I had a chick born with a yolk sac not fully absorbed which wasn’t a big deal but when I woke up one of my other birds got into his quarantine and nipped at his tummy and made it 100x worse and now I don’t know what to do. He was born with curve foot and had that stomach issue. Now he can’t even...
