Is it pnemonia?
When chicks hatch and get tossed a a box to go for a ride to their new home, they can vary in how long one has been hatched from one to the next. Some have gotten their bearings more than others. A couple of hours makes a big difference.
When you have mail order chicks or any new chicks that...

Dear backyard forum,
I'm very concerned and hoping you can help me.
I only have two silkies, Sophie and Suzie, less than 2 months old. Yesterday morning Suzie became all twisted, even moreso in her neck, but she can't stand up most of the time and has begun having severe dystonic problems...
MY month old silkies and 3 week old Seramas have the most awesome diareah I have seen. 2 silkies and four seramas.
The exciment (pooh) has now lost its color and is almost like water with a dot in the middle. It varies some from bird to bird. Some one is haveing normal droppings, but I don't...
