The poor thing is to weak to try and get to a waterer to drink out of it. I have to feed it with the end of a chopstick and give water with an eyedropper. Chick is doing better this morning. She had an appetite this morning for the first time in 2 days! She was kinda just letting what you fed...

Welcome!!! And i wouldn't go to the flea markets either. Check craigslist for folks nearby that you can see the enviroment they have been in. Good luck finding your babies and keep in mind chickens are worse than chips! You can't have just one!!! Lol
I have a chick with possibly cocci. I have bought the corid and mixed it up. I was just wonder how often i should give the chick the solution with my dropper and how much at a time.
I have fat free milk and cottage cheese. Either of those work? I also heard sugar water but i dont know how much to give. I seen how much to mix but not how much to give with like a dropper.
I hope it makes it through the night till i can get to a feed store to get some. She is not looking good at the present moment. She is in the house with us and is like she is barely breathing she is not doing good at all.
