added sulmet. the sugar helped keep them going long enough to get the meds in them, I used a dropper/syringe at first then after 2 days no more...

    A quick Corid dosage question

    When I have to dose I use a gallon water jug and then just pour out 1/2 then change it later or add more later. We have 60 now in all stages of growth from 1 week to 1 year. Crazy days and good luck.

    Hen is droppy, won't eat and has runny poop

    How Old is she? at this point I would say that it may be her time has come to go to Chicken heaven, and there may be nothing you can do if she isnt eating. If you still want to try give her chick mash and see if she just needs a bit of easier to digest food, and maybe add a teaspoon of sugar per...

    Injured chick - questions

    Sounds like you are doing ok with him. I would also use the electrolite water(smart water) with sugar in it to help him out, and the eye dropper with liquid mash is a good idea. If his eye is all crusty you might want to clean it so it doesnt heal shut.
