My silkie hen has been like this for a long time. It's not mareks. She doesnt lay eggs yet either. Her crop is kinda full she hasnt eaten. No broken bones.
My rooster's respiratory infection is healed but, he has a fluid in his crop. I made him throw up to get it out. I now feel beads but still feel a bit of fluid and he has a poop urine mix that he poops sometimes. Also I have a silkie hen who eats and drinks but doesn't run around much well...
I'm a wild life rehabilitation. So it's not illegal for me. They were abandoned and the eggs are from my ducks. That I had gotten from a call and they bred. All the ducks are not related.
Is the brooder nice and heated. Well, put medicated chick food in there. With water. Make sure its 100F and decrease it 5 degrees every week until about 10 weeks old.
